I've got a new A1 style sweatshirt.

No, not a social disease, but an A1 style sweatshirt / cardigan.

It seems reasonably well put together, is made from a polyester / cotton blend, and they're currently half price in the sale at the Luke website, though with a limited range of sizes.

The sizes come up a bit small (I got an XXXL for a 48" chest).

Been looking for something like this, cheers.

XXXL = 48?
Lord, it's like Disnsey's "it's a small world" when a 48 is a 3XL!

Welcome to high fashion, fellas. If you're not built like a coathanger, they don't need your business.

This is neat - it says "oughta be a sweater" to me somehow.

Yeah, kinda shameful. I guess it's the small guy's wanting to feel big with labels like that.
I am very fashionable, and many high end makers do BIG.
With these WWII era items, it's nigh impossible to get anything in a real XXXL or larger it seems.
That sweater is neat, as are other items on the Luke site. But all too small for me.
