you can see the size differences on timbuk2.com they have photos of each bag in each size carried by different people. They tell you how tall each person is carrying the bag. there is a difference between M and L, Large is pretty big..

Looks like I ordered sz Sm for my 8 yr old (now 9 yrs-3rd Gr) and sz Md for 9 yr old (now 10 yrs-5th Gr) last season. They are still wearing those sizes. I remember Lg was too large for skinny 10 yr old. I have another pair of white with blue strip Sz 7 for younger.

Hi, My guy is doing great with a medium at 60lb. I went ahead and got a large and its a little big but i kept and just adjusted it to his face. I have the medium as a back up even though its alittle older.

My wife and I both have them. They seem to run a tad big. I usually wear L, and L worked for me, but my wife's M ended up fitting me perfect. My wife was fine with the M (her normal size), but the S was perfect. You would probably like a L. Hope this helps

It appears Amazon is out of the Large. How about the Large Short (size LS)? It states it is the same chest and waist size but probably a shorter torso as it is listed for someone 5'7" to 5'9". Also I'm 6'0", 178lbs with a 42" chest and 34" waist. I ordered a Large and found it tight in the chest and especially around my neck. I workout but am not "thick". I had to get an XL and it fits pretty good. I guess I'm trying to say that they run a little small. Love the wetsuit by the way!

I am a big guy at 5'11 & 190 lbs. I have a 36" waist & I bought the two bottle version of this belt in a large & it is way too big. Usable, but I have to use my daughter's hair ties to hold down the excess belt. I found the 4 bottle version locally & tried on the medium & it fits me. As I still am losing weight as I train for a full marathon, going with the medium makes sense for me.

We bought L size, and the paints teared at the crouch the second time he used it. My husband is 6ft tall and the waist band come up to his chest. He weights about 220 and the jacket fits fine. So, I think a M for will fit fine for you. Of course, it a little bigger so you could where it on top of your clothes. Hope this help.

Glen, I'm the same size and have tried on both L and XL in a sports store. The Large length was long and not too bad but the waist was tighter than I wanted. The XL waist felt better but the length is pretty long. I bought the XL for the fit and just scrunched the legs. It's workable and I figured I want comfort verses looks.

I have two boys. One is 5'6" 150lb and wears the 13". My taller boy 5'9" 150lb tried the 13 and didn't like the length and ordered the 15" and is very happy with the 15"Also - this is an outstanding value CP. I would recommend it for anyone who cannot afford a Wilson Gold or Platinum, or an All-Star. This will work for 80mph. (JV and down).

I believe you will be just fine with the S/M size. I am approximately the same size as you.

I have the same 6' and 220 lbs; INSEAM for leg length (mine is 31") is more likely the deciding factor - Sam (below) has LONG legs, shorter torso, which for all of us, affects our posture (comfort) whilst riding....I'm still researching as too much stretching forward can be uncomfortable.Also, whether the handle bars can be adjusted UP and DOWN, plus extended away, or back to the rider, makes a huge difference in long distance riding comfort.

I would go with a "L" mine was an xl and fits fine. it's not tight at all. I really like it by the way. It is comfortable and not sweaty. Sometimes I even forget I am wearing the thing. I think it would be too big if you got the xl for him. Hope I am right with my info for you.

thats hard...im 62 and 210, and got the large tall. You should get the small regular, i think, but if it dosent fir you could return it

I would just go with standard to be safe. I've seen nothing but complaints about the large being too large.

I'm 5'9" 155lbs. I tried on both sizes in the store and ended up preferring the small/medium so I would definitely recommend the S/M at your stats.

As far as I know the pack size is the same. The s/m/l refers to the torso fit.

My son is a big guy about 6ft 2 and the large was great and plenty of room for adjustment. If you are average body with shoulders not too small I would get the medium and adjust it.
