I am buying for someone with a large chest and big belly- pant size 44. Can you advise on sizing? Thanks.

I have a fairly large chest, pant size 36. I buy large and it's pretty snug but that's how I want this kind of shirt to be. Going off of the pants size I'd assume he's a little bigger than I am so I wouldn't go any less than XL. (If he wants it snug) I'd also suggest maybe going to a sporting goods store and trying them on then buying from Amazon.

I wear size 6 (36" chest) and got size S - like the fit very much. Not overstretch and not too loose/roomy.

I ordered the Large considering I am a 40-42 chest... works just fine... you might need to have someone do the initial adjustment/fitting with you.

I imagine large. I have a 42 chest and 30" waist. Bought large but medium would have been better. Not huge but a bit too big for me. Good luck

Michael...I'd err on the larger size. You obviously want this form fitting, but too tight is no good. I'm 6'1" and 195 (ok...200, but it's early) and I bought the XL, which I did based on other's reviews. The usual challenge with up-sizing is pant and sleeve length, which you don't need to worry about with this model. I've only worn the suit a couple of times since I bought it in September of last year, but I've been pleased with it.

Just got in town Simeon and saw your e-mail. I wear a 36R 30L, that's a large in this pants and they fit me perfect, they are light and very comfortable, and forget that I'm wearing hunting gear. It's worth the buy. Oh got to tell you they have adjustable tabs on the sides if they are a little to big, hope this infor.will help you. Good luck and stay safe on your hunts P.S. XL should fit just right

I bought an XL. It is long in the arms but more than comfortable in the chest. I do typically wear it over sweat shirts/hoodies.

I guessed and it fits fine. I ordered a X-large and am about 6'2" and about 44" around my chest/ upper back to give you an idea.

I'm 2 inches taller than you and 44 pounds heavier, and a large fits me nicely. I'd suggest you go with a medium.

Quality pant! Strong zipper. Sizing is the problem. The difficulty in size choice occurs when one falls into the upper ranges of each size. I fell into the medium zone (34 waist 32 length), but could not breath in them. Other reviewers had similar complaints. The elastic material was quality and actually very tight. I Retuned them. According to size chart you are upper zone for the large size and just below zone for Xl. Try them on as soon as you get them. The longer inseam should fit better. The Xl size may be too big but breathable. Also very doable with good 5.11 belt ;). I prefer more room over less. Hope this helps. Quality pant! Strong zipper. Sizing is the problem.

I had a very similar question. I did some Googling and found my way to www.shouldersback.net. Per their site, a medium will fit up to a 38" chest. The large fits up to a 50" chest. They also have a toll free number, 877-437-8434. If you still aren't sure on the sizing, give them a call. I'm sure they will be happy to help :-)

I'd recommend you go a size larger than you'd normally buy in underpants. I have a 29 inch waist and the small was a little snug. Not to the point where I couldn't wear it but it would've been more comfortable if I had gotten a medium.

jguitar answer sounds about right. As a comparison, the Oneill larges fit tight like a wetsuit (correctly) on guys with larger measurements, ie 46-48 jacket (chest) size. I was going to say a medium would be the largest you would go with a 36" chest, but for a snugger fit a small sounds good.

I have a 44 inch waist and ordered a XL and it's a little snug. It's loosened up a bit from washing. If I had it to do over I probably would've gone with the XXL.

I'm 6'0" 180 lbs. I bought Large. It fit very well in length. The waist is generous. I have a 40" chest and a 34" waist. There is plenty of room in the waist and chest for me to fit comfortably. If your waist is 38" or bigger, I might go with an XL. (Although the length will be significant)

Sorry to say, that although these are great pants, sizing can be an issue. I wear a 36 waist in jeans, and so bought lg and that seems to fit fine, you may want to try an XL, but make certain you try them on right away in case you have to make a return, as I did first time around. According to 5.11's sizing chart on their site, the size for you would be the top of the "L" or bottom of the "XL" size category - I would go to the higher end, with XL. You can chk 56.11's site and then go from there.

I found this online: White Sierra Men's Size Chart S M L XL XXL XXXL Chest 36-38 39-41 42-44 44-46 46-48 50-52 Waist 28-30 32-34 36-38 38-40 40-42 44-46 I played with the spacing above which got knocked out of whack after I cut and pasted the info here. Even after that it seems to go back to having all the letters crammed together for the sizes, but you should get the picture either way. Hope that helps! My XXXL pants did fit very well for my 44-46 size waist (depending on how good I have been for that week).
