Coats and Sizing

I'm trying to find a winter coat because my present one is shabby and I thought there might be some bargains now that Spring is here. I need one with a hood and zipped vertical pockets (not the angled pockets where stuff can fall out). Ideally it should be bright, certainly not dark.
I came across this coat which mostly fits the criteria in the green or khaki versions, but I can't make sense of the sizing. My chest size is 36 inches all the way round under the arms, but even the smallest sizes seem ridiculously big, what is going on here? Previously I've bought 34 or 36 inch garments assuming they refer to the chest size, but evidently not according to this guide.
