How does Gabba sizing/fit compare to a Rapha Softshell? I put on my Large softshell last night for the first time this year and it's super baggy around the chest. I have lost a bit of weight since I last wore it, but possibly more than I thought, because I don't remember it being annoyingly baggy last autumn/winter. With only a jersey or base layer underneath I think it'll look a bit of a bin bag this winter.
Question is this: if a large softshell is pretty baggy around my chest, what size Gabba should I go for? Is the shape of the jackets totally different? Wiggle suggests a Medium, but I'm a bit scared of Italian sizing making me look like a badly stuffed Italian sausage.
Thanks. I've ordered a medium from CRC - £126 with the BC discount. Will hopefully be ok if the Large softshell feels 'too big'. I'll keep the latter for commuting or properly cold rides.
Looking forward to some colder weather to try the Gabba out now...
