So im Buying the Show down Jacket and the Transfer Pant Striped from Helly hansen, but im a little skeptical on the sizes.
Im 5'11 and about 190 pounds so im stuck between large and extra large. I just dont want xl to be too hugggeee, but im scared small might be, well, too small. So can anyone tell me if their stuff runs big? My Siver suit was large and thats kinda feelin snug, but its been washed a billion times because its white.
any input is appreciated.
Thanks
Ben

I'm 6"1' 185 lbs and I wear H/H XL. I have an L jacket and its a little too small for me.

I'm 6'3 and I wear a XL jacket and XXL pant. I like my pants big though. I'd go with L if I were you. Maybe XL pants if you want them big.

thanks for the input so far. It seems like im right in the middle of the sizing options
xl is 38.5 inches at the waist vs. Large being 35.5 inches:::Im a 36 waist
As far are jackets go, im 5'10 which is 70 inches, The XL is 74in. and the Large is 72.5
im leaning towards xl as of now, but i still have some time to sleep on it.
anyone else?

go XL. i just got helly gear, and didn't even find the XL pants that big. also it depends on the model, some of their stuff is slimmer fitting than others. the XL jacket fits pretty good, long arms (im a monkey) and length is just past my rump. by the way im 5'10" 180

I had a helly hansen logan 5 setup, Large jacket, and Xl pants. The pants were huge, and the jacket was actually bigger than i thought. Fit me baggy and im 6'2. But it depends on what style jacket and stuff, cuz i know the logan runs a little bit bigger. Id say go with Xl just to be safe.

sounds like you need XL then, at least in the pants. i'm 5'8 and have 2 large HH jackets and they fit perfect on me... baggy but not gangsta baggy.
