I'm going to buy an Arctic Armor suit.....

[lenyh17]

I'm 6'3" 260lbs.....33"-34" inseam...and take a tall jacket usually....from what I've read in the forums,I'm thinking I need an XXL in the AA plus(green and black)....

I'm in Canada on the prairies so I need the extra warmth of the fleece...can anybody confirm the sizing for me by what you know or have seen in the past with others...Thanks

I am 6'1 and I was 230, and I have the XL and it was rather roomy for me. But I didnt get the Plus suit. They say to go up one size for the plus suit. I think the XXL would fit you perfectly.

When I purchased one for the first time I was 6'-2.5" inches and 280. I took a 3xl and it was none to big. My inseam is 32.

With the Plus suit, I personally would think about 1 size larger than what you would normally wear as the inside of the coat and bibs will grab at your clothes a bit when you put the stuff on and take it off as was mentioned above.

If it were me, I would go with the 3xl only for the plus suit and a 2xl for the other colors.

That 3xl would also give you enough room for say a hooded sweatshirt and maybe some sweat pants.

I wear an XL in AA Plus bibs and jacket. The Plus XL bibs are perfect for me, but I should have bought a XXL jacket because the sleeves in the XL aren't cut generously enough for me to get more than two light layers under it. Plenty of room for me in the trunk for several layers, just not in the sleeves.

We're very different sizes, you and I, but I second the notion to go up one size for the jacket.

If I had it to do over again I would have bought the Camo or Red/Black suit. The plus is tough to get on unless you're wearing some slippery nylon type fabric underneath it, and the standard AA is much easier to get on because it lacks the fleece lining. You can always add another layer under the standard AA suit if you want a bit more warmth. Gives you more control over body warmth that way.

Just some food for thought.

I'm 6'6" and about 295 and wear a 3XL and it works great so I would think the 2XL would be right on for you.

I have the AA plus. It is a good suit. If you are buying it for the flotation, it could save your life. I like my AA when fishing out of the boat in cold weather, or fishing on thin ice.

I think it depends on how you dress and what you are doing with any of them. I have an AA suit and was out in 9 degree weather Friday night with 30 MPH winds. The only part of me that got cold was my face and hands.

i have been wearing a columbia setup just got the AA suit and was out in the 0's yesterday never got cold the bibs are great. if you cant stay warm in the AA suit you should probably stay home

as far as Arctic Armor sizing-I bought an xl. It was a little snug so I took it back and got the xxl. The difference between xl and xxl was so slight if you're undecided go up to xxl.

I would go 3xl for sure. Im 6'6" and 280 pounds and wear a 4xl bibs and 3xl jacket. That is in the red/black suit so I would go 1 size bigger than usual. I had a pair of 3xl bibs and they were a bit short but ok with my boots on.

By the time you layer up inside that you should be fine. I think the bibs will be spot on and the jacket will be a bit loose bit ideal for layering when needed.
