My son is a 27inch chest / 64 lbs and doesn't like when things are too tight. The small goes up to 28 inches in the chest. Should I order the medium

My son is 9 and his chest is 27 in. and he is 70lbs. We ordered the youth small, it is a snug fit I wouldn't say tight, but you want that. You wouldn't want it shifting while he is playing the game. He is the same way with tight fitting clothes but has never complained about it being to tight.

He never got chest hit.But while batting turned to miss being hit and the back pads help ...def recommed this product !

My son ordered a medium, he is 5"9 150. It fits him comfortably, this would fit him loosely if that is what he likes.

I have a fairly large chest, pant size 36. I buy large and it's pretty snug but that's how I want this kind of shirt to be. Going off of the pants size I'd assume he's a little bigger than I am so I wouldn't go any less than XL. (If he wants it snug) I'd also suggest maybe going to a sporting goods store and trying them on then buying from Amazon.

You should place the order for small. A medium would not do you justice, because it would be too loose.

I would get the medium. I went up a size for "move room" and it's perfect. He'll also grow into it...hopefully it will still fit next year.

I am 5-10", 42" chest, and 158#. The medium fit good. Sleaves are long so should fit you.

My son is 7 and the medium fits him perfectly. I originally ordered a large for him but it was way too big for him when it arrived. My son is about average for his age in size.

Here are my thoughts. I'm a 32" waist and a 42" chest. I only weigh about 158-160 lbs. However, I'm 5'10". The legs definitely aren't an issue on the suit since it comes only below the knee (not a full leg suit). I think the medium is right for your waist and shoulders also. Are you (forgive me for putting it this way) "only 5'5" because of a shorter torso or shorter legs? If you simply have short legs, then the medium would probably still be perfect. However, if your legs are longer and your torso is shorter, it might be only a slight issue. All that said, given your chest and waist, the small would still probably be constricting. I'd say to contact the seller in advance and tell them your concerns. That's exactly what I did and they were tremendously helpful (and right) about the sizing.

I would recommend a small. My son is 9 and 90lbs and the small fit him snug. We recently move up to a medium which provide more room.

I'm 6'5" and 215lbs. My chest measures 44 and I have a Large/Long coat on-hand. I'm swimming in it and am going to have it tailored. Looking at the sizes though doesn't make sense, considering the Large is for 41-44 inches and the medium is for 37-40 inches. You could probably have a 50" chest and still fit fine in the Large... I'm about to order a Medium/X-tra Long and try that out. I'm expecting that will also still have plenty of room.

I ordered a size large (12-14) for my son and he weighs 77 lbs and is 4'11-- the fit is great, room to grow but doesn't look too big. It's because he is so skinny. I think the med would have been too short in the sleeves. I like that he has room underneath to layer. He loves this coat! I think the large would be fine for your son- he would prob quickly grow out of the med as they seem to be close to the same size. He is slightly shorter but I don't think it would be too long. I hope this helps.

take Baxter's leash and wrap around his chest, measure the length, then you can order the correct size. Good luck

I had a very similar question. I did some Googling and found my way to www.shouldersback.net. Per their site, a medium will fit up to a 38" chest. The large fits up to a 50" chest. They also have a toll free number, 877-437-8434. If you still aren't sure on the sizing, give them a call. I'm sure they will be happy to help :-)

Hi, if you're looking for a fit exactly like the picture, I suggest Small. However, if you want it a bit loose, try the Medium. It all depends how you want to wear it. *Side note: My son has a few of these, and after several washes, he said the fit isn't as tight as when you first get it. Also, never but it in the dryer to preserve the stretch and to prevent the logo on chest from peeling and cracking! Hope it helps :)

Hi Danielle, my son is a pretty big 4 yo. 4T i too small. He wears mainly size 4 in little boy clothing now. Based on the other review (a 6 yo who wore a medium 8-10), i ordered the size small. I hope it works out! I'll post a review once it comes in.

I would think you would still be a medium. My son is 10 and the medium fits him fine.

I would recommend a small. My son is 4 and has both the small and the medium and the small fits way better. My 7 year old wears the medium.
