I'm 5'10 140 lbs.  Large is fine.  XL maybe but it would be massive.

Dang. 5'9, XXL? Oakley runs pretty big, usually. Maybe a large, but I think XXL might be pushing it.

Unless of course, you like gorilla steeze

That will be like a dress on top with some pants for a dude on stilts on the bottom and you won't be able to go fast at all because you'll be blown back by the parachute that is your outfit!

Actually oakley runs pretty small. Their xxl jackets fit me about the same as my helly hanson xl jacket fit me. But some models run smaller than others.

Also I have the 3-1 jacket and that is kinda long also.

It varies jacket to jacket.  I dont think you want bigger than a large.

XXL and you will look like Tanner in some of the pipe comps last year where his jacket was down to his knees (dress steez). Yes I think this looks dumb. Yes commenting on fashion is lame.

You gotta realize that not everyones body is the same proportions.  Some people have longer legs and shorter upper bodies and shit.

Oakley has two fits:   Loose and Baggy fit (called park fit??)

(I am 6ft. 185lbs) I have had so many oakley outfits over the years, anything older than the last three years is all loose fit, I wear an XL to get the right steeze.

After that (newer) I am a large with the baggy or park fit. However I have a couple odd, sample, new pants that the large is massive on me this year. 
I like stuff baggy, but not redonkulous.

I'm rocking the Evo in a Large but also tried the distraction jacket in a large too. Both fit differently, they don't have one cut for all there pieces.

It really depends on you, M for more 'fitted' L for baggyness

to the rest of the thread, Oakley runs all over the place, like I would never really buy pants above M/L but got the crash pants in an XL this year, cos they ran a little tighter than every other pant out there.
i'm 510, and as a rough guide i would go M(j) and L(p) for comfy fit and L(j) XL(p) for baggyer
