In the chart below are the measurements for the suit which include the extra room required for wearing clothes underneath and room to maneuver.
For example, if you are 5'10" with a chest/waist/hip size of 40" you would fit into a medium which also includes extra room to maneuver, providing the leg, back and arm lengths are correct for you.
If you are 5'11 with a medium chest/waist/hip then order a large suit providing the leg, back and arm lengths are correct for you.
If you don't fit into the standard size ranges you will require a special cut suit unless you are happy to tuck any excess cloth into wellies/gauntlets.
We offer full support for all our customers; special cuts, embroidery and repairs.
