I am 6 foot 4 inch's tall with a gut as well and I ordered their largest size 3-X and the jacket was very tight in the shoulders and the sleeve length was a bit short. This style of jacket is made for Bikers who are in good shape, so I would advise that you search for something from another company. This is a beautiful jacket but not made for Bikers with Beer guts.

I'm female and normally wear XL. I found the men's XL to fit the same as most XL sized clothing elsewhere. However, the women's sizes run a lot smaller. I had gone to Cabela's Sporting store and tried both men and women's Whilibird jackets. Although the jackets were the same size, the women's was a lot tighter in the torso section and the arms are very small. So, if you don't like shirts with pencil arm sleeves, then you will not like the women's version. I felt it limited my movement and uncomfortable. So, I went with the men's. Bottom line, your body shape probably needs to be long and evenly proportioned to get into the women's XL. The men's is more forgiving. I'm female and normally wear XL.

they don't really have sizes on them. I am 5"4"and 147Lbs and I got the medium. I wish I would have gotten the small because it wants to slide down my arm the more I use it. Wish I could be of more help!

you should get the 2x or 3x maybe, the arms may be a little long but they will fit

Yes, not all people do not have the same abdominal area. Some manufacturer have the width marked some don't. To find what is best foryou buy one and see how it fit and from there.

I would say yes. I am 6ft and fits me well. The arms are a little low but doesnt bother me.

I'm 5'2" at 115 pounds and wear a small. My friend is 5'6" at 185 pounds and wears a med. I have a med. size also, but the upper arm portion will not stay up, My friend likes the medium.

We did it by trying different sizes. My wife is 5'4" and 235lbs and she had to get the Depends ex-lg adjustable to get an excellent comfort fit. They are the largest you can find in most stores. The Silhouette's were too small.

I am 5"3, 130 lbs and I found the waistband really uncomfortable around my abdomen. If I got the medium it may or may not have helped, I think it's more to do with the way the seams are sewn together. The length of the small definitly fits better, I think the medium would be too long -- it wouldnt fit the way these pants are made to support various parts of the legs. Honestly, I don't think these pants were worth it in the end.

I would recommend watching the video and looking at their website to follow their sizing recommendations. For me, the size was not the issue. The fit was uncomfortable and really did nothing to help the vertical alignment of the spine. They also claim you can wear it under garments. Maybe a man can. But it is just bulky enough around the arms and under arms to make clothes fitting on top almost impossible. Good luck.

I'm 5'7" and the only thing I've got to say on the negative side is that the gear runs on the short side. Given your length, I'd go large. Besides, just make sure the order is fulfilled by Amazon you can easily return then for an exchange. If you've got the cash, you can even buy one in each size, try them on, and return the one you don't like. Still, large is my bet for you. The most important thing is to make sure you've got the right fit for the wrist guards, and these are some of the best I've used. The design is ergonomic, the fit on the lower hands is great, the guards for between your thumbs and hands is great, and the wrist extensions are solid. A bump on a shin or a scrape on an arm can heal quickly. A broken wrist because the guards don't fit right or give you proper coverage given the length you likely have on me, probably a good 2.5" reach each arm, go large and send them back if they're not right. You don't have much to lose if they're right the first time. Hope that helps. Good luck!

I'm not sure how tall you are (ie., long your arms are), Natasha. I'm fairly tall (5'7") and have long arms. I find that these will just barely make it from my wrist to the standard-length short sleeves of my Pearl-Izumi jersey (mid upper-arm). If however, you don't mind them not reaching to your wrists, you should be able to pull them up all the way to your armpit. Girth could be an issue however. they ARE tapered, widest at the upper-arm portion, and narrowest at the wrist. I don't believe that the average woman could comfortably wear the wrist portion high up the upper-arm. I hope this helps... I'm not sure how tall you are (ie., long your arms are), Natasha.

I'm looking for an answer to this as well. I'm 5'10" and 185lb. Most of the people answering questions here are in the 170lb range. I have a Fuji gi and the A4 top fits just right, but the A4 pants are kind of loose. Everyone here seems to think the pants run large, so what I would really like is to get an A4 top and, maybe, A3 pants. I wonder if anyone sells like that.

I am also 5 ft tall and unfortunately do not find the Schwinn 431 comfortable. Maybe I have short arms! I cannot use the arms without overreaching and getting unbalanced. My husband is trying to modify it as I type. I urge anyone considering any kind of sports equipment to try it out and do so with the proper technique Before Buying! Every body is proportionately different even if you are the same size and weight! Good Luck!

Doubtful, I'm 5' 6" and found the vest to be way too large. I'm 135 Lbs, but even so you'll have to modify the straps on the chest / gut in order to make it tighten up properly. As it sits now, the vest is very loose on me even after making new / smaller straps for it.

I am 6'1" and weigh 200 pounds. I bought the A4 and it is huge on me. It fits like a judo gi and the cuffs are past my wrists even after washing and drying in HOT over 5 times! When rolling with the A4 my opponent is always trying to choke me out using my own gi. I am buying an A2 or A3 and returning the A4.

If you are 5'10", I am sure this suit will not fit you. I am 5' even, and it would be a long stretch to get one of these bathing suits to fit. I'd try another brand, or find out if they carry them in a tall size. Good Luck!
