My jacket is special blend and it's a large. I'm 5'11" and the jacket is pretty baggy on me. You might be able to get away with an extra large though, depends how baggy you like your outerwear.

Measure your chest width, just above the nips, about an inch under the armpits. Have this value fall in the range of the coat you want. /thread

Im 6ft2 185lbs and I wear a L in all the jackets ive bought or tried on. The XL were generally too big especially in the sleeves. Sounds like you'd definitely want an L, you still should have plenty of room to layer up underneath.
