The men’s mid-length fishtail parka lists a cotton/polyester material, cotton lining, zipper closure and Navy or Green choices. Its S–XL chart is a height-and-weight recommendation, not a set of finished jacket measurements. That distinction matters when the parka must fit over more than a thin shirt.

Find where the recommendation overlaps

S is suggested for 160–165 cm and 45–55 kg; M for 165–170 cm and 55–60 kg. Someone at 165 cm and 55 kg sits on the printed boundary of both rows. The listing says to choose the larger size when between sizes, but it does not give chest, shoulder, sleeve or hem widths to show the amount of extra room. A height/weight match is therefore only the first filter. It cannot prove that the sleeves reach correctly or that a sweater will fit beneath the zip.

Test the layer you intend to wear

Zip a jacket you already own over your usual layer. Measure its finished chest at the same level, shoulder span, sleeve from the same seam reference and back length; note whether you want more or less room. Ask MAXCT for those same finished dimensions on both adjacent parka sizes and for the measurement convention. If the chart suggests S but your own layered jacket needs more room than the S garment offers, compare M rather than relying on the “true-to-size” phrase alone.

The listing does not provide a water-resistance grade, insulation value or temperature test. Cotton lining and a zipper are construction details, not evidence of a particular weather performance. Confirm those attributes separately if the parka is intended for rain or severe cold.
