With 42 chest, 38 waist plus thermals and maybe fleece under, do you suggest Large or XL? Need to move easily while backpacking.

I'm 48,38 and can do a base layer and a thin fleece but not much more with an xl.

Well, this is just a guess but I would say XL sounds better for you. You need to try it on before buying it!

The XL would be your best bet. After all if it is a little baggie that isnt a bad thing.

That should be good, unless you want it to fit skin tight. I have a 48 inch chest and wear a 36 waist pant and I had to get an XL to fit my shoulders. It is still snug enough.

I brought a XXL. I have a 52 in chest and a 38 in waist and it fits great. The jacket also adjusts for the waist and it turns in to a vest for the really hot days.

If your chest measurement is no more than 42, size large will easily be sufficient. You need to get t to fit tight enough to do the most good. As to your height, the large will be plenty long. These things run long. I'm shorter than you are and mine is almost too long. Good luck. Hope this helps Remember to wash it in cold water and hang up to dry.

Probably XL. I'm a 34/36. I have M and L. The M fit perfect. The L would probably go to 38, but I'm not sure about 40. Good luck.

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).

I would think a medium but honestly you'd be better off going to a store and trying one on for size. There can be so many variables involved in fitting a pack its vital you get the correct fit otherwise you could end up disappointed. These are good packs, good enough to try on first before purchase, good luck.

Depends on how you wear your tactical clothes. I am 6' and have a 48-50" chest and wear an XL. I wear soft armor and plates over it so I want the shirt a little tighter to avoid any material bunching. I have a 2 XL for just going to the range. They are true to size and don't really shrink. They are more fitted in the chest area, but not restrictive.

I would try to get something larger. This isn't for long torso people. Average height person would be ok, but anything taller would probably be to talk for this pack.

I wear a 40 and sometimes 42 D and the xl/xxl worked just fine for me. I would say get this set and maybe a m/l (or whatever the set is that's one size smaller) because your size will change and you want to have what fits best.

I have a 36 inch chest and a medium fits over me wearing a jacket just right. I'd say maybe a large or X large.

5'7'' 165lb 40 chest, 31 waist. Picked up the medium and its pretty tight. Thinking about switching to large.

Im 5'8" about 190 44" chest. The xl fits snug, but comfortable. I think a large might be your best bet. If you are looking for a looser more roomy fit the xl would suit your needs

I'm 6' 230 lb and the 2XL fits me just right. So I would say an XL. I wear XL shirts but had to go 1 size up for the jacket. So whatever size shirt you wear I would say go one up. Regular shirt size, not muscle shirt size lol.

You should go with size XL. But I recommend an "Under Armour Men's Heatgear Sleeveless Tee". It is the new version of this sleeveless. It has mesh panels under the Armpits and is very comfortable to wear. It's made of 84% Polyester and 16% Elastan. Thumbs-up! Tristran.

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.
