Planning on buying this item (2013 or 2014, opinions wlcm) for my bro, who is quite the large dude 5'10"/300-ish. Is there a major diff. btwn M or L?

you can see the size differences on timbuk2.com they have photos of each bag in each size carried by different people. They tell you how tall each person is carrying the bag. there is a difference between M and L, Large is pretty big..

I agree regarding the height. My husband is 6'0 and 210, but he says he thinks that the equipment would be fine for a man of your size.

Looks like I ordered sz Sm for my 8 yr old (now 9 yrs-3rd Gr) and sz Md for 9 yr old (now 10 yrs-5th Gr) last season. They are still wearing those sizes. I remember Lg was too large for skinny 10 yr old. I have another pair of white with blue strip Sz 7 for younger.

I have this item which I paid $70 for but could not use. It is very comfortable but not for a tall skinny guy. I will gladly see you this item for $50-used for 1/2 a block(essentially a trial to see if it was for me) If interested email me at DrCPsychman@aol.com and I'll ship it to you UPS.

You can go to the Diamondback site, plug in your height and inseam, and it will give you their recommendation. I'd (just about) bet if you have a 34 or longer inseam, you'd be well served with the XL. I was on the bubble, went L and sometimes wish I'd gone XL. It's a pretty decent bike. 105 is a long proven gearing system.

I would say a med. I'm 6'0 197 athletic built with long arms. the med fit good around the torso area but the arms were two small. so in my opinion the med should be perfect for you. hope it fits good.

Yes, you'll be fine. My buddy is 6.5 and he has no issues. I'm on it every day. Holds up nicely.

I like mediums, I'm 5'2" as well, depending on what you're using then for. The wrist guards are great, the knee pads are a bit thin, my friend got a large and the wrist guards are far too big.

I am 5'9' wide shouldered, 280lbs. I got an 8 and fits shoulders good, belly ok. I would try the 7. But each company makes them different. If you are a huskier build I like the karate gi's from proforce and will be getting a judo gi from them soon.

We have three in XL and one in the 5XL. We only use the tops not the pants. My son is 6'5", 260, broad shoulder athlete. I am busty but could probably wear the L, but I like the looseness (and its cheaper just to share the ones we have) Tight when working out is uncomfortable for me. We actually haven't opened the 5XL yet. My husband is a 3XLT, so to accommodate for liking it loose we ordered two sizes larger. They definitely make you sweat. Best to take off outdoors when you're done with your workout.I just noticed the reply below about the ripping/tearing. We've only had to replace ONE suit and I wash after every work out. I wash, use downy on the rinse cycle, and then hang to dry. We have three in XL and one in the 5XL. We only use the tops not the pants. My son is 6'5", 260, broad shoulder athlete.

The s/m and m/l are both 70 litre. The difference between the 2 is the size of the straps, waist belt, etc... s/m is supposed to be a better fit for a woman's back as opposed to a more broad male back.

I'm an average sized male and the M-XXL fits me great as its has about 6 inches of adjustment. I think it is a good size for most individuals except smaller adults or teens.

I would recommend the 55. My son has the 55 and he is 5'-5" and 125lbs...he loves his. These packs are great for the money! Happy trails :)

If you Google it you can find them after a bit of searching. If you're not a small guy, go for the largest size. We ordered that for our thin 15 year old son who is 5' 10" and would not have wanted it smaller. We returned the smaller size I ordered orginally, when I also recommended they add the dimensions to the website. Otherwise he loved it on his 9 day long high adventure Scout canoeing trip

It appears Amazon is out of the Large. How about the Large Short (size LS)? It states it is the same chest and waist size but probably a shorter torso as it is listed for someone 5'7" to 5'9". Also I'm 6'0", 178lbs with a 42" chest and 34" waist. I ordered a Large and found it tight in the chest and especially around my neck. I workout but am not "thick". I had to get an XL and it fits pretty good. I guess I'm trying to say that they run a little small. Love the wetsuit by the way!

The M fit me. I'm 5'9" 145 lbs. Just adjust the straps after you put it on.
