I am 5, 7.5 but waist is 38, back is 42 and 179 pounds, should I get the XLS?

I've found the O'Neill size chart to be spot on. If you can find a size in the chart that works, I'd feel confident you can trust it to be accurate.

I'm 5'7" and I got an XL. it comes off very short so I'd go with at least a 3XL

I'm about 93kg and 1m 85cm. The XL fits me fairly well but might be looser on you. One issue you might have with a large, however, is that the distance between inseam and neck is already somewhat short (almost uncomfortable) for me in the XL. I'd consider the large first, if I were you.

Either would probably work. I'm 6'0", 205 lbs, 36 waist and I wear a large. The XL felt like a diaper on me. The sizing guide is very accurate. Tighter is better IMHO. I wore 3 pair on RAGBRAI for 6 days and was never uncomfortable.

xl will be a tight fit, like wearing a large(regualr clothes size) ( my shirts i wear a xl) .... i had to send the xl back i got in it but it was a struggle. i'm 5'-9" 195-98lbs , 40 in waist . i have one xxl (1) and two xxxl (2). it takes some getting use to get in and out of the suit. after a while it will stretch a bit. you having a smaller waist then me xxl should fit you fine...if you have wide shoulders then the xxxl might do you bettter. hope this helps you out....

THE extra large I GOT WAS 36/30 SO I HAD TO RETURN (TOO SMALL IN WAIST). SO GO FOR large

I'm 5'10" 180lbs 30"waist and I got the Large but I wish I had tried a M to the large is kinda floppy and over all big on me, I'd try a M 1st if I was you.

You can go to the Diamondback site, plug in your height and inseam, and it will give you their recommendation. I'd (just about) bet if you have a 34 or longer inseam, you'd be well served with the XL. I was on the bubble, went L and sometimes wish I'd gone XL. It's a pretty decent bike. 105 is a long proven gearing system.

You could probably go either way. You want it snug so a med. might be better unless you think you might gain a little around the waist and grow out of it. I'm 5'11" 215 and large is a good fit. I'm going to order another one of these. They are cool.

I would definitely get at least the XL. I am 5'6 155 pounds and got the L, my husband is 6'2 and his waist is 36 and he got the XL

I bought them for my nephew. He prefers them bigger. The waist is pretty tight, so I would go with the XL.

Not sure about your weight. I am 6 ft 180 lbs and the large fits well for me

I also wear a 36 waist and the XL short fits great on me. Unless you are bulging at the seams, I would not increase the size of the short.JOSE RAQUEL

If you are 5'5" and 170lbs, I would recommend a large. If you're 5'5" and less than 175lbs, I would lean towards a medium. If you'e 5'5" and 190lbs+, I would recommend a XL.

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

I have the tan version. Im 5.10 175lbs and i tightened all the straps left and right almost all the way down to have a snug fit... there is 3 adjustable straps on each side.. they extend about 6 inches... my guess is that it would fit as long as u have a proportionate body considering ur not packin all that in front... check to see if they have a XL version... But im sure the belt would fit to size 38 waist... im 32 waist and i had to tighten it... there is plenty of room to extend the belt.

I went with the XL at 6'2" and 285 lbs. and it fits great. Hope that helps you decide.
