I am 5'5 175 solid should i go with 3 and let it shrink a little or 2?

3 for sure. I'm a 5'2 115 pound female and I got a 1 because I thought it would fit. It was so small on me I had to buy a new one!

Go with a size 3 and wash it on hot a couple times if it's a little too big.

I would use the 2213 because in my experience if it is rated for 40 then that is about max. I always go one or two sizes bigger.

I found that my height left me between sizes (a2-a3) as well. Frankly, both work, but if in doubt I would go with the larger size to prevent any chance of restricted movement, though you would also have more, and looser material to both choke and be choked with.

When I began I was 6'2" and 223lbs . I purchased this Gi in A5 and had to shrink the top immediately. However an A4 was slightly snug but in hindsight would have been a good fit. Currently at 6'2" and 195 an A4 fits very well. (I still wear my A5 and the pants are pretty big on me, top is Loose even after shrinking ) I would say u could go A4 and shrink it or A3 possibly (might get snug after first wash) : if this is your fighting weight I may get an A4. Sounds like with that height/wight u may be thick so in that case I would stay with an A4 you will probably need to hem your pants.

That's 5 Feet and almost 8 inches and about 165lbs. I'm just a little bigger than that. I use an A2 but it's a little big for me. So you could probably go A1, depending on how much you think you might grow. My Gi is shrinking a little after 6 months of weekly use and washings, but it's still big for an A2.

I would go for the 3" pad and put a $30-40 mattress cover on top. The cover keeps everything in place even during activity on the bed.Yes it will soften up a firm mattress about 20% (I have a 2" pad which I really like, I am 5'9" at 175lbs)

I'm 6'2' also and about 220 lbs. I know I purchased the largest size available (I think the XXL). I like some room so I can wear a good base layer if needed. If you are in a climate that gets below 20 F I would say go big so you can add sweatshirt under it comfortably.

Might be pushing it. I'm 5 8, and fits prefect. 6 1 would be max in my opinion

I'd say at least 7 inches fat. If your happy with the two dimension, you should be proportionally happy with the third.

I think you would be happy with the small one. They are a little bulky under the covers, but I am still happy I got mine. I'm 5'6" and I got the medium size.

I would go with the XL. Here is the reason: No one likes to feel too constricted when we know we are trying to cut weight. The outfit I purchases is overlarge for me -- but, it helps me to fee slimmer already. It helps me to "want" to work out. and there is nothing wrong with having legs too long on the pants when the whole package is getting to the right proportions. Also, I would recommend lounging around in the outfit a time or two during the week. It is comfortable for that as well, but you get used to wearing it. Purchase some Gold Bond or other medicated powder to use before putting it on, and/or after taking it off and after showers. Otherwise, chaffing could be a problem. Go for the XL - definitely!

I would go for size 3. Even though (according to Hyperflex chart) 3'4" and 28.5 lbs places her close to the top of size 2, a size 3 will give her some room to grow in.

I'm 5'8 190 #'s I went with a medium. If you need it skin tight, try a small. The medium will have a little play.

I think 17 would be good. I'm 5'2. I got the 17" frame, and it's a perfect size for me!

I am an average 5'11" 185lb male with decent size thighs and I got mediums. I would say if you feel like you have larger than average thighs then go with mediums, if not then small. FYI, my sleeves are falling apart after 3 months of use, alot of use. Moving on to TK sleeves, or rehbands if I can convince myself to spend that much.

I'm 5'9" at 150lbs. Based on the length you would need A2. My gi did not shrink too much. YMMV.

Depending on the water and air temps and the possibility of swimming, a 3.2 should be plenty in winter...Summer I move to a 1.8 or rash guard...
