Probably XL. I'm a 34/36. I have M and L. The M fit perfect. The L would probably go to 38, but I'm not sure about 40. Good luck.

Go to pearl izumi's website and they have a chart that is pretty exact. I have the same waist and ordered and XL and it fits great

I wear a 38 in jeans and ordered these in 38 and have a similar fit. It also has a little bit of elastic in the waist band if extra room is needed.

I have a 34 waist and ordered an xxl - fits good. The waist has both a drew string and elastic - it could easily expand out to 36 - 38, so I suspect you will have no problem with XXXL. Happy riding

Go XL, they have a very stretchy waistband so don't worry about it being too tight. And you can just use the drawstring if its slightly too big

Large fits my hubby at 36 inch waist. There is no shrinkage so I'm guessing size small. Hope that helps :)

I have a 36 inch waist and a large is very comfortable for me. I would assume that an extra large would fit 38 to 44 inches.

You order for comfort. What size underwear shorts do you wear? I would base my size then on that. I have a little over a 38 waist and I have used XL because I don't like tight fitting underwear or supporters.

I'm a straight up 38 waist and I ordered the 2XL. Fits perfectly. Just remember to tumble dry cool or line dry only - no high heat drying.

The details on Amazon says it fits up to a 51" waist. My 40" has no problems.

You can find the company's sizing info at this URL: http://www.exofficio.com/images/cust_serv/sizing_chart/ms-chart.png and as you can see, 38 falls into the L size while 40 falls into the XL size. I have about the same waist as you and I use the L size and it fits nicely. Hope this helps.

I recommend ordering a large size. I ordered the medium and there is only about 2 inches to spare. I have a 34 inch waist and would order a large if I ordered again.

I'm about a 32 waist, the x-large is good. You might want the xx-large but they might be to long. The seller was fast and pleasant about returns,

I first bought a XL. I am a 42 in. waist and it fit fine, but I just had hernia surgery and I wanted it a little tighter. So then I bought a large and it fits the way I wanted it. I would say a medium.

My waist is 38" and I ordered 36-42. It fits well. If you have a LARGE belly you might want tomeasure above your navel an order to fit that size.

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.
