Klim gear and sizing ???

[FatDogX]

Help needed from the Klim experts out there!

Looking at upgrading some gear and I’ll have to order it but I’m wondering what sizes to go with. I researched and found some information but the problem is, that it seems like I’m always right in the middle for sizing.

I’m looking at the Togowtee Bibs, Valdez Jacket and a pair of Summit gloves.

As far as the gloves I measured just over 10 inches, so I would assume XL? Only reason I ask is that some gloves I wear a XXL.

As far as the coat and bibs, I’m 6 foot and run about 230 and have normally worn XL for a coat and bibs in the past. For me it’s always seems like a large fits a little snug and the XL is usually a little big.
As far as numbers,

Chest 48/49, Plus I wear a Tekvest so I’m not sure how much to add on for that?????
Waste 37 /38
Hips 42
Inseam 33
Sleeve 31

Oh, and I like long walks on the beach………………………wait a minute wrong website.

Any and all help or advice is welcome!!!!

I'm 6'3", 240lbs, 38 waist, 34/36 inseam, 48 chest, Xtra-Long arm length, and hands.

I wear both the Valdez jacket and Togwotee bibs in XL. I would think that the L would be too small for you, the XL would be better, but the arm and pant lengths might be a little long. I think that going a little bigger rather than small helps for freedom of movement and ability to layer as needed. For gloves, I wear XXL. You know what they say about guys with big hands.................big gloves!

Just curious, do you wear a Tekvest under your Valdez jacket?? If not how much extra room do you have??

I don't wear a Tekvest. Enough room for easy mobility right now, but a vest might make it snug. Hopefully more guys will comment and help you out.

My chest measurement is ball park with yours. I normally wear an XL, but in my Klim Power Cross pullover I wear a XXL to allow extra room for my Tech Vest. I don't like feeling restricted. The sleeves are long for me, but the cuffs cinch up fine, so not a big deal. Your arms are a little bit longer than mine... Good luck

Thanks guys!

I checked last night and the Tekvest adds about 1 inch to 1.5 inches to the chest measurement. I actually thought it would be more.

FYI; the Tek Vest fills out the shoulders too...
