I saw a picture of a kid who is 5'9 in first drop,  and he said the coat came to the top of his knees. So it would prob go about mid kneecap on you.

I feel like everyone just blows sizing way out of proportion. Last year I wore my friends XL saga and XL First Drop. Im 5' 7" and neither one of them touched my knee. And I felt completely comfortabe. Jackets near your knees isnt as impossible to ski in as you think.

I too am wondering this because i ordered a large but i have been hitting my growth spurt (currently at 5'5 or 5'6) and will probably continue to grow, should i go ahead and order an xl? There is no telling how much i will grown from now till december but part of me wants to get the xl just in case

You kids are all retarded. Just because the saga coat does not go to that one kids knees dosent mean it will not go down to your knees. Everyone is built differently. The kid who posted the pics most likely has a very long upper body. For most people who are 5'10, a XL saga coat will be past your knees

for real best way is to  find out is use a measurin  tape , cuz everyone different leg arm body measurments. wont be the same as Saga buddy here.. just use there chart and figure out where you want the jacket to come down on you ...find the length and use the chart takes 2 minutes.. i did it and all my ordered outerwear is perfect..im gettin First drop suit also... and im 5'7 and im goin with large

I have a friend who's 6' and buying the full suit with XLT jacket. I'm also 6' and getting only the XL, and my decision is based on the sizing chart - XLT is just too damn tall

I think it's hilarious how much you care about how other people look. I personally loved the fit of an XL jacket and it was 100% functional. I went a whole day without a problem and yes...i like my shit tall, that's why there is a hoodie underneath it which is even longer.

Well its not much of a mystery, you are built differently than kangbang. You probably have an extremely long upper body if an XL saga coat does not go past your knees if you are 5'7
