Is the 38" length true to size? or is it really slightly less

I am not sure, it fits perfectly in the bed. This was a gift to our grandson so I couldn't measure for you. My daughter was very happy with it!

With all UA, depending on if you are okay with having clothing tight to your body, loose, or just having some give. I bought mine with having some give but it fits snug. I have a 38" chest and very broad shoulders. I fit snug up top and some give at the bottom with a 34" waste. I bought an XL. Just going by your waste you may want to try a Large. But that may confine you up top. The tops do have a no slip strip at the bottom of the shirt so should you tuck it in, it stays in place. I hope I helped in your decision, and answered any questions. Take care.

I had mine on the shortest setting and I am 5'2". Says it can go up to 38" tall.

The hips straps worked fine for me. On 34" waist I adjusted them to almost their smallest setting so you should be ok at 38". Plenty of padding and it stayed buckled just fine. You may already know how to adjust the waist belt properly but if not then read some posts.

I wear a 38 and ordered 40. it fits like a glove under my dutybelt. I would go 2 inches over if I were you, but all bodies are different.

Yes, when you purchase the pad it ask what size. I believe they sell 36,38,40, and 48". So just select the 40" when you place your order.

Mine is 60" (5 ft)... so it looks like the only consistency may be inconsistency.

I am a 38" waist. It is slightly loose on me. It still has some adjustment to go both directions. I hope this helps. As an ex Army Spec ops guy, most chest rigs always feel loose.

Mine measures 38 3/8 inches. So, unless there is some variation in production, you should be OK.

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.

Hi that is a hard question, I am a waist 38 and it feels like maybe a waist 42 is pushing it, but you can always try to fit it just make sure you can breathe thru out your work out comfortably.

I just measured it and it looks to be 38" at the base. You should be fine with this piece.

Mine is 36" and fits just fine. I tried to guestimate 41.25, that might be stretching it too much. Not enough to tuck underneath I'd thing IMHO.

Weird-must just be the number made. I'd never seen the 32" one. In retrospect I'm glad I got 40", but at the time I was thinking I'd probably go with 32 had it been available. (Dang...when I first got my 32 it seemed HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE, and now my 40" just looks 'okay', LOL)

No I wrote I wear a 32" and ordered a 38" and it fits great with couple extra notches
