WHAT SIZE SHOULD I BUY?

Refer to the size chart above to compare your body specifications to the garment measurements. If you’re in-between sizes you can likely size down if that’s your preference.

THE IMPORTANCE OF LAYERING FOR COLD WEATHER FISHING
  • Layers work as a system to keep you dry which keeps you comfortable.
  • Moisture is the enemy. Each layer has a vital, specific function, ultimately transporting moisture from core to surface layer.
  • Baselayers (1st layer-next to skin) are designed to keep sweat and moisture away from the body so that it will evaporate and keep you dry and comfortable.
  • Thermal layers (2nd layer) insulate and enhance warmth.
  • Outerwear (3rd layer) repels wind and water.
  • Activity level, weather and termperature influences the system- layers may be added or removed as needed.

No measuring tape? Use a piece of string and hold it alongside a ruler.

1. Chest

Measure around the widest part of your chest just below your armpits. The tape measure should be snug around your chest and shoulder blades.

2. Waist

Measure around your body at the point where your waistband typically rests.

3. Inseam

Measure from just below your crotch to the floor while wearing shoes you plan to pair with the pants. Alternatively, take a pair of pants that fit well and measure from the crotch to the bottom of the hem.

4. Sleeve Length

Measure from the center of the back of your neck to your elbow and continue down to your wrist.

Base Layer

Precision body contouring fit, minimal extra space.

Performance

Slightly more relaxed than the base layer, still snug.

Regular Fit

More relaxed than performance fits, but keeps shape.

Relaxed Fit

Maximum roominess, ample breathing space.
