I am 6'1", 75KG and 40" Chest. Would the XL size be too big for me?

I am looking for a Gilet and can buy this one at a good price from Evans but not sure if this would be too baggy for me?

    PI sizing is pretty accurate IME, so XL is likely to be pretty flappy
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    If the gillet is anything like the Zephrr jacket then I found sizes to be on the small side if anything - only little these Japanese :wink:

    I received the jacket today, I'm 183cm, 66kg, 35" chest and went for a small as per the sizing guide. The arms are perfect length but it's not got the longest body (although I haven't tried it with the rest of my kit on yet) but is nice fitting in the body.

    EDIT: Tried it with my kit on and it fits perfectly, very happy with it.
