What size should I choose for a 34 waist

I would suggest a large. Personally I found the hook and loop straps on the sides will cinch down several sizes if needed.

I wear a 36" waist and I bought an extra large. Note that the waist does have elastic AND a Velcro belt. All sizes should fit a wide range.

I have a 34 inch waist and ordered the large size. They fit a little loose but can be tightened with the "belt". Can't answer the question about the XL size.

I am a 34 and because of what I carry I ordered a 35 and I think that you should allow a little give room because no ones waist stays the same for as long as these pants will last.

I am 6'4" 232 lbs with where a 34 pant and I got an XL and they fit great. I would say you should probably go M or L. It would probably depend if you are most concerned with waist or size or leg length. They stretch pretty well so I would say go with what fits your legs best.

I have a 34 inch waist and the large fits okay. I suggest that you go to the manufacturers website and look at their sizing chart. That is what I did.

I have a 34" waist and I bought size medium slightly tight but does the job hope that helps

I would go with the medium. I have a 34 waist and the large was just right. the length should not be an issue due to the elastic binding at the ankles.

I would go with a large or extra large if they have them. I am 5'6" with a 34" waist and the medium is a tight fit.

Maggie F. -I think what will help you the most is to first look at the Columbia sizing information here: http://www.columbia.com/Men's-Silver-Ridge™-Convertible-Pant/AM8004,default,pd.html#PDPSizeChart .My experience, as a male, is that I normally wear a 32 waist, and these pants were too tight, primarily in the thighs, especially for active wear. I reordered a 34 and they fit well. Would they work for a 34 waist? _Probably_, if you were exactly or slightly less than a 34. But that's just a guess. Again, weigh that against Columbia's sizing information.

You should order a "34." I checked two different name brands in my husband's closet (Savane and Levis); they were both 38's which is what I ordered in the convertible pants.

I have a 34 inch waist and the Large fits very snuggly. They have some stretch to them and they also have a clip belt so you might want to consider the XXL but I think you would be good either way.

My husband wears a 37 waist pant and they fit him well. The large would be too loose.

Get the XL. You can always return it, usually free of charge if it to small. I have a medium with a 34in waste. The jacket hangs big and the pants have draw string.

I think my 34 x 36 pair fit about right in the waist and quite a bit longer. But, long is good when you have trouble finding tall sizes.

I have a 38" waist and ordered large, which are fine for me. I think for a 36" you might want medium. They have an elastic waistband so they are pretty adaptable.Tom

I bought the large, have a 36" waist and it fits well with a little Velcro left over. So I believe a large would do for a 34" waist.
