I want to buy a jacket and the sizes are 48, 52, 56, what are these sizes 48=S 52=M 56=L?

Answer 1

if those are are men's sizes, usually the measurement is width of shoulders. Those are all very large sizes to me. found this on men's warehouse website:

Coat Size

Step 1: Measure your chest with the tape measure underneath your arms, across the shoulder blades, and over the largest part of your chest. The chest measurement is usually the size of the coat. You may add 1 inch to the measurement for a more relaxed fit.

Step 2: Measure the overarm with the tape measure around your shoulders with your arms down. Read the number you get and subtract 7 inches. For instance, if the measurement you get on the overarm is 49 inches, subtract 7 to get 42 (49 - 7 = 42).

The overarm measurement is important particularly if it is larger than the chest measurement. In this instance, you will need to fit your chest and upperarm rather than rely simply on the chest measurement alone. For instance, if your chest measurement is 40 inches and the overarm measurement is 49 inches (remember: subtract 7 from the overarm measurement), you likely will want to start with a size 42 coat to accommodate your larger upper arms and shoulder width.

Answer 2

I have a 48, 51 and 60. The gap wedge is perfect around the greens for me. I can open the face of it and play it like a sand wedge when needed. Or I can close my 60 degree face and play it like a sand wedge. I would take a 52 over a 56 any day because of that reason.....but it is down to what you feel you need. Wedges are your scoring tools, so why not drop a wood and take both wedges in the bag? Everybody is different. I know a golfer who doesn't have his 48 (PW) instead he has 52, 56 and 60. Your going to have a gap in your clubs somewhere so considering the 52 and opening the face slightly when wanted a little more loft, or playing more towards the front foot.
