My son is a 30/31 waist, stands 5'6" and medium fit him well...just beware, these pants have a delicate crotch and probably won't stand up to more than gentle use...yet they kept him warm and are comfortable so...good luck.

Get a medium. I have a 36 inch waist and wanted to get a large, but the medium fits perfect. I go three notches in out of eight

Id get the 36 waist and use a belt by truspec there are also tabs to make the pants fit more snug that can be pulled on each side for additional adjustment. Inseam if thrycome31 great if not get the 32 next best. I lost weight so I will be ordering smaller sizes.

Probably a Medium. My husband got the XL and has a 36 waist and he could have actually went with the large.

My son wears a 30 inch waist in jeans, and they fit him perfectly, but I think with them having an elastic waist, you would be fine.

I have a 38" waist and ordered large, which are fine for me. I think for a 36" you might want medium. They have an elastic waistband so they are pretty adaptable. Tom

I wear a 32" Levi's for reference. I got the large and they fit just as I want. However, they have a lot of elastic and adjustable velcro tabs on the side that can make them tighter so I think large could work for everything from 30" to 35". My point is that you can be a little off and they should be fine, but you should probably be looking at the xl.

I'm almost the same size as you, except my waist is 30" , "Medium" size is perfect for me.

My waist is 30" and it fit perfectly. I don't think it would be comfortable if your waist were any larger than 32".

I would say either may be fine... If you weight 30lbs less than me, maybe XS if you don't mind very fitted work out pants.

Fits me well. I have a 30" waist. That is over my pants and belt. I also wear a tactical flashlight and multi tool on my belt

I ordered a small and it was to small. I have a 32 waist.I would say go a little larger than what you need. We worked things out and I got a medium which fit me fine.

I have a 36" waist and bought the XL. If anything it's a HAIR too big, so I suspect the XL would be a perfect fit for your man.

I'm 5'7, 140 lbs w a 30 waist. The medium were a perfect fit, so a small may be the size you're looking for :). The mediums fit well, but we're close to being too long

If you want true compression with 31" waist, small. I'm 32 with a tape measure and have the small size. I do prefer to roll the waistband down when wearing them.

Size is selectable when you order. I have a 32" waist and the Medium fits me just fine, as it should from the size indication of 30" to 36".

A medium size would be best for the 33 inch waist. As the medium size fits up to a 34 1/2 inch waist. The range in waist size on a medium is between 30 and 34 1/2 inch. I bought a medium for my son and he has a 32 inch waist and his fit fine.
