I normally take XL in fitness pants - by all makers. Do I need to go to XXL in these?

I don't think so. There size is on the big size based on my own experience when I got their cargo pants. Hope that helps.

If you usually take xl, order these in xl, too. The waistband is stretchy (even though it might look tight at first).

well I may not give you a good answer, but I get mediums. in jeans and dress pants I wear 8's. the cargo pants are cut to wear low below the hips and the elastic waist band does roll.

I'm a 40 waist and the waist on the on the XX is a little big so as long as your thighs aren't the same size and your waist, the XX should be fine.

Hmmm, maybe large. These pants are great and made in usa I think. I am 5'7", 145, and I have to be very careful that the XL doesn't shrink !!! They have a small concept of large and extra large.

Hello! If you usually wear a medium then I believe it´s safe to order a medium in these pants, too. Like I said in my review, I wear a size 4 / small in pants and even though these Zumba pants look tiny, the fit perfectly because the waistband is very stretchy.

Not to counter the other answer, but I normally wear a size 34 waist, and regularly buy prAna pants in medium. I could not for the life of me fit comfortably in any of the mediums that I tried for the Sutra at a local store, mainly due to the facts that they aren't stretchy (the 3% lycra doesn't help at all) and don't have a fly. I now have a pair in large and they fit just fine. I would suggest checking them out at a local shop even though length isn't indicated on the labels and you might just have to re-hem them yourself.

By using the chart that was provided I ordered a XL. I then received a e-mail from the seller asking my weight and height. I responded with "My height is 5ft 11.5 inches weight 175 lbs". They sent this back to me the next morning. "Thanks for your quick respond,we do think size XL will be a little short for you,size XXL will be ok". They were correct the pants fit perfect. So I would go one size larger than what the chart reccomends.

Mine measured exactly at the boundary between the XL and XXL. I prefer the tighter fit. Neither the lower or higher will fall off or even slip but the greater compression seems like better prevention. Between that and after workout icing results seem better.

I have a 46"+ waist. and the xxl work well for me. These are just sweat pants with cargo pockets and a camo look.

I'm at 5'1 and the length of the pants will not matter because you can tie it upwards. At 155 lbs, I think you should order xxl. It's better to be safe. If it's a little big, you can have it altered. But if it is small, it's difficult to change.

I might go with the XXL. It should still have the compression feel and will be easier to get out of after a work out.

I'd say you were borderline. I am 5'8" 215# with a bit of a pot belly - the XXL is snug at my waist but still comfortable because the material on the back side is stretchy. The XXL is maybe an inch or two too long but that's OK on a bike. If you go with the XXXL you should be fine in the length and probably the waist also. The sizing sucks but other than that they are a fantastic piece of cycling clothing. A real value.

Hi Howard: Talked with my Uncle whom also tried on the outfit and he said you should order the XXL. Better to be a little larger than too small. The great thing about ordering through Amazon is they will take the product and exchange if you need to. Good Luck! Thanks for asking.

I purchased both a XL & XXL they run small I am a 36in waist and they fit tight both the XL & XXL seemed the same to me.

No order xxL !! I have 36'' waist and xxl fits perfectly. The xxl can fit 37 I believe, not sure about 38'. But xxxl can be too big.

I'm actually the same size (though you have a bit lower BF percentage) and I have found the XL to be comfortably snug for workouts. If you want to play it safe, go for the 2XL, but I wouldn't go higher than that. My XL extends about 8" below my waist, so length should be ok for you.

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.

xl will be a tight fit, like wearing a large(regualr clothes size) ( my shirts i wear a xl) .... i had to send the xl back i got in it but it was a struggle. i'm 5'-9" 195-98lbs , 40 in waist . i have one xxl (1) and two xxxl (2). it takes some getting use to get in and out of the suit. after a while it will stretch a bit. you having a smaller waist then me xxl should fit you fine...if you have wide shoulders then the xxxl might do you bettter. hope this helps you out....
