how much shrinkage? What size for 5'8" 165#, long arms?

Size 6, long enough for practice. Sleeves could be to close to call by the current tournament standards, if one has broad shoulders. Pants are to long to my taste. Not much shrinkage when washed cold, and hang dried. Overall I like it, very good value.

A2 should be the right size. A3 legs may be too long...you could always wash with hot water and put it in the dryer to shrink it down.

I'm 5"5 got an XL and it's slightly long for me but not a problem at all. I measured the sleeves for you. The length from the armpit to the wrist is 22 inches 27 imches from the shoulders to the wrist. Maybe you can assume that L will be slightly shorter. Hope that helps.

I am 5'8" but broad shoulders, if you are slim then a large should fit your slim frame. The sleeves seem long for me, but not a big deal.

Mine is packed away in a storage unit so I can't look at it now. I read all of the reviews and gauged what size I needed by the height and weight of other users. If you can find one at a sporting goods store to try on, that's what I did, then buy the size that's snug as you want to sweat in the thing.

Hi Howard, I would think a Large would work because it does shrink a bit, I wear xlarge 511 225 lbs, so as far as i know when i have ordered 5 now in total they ship large to me which is supposedly an XL. Good luck they are a nice comfortable shirt!

XXL is what fits me well. i am 6'2" 215 Lbs. It will probably be tight or worse on you. I think this is teh largest they make.

I'm 5'8", 175, 42" chest and bought a large. The sleeves are a little long on me but the rest fits like a glove. I'd say a large for a snug fit or an XL if you like some room. IMO

Warren,To be honest you are going to be real close to either fitting a size 8 or not fitting a size 8. The reason I say this is the Kung Fu Uniform is made of 100% cotton and will shrink during your first wash and dry cycle. If you was it in the washer and let it hang dry it will not shrink as much.Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.SteveThe Martial Arts Store(770) 441-9946

Go with the next size up. That s/m is too tight for me, and I am 5'5" at 165.

I'm a 7 1/2" across the knuckles. Will these shrink after washing and air drying? May I ask your opinion regarding a suitable size? Thank you.

I can only speak about the size I bought, Large\XL. My biceps are 17" and forearms are 14.5", lean. I think that is nearly the max for the L\XL. They fix comfortably, and snug. I bought the Large\Xl that didn't indicate a color. it was [White]. Which is ideal for me.

When I got mine I was 275 at 5'8" I got the A5 and just had the pants taken up, it's a little big but an A4 should work

It's hard to say. I bought a medium and it fits me perfectly. I'm 71.5in tall and 170lb. The arms are long enough which was my main concern. Being a jacket, it stops just below my waist. It's not extra long there. In a men's size I bet you could wear a medium but it would run a little long in the sleeve as a medium unless you have long arms. I'm a 34 sleeve in dress shirts.

I am 6" even and 188lbs I got a A2 fit good pants were big i mean reall big but very roomy. I think a A2 would work Maybe a A3 if you have monkey arm like me. Remember if you wash it in hot water and hot dry it will shrink. Hope this helps
