im 5'9/5'10 and want to get some second hand saga

is an XL too tall on someone like myself or can you tighten the elastic so it sits a bit high.
i know too tall is a personal matter, although i would preferably like the jacket to sit somewhere around the middle of my thigh

I'm 5' 11" and wear XL on a day-to-day basis. I had to cut hole in the bottom band and string a shoestring through there to make it tighter thiugh.

XL might be good for like a henrik or casabon look where it is right above your knee. But a large should go mid thigh. I am 6' and xl is perfect for what I prefer which is like 3/4 the way down the thigh

im 6 foot 3 inches and i ordered an XL. Lets just say my huge ass arm span didn't even make it out of the sleeves. Nobody unless your Big Black should have a Saga XL jacket. Get L or M

Im 5'10 and got a xl, and I'm trying to sell it. It wasn't that it's too long necessarily, it's that it's super wide. I have a xl from 09/10 (the year that it was super long) that fits better than this years because it's thinner

Get XL pants not large, my larges don't exactly fit the best. A little too small.

Yeh that looks really good. did you find that you really had to tighten the elastic? Or do you think that once your wearing the product with all your layering under it, its not actually as long as you measure it on yourself?
