Hi again
I have a question to all of u newschoolers. I am going to buy a new jacket and some new pants.
been looking at
Orage TJ Pro Model and have not really decided for which pants I want. (any suggestions?)
Saga Anomie jacket and pants
Armada Spectrum jacket and Quasar pants.

I am 6'2/6'3 feet tall. and around 165lbs
So which sizes should I wear in each brand? I bet that some brands make bigger jackets then others ;)

For Orage it depends on the fit.  The TJ comes in regular (I think) and tall.  The orage tall is big.  I am 5'11" and have the Blake in a large (relaxed fit) and it comes to like halfway down my thighs.  I think the tall fit is even bigger than the relaxed fit.  Regular fit will not be long enough, possibly 2xl but I tried on an xl Billy (reg fit) and it only came down to a little bit past my waist.

i'm 6'1 165lbs and i tried on my brother's TJ jacket in XL tall, and its absolutely huge on me. like, it would be uncomfortable for me to ski in kinda huge. if you want to ski in a dress, then it would be appropriate. he also has the shaper in a large tall, which fits much better, so i'd guess the tj in large would work pretty well. the shaper comes about halfway down my thigh. i ended up getting the retallack coat from orage in a large and it comes about 4 inches below my waist, which is more the fit i was looking for.

Heh. Okay, so one of you says that the TJ PM would fit me in L, and some the other one says that I should go for XXL. Hm...

Need more personal oppinions with sizes!

i'm about your size, just a little skinnier, and my saga L is pretty good, but XL wouldn't be rediculous at all.

Hm. I am worried about my legs, cuz I got really long legs. I use 33/34 in regular pants. So do you think L will be long enough? I can imagine that the XL pants is really wide, almost so wide that it will be uncomfortable, and don't look .that. good.

But if u had the choice to change your Saga set into XL, would u do it? And is how is the size of the jacket? arm lengt etc. The jacket is not really tight, is it? :P
