Check their site and go to the fitting room or something, that can help a little, but as I always say in sizing threads, XL or XXL nigga.

no need to go xl nor bigger, get a large to be safe. you might even be able to fit in a medium. i am like an inch or two inches shorter than you and i have a helly hansen jacket in a small. but it feels like im pushing it a bit.

I'm 6' and wear a HH medium (pants) and they fit me. So for somebody smaller that wants a parachute I'd recommend L or XL.

I'm 6' and I have a large HH convergent jacket... It fits just about right... though I wish it was a little narrower and longer. It's slightly shorter than what's pictured above. My extra large HH pants are almost uncomfortably baggy for my taste... but they look quite similar to the sizing of that Aeryx stuff.

Well I'm 6'1 and I had a L HH jacket this season, and I have XL tees like 2 inches longer than it. It barely covers my butt. SO get XL jacket and XXL pants..steeeeeezy

Does anyone know what the Jacket+Pant interface is on the Logan 5 stuff?...does it like zip/snap together to keep snow out? What's the deal, I'm wanting a one-piece, but if that interface turns that stuff into basically a one-piece, I might consider getting that set-up.

I'm in abit of a rut as to the right size pants. At the moment i'm in XL Ronin cargos but they are too short in the leg as they ride up pretty badly. Would a XXL pair of logan 5's look long enough on me i'm 6 3' and 190 pounds. In NZ there isn't anywhere to try them on so have to get them over the net. Cheers

you will definately want a belt.  im 6'2" and 160lbs and this is how an xl embargo pant from last year fits and a large code down jacket.  the pants have at least an extra 4 inches in the waist which kinda sucks but i think the length is pretty good.

Sounds like XXL will be the goer. Thanks heaps for the picture thats pretty much just what i was after. The waist size could be a prob but I have a belt and occasionaly wear hip pads so they should fill out okay with any luck

i forgot to add that they are more or less at my actual waist too, so they would be way baggier if i sagged them a little, but im not sure if i want that or not.

it depends....helly stuff is weird...... like their BC stuff has a slim fit, but the more park stuff has a baggyer fit (code down jacket, logan 5 stuff, etc)....soo you really have to try at the store.
