I ordered XL and I'm 6'1" I would go with xl, 42 inches is around my shins. (i know because a friend who's 6'5"ish has a xxlt first drop hoodie and i tried it on. my xxl first drop hoodie is around my knees)

It will be a mistake to get XLT

I was talking to tj.hall.

But yeah I think XL might be pushing it. Just on the edge, just like me and xlt. I am getting XL though, and I think that would be okay.

What you should do is grab a string, measure 37 inches, then cut to that length and put the end on the point where your shoulder meets your neck. If you like the length xl is the way to go. If not go Large.

You can also try that process with a tall tee. (without cutting it...)

You'll be okay. As long as you're fine with it being around the lower half of your knees.
