I am 5'9" and 185 pounds. S/M or L/X? How can I determine which size I need if I am unable to try it on before purchase?

Hard to say. My opinion after trying several different vests and buying the wrong one originally, is they are very personal in shape and features and putting a few different models on with weight in them makes all the difference. In just a few seconds you can tell what works for you based on how it rides with weight in it. I'm 6", 185#, 33" waist, 42" chest and the L/XL is about perfect. The internet says the following: SIZING AT RIBCAGE (UNISEX) S/M: 30.5 - 33.5 in. / 78 - 85 cm L/XL: 33.5 in. + / 85 cm + Note: Measure wearing the clothes you intend to wear. Size down if in-between sizes. From here: http://www.ultramarathonrunningstore.com/Nathan-VAPORWRAP-Race-Hydration-Vest-p/vaporwrap.htm

I suggest measuring your arm where you will wear it. I wear mine on my upper arm.S/M fits 8.5"-11". M/L fits 11"-15". For people with larger arms, there is an extender that adds 3", according to Sporteer website 15"-18".

To choose a size for you: Female S/M Up to size 8 - L/XL Size 9 up to size 20 Men S/M Up to 34-inch waist - L/XL 35 inches to 47 inches. For example, I am a woman weighing 122 lbs and I use the L/LX - the S/M is very very small! Hope this helps, the ThermaCare wrap really works!

I am not sure what size you need, but I am 5'6" and 125 pounds and the small size fit me snugly. I was glad it was snug, because I did not want it to snag or catch while I was doing my race. Good luck :)

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

I'm 5'9 and 185 fairly muscular build and wear xl but I prefer it not so tight I can't breath. I'd prob recommend a large but it comes down to personal preference. Oh one other note I usually wear large in shirts in general and it's only with this particular under armour material that get xl but both these super hero ones and I have some long sleeve reg ones it is the same story.

Get what ever size you normally use. The suit its pretty good to size. If you buy Large then stick to that size.Plus they are pretty good with the exchange. I am 5'5 170lbs got the large & had to exchange to Med which is my usual size.

That really depends on you - how long your torso is. I am 5'8" with a long torso so I am able to wear both sizes. I have two girl friends that are shorter than me I would say pretty average size and they got the S/M and I adjusted it to fit them both really well. If you aren't sure, head to an REI or some place that carries them and try them on and have someone fit it for you and then get from Amazon.

Large would be best. I am 5'10 and 185lb. Ordered an XL and was way too big. Returned it for a L.

I'm 5'9" and so it could be right size is medium. If you are short, maybe size small. You tell me how tall are you and weight.

I suggest you call the company. They were very helpful with figuring out my sizing.

My hat is a S/M and fits great. I notice amazon is only listing Small and L/XL. I'd check with them and see if the Small isn't actually a s/m.

I'm pretty sure a s/m should fit a 34" waist, I bought the l/xl with a 38 inch waist and I think it would go as small as a 36 inch. But that would be pushing it,any smaller and it would not be tight enough for support. I hope I was able to help, but it's really hard to tell without actually trying the belt on.

Im 5'9 and 240lbs and my Large Short (LS) fits me like a glove. Im no expert, but I think a Medium Tall (MT) would be best suited for you. I would prolly suggest going to a board shop and trying on a few suits then ordering the one you want. Just be mindful that different manufacturers have different sizing specifications, but the Oneill Epic is such a hot seller, most shops have them in stock.

I am 5'9", 160lb, waist 34. I fit size medium or medium large wetsuit. You didn't mention your weight. My thought is that there may not be a wetsuit exactly fits you.However, my suggestion is that if your weight is heavier than me, you can choose medium large or large one, although it is much longer than you needed. But you can do something in your leg part and make it short.

Hmm, tough call. I'm 5'9", 160 and the large was a just a little loose fitting except for around my lower legs where it was very loose. I'm guessing a medium would have fit but would have been a little tight. So if you are looking for a tighter fit you should be ok.
