Tall tee's to the knees dude, although in this case its jackets. The point remains the same.

XL Xavier is enormous, not just in length, but also width, I had to get rid of mine and I'm 6". If you are only 5"4 I would suggest getting a M maybe. Should be more than enough if you want a baggy jacket.

Medium and if you are feeling like a true bone thug then take it to large.

Mmmhmm.
I tried the Xavier on when I was looking for jackets this season. I'm 6'2", the Medium goes well past my waist, just as long as my Large The North Face jacket, which is a 33" zipper length I think.

If you get a large, have fun with your sleeves.

im also looking for an orage. either the garrick or xavier. is the garrick a shell? and would it be heavy enough to be a good winter jacket? or would i have to wear a bunch of layers underneath?

also im 5'7 and growing a good amount. id like the jacket to be big but not huge, also i would want it to fit for the next few years. which size do you think?

If you're getting a shell, you're generally going to want to layer up in accordance to what the weather is like. I prefer shells, because I can do just that and not get too hot or too cold. Wear a base layer if you get an insulated jacket too, this just adds that extra warmth and protection, or add a wicking layer so the sweat doesn't stay on your body.
And get a Large, I might just be crazy though when it comes to sizing, it's what I wear.

I'll sell you my The North Face shell cheap.

I am 6'2".
And I have no idea, check the website? check around other sites that sell Orage outerwear? Ask your local Orage dealer?
