I am 5'10" size 10.5 and 171lbs.
We are both fairly stocky, but not fat... He has always gotten the 5mm and I have always gotten the 3.5mm.
My dad is a bit shorter and less stocky. My dad gets 3.5mm.
As far as I know none of us have had a hard time finding waders that fit.
titz and I wear lacrosse waders, my dad has cabelas brand. (Correct me if I am wrong Titz)
The cabelas brand is sold in regular, stocky, xxl... I believe.

I should almost be wearing child's sized ones. Kids are BIG these days.
Am 5'7" and around 150.
The dilemma I have is:
If I get the correct foot-size the inseam is too long. If I get the size where the inseam is the right length, the boots are a size too small. In other words I have to buy my boots one size too small to get the waders to fit.
My feet are HUGE? Size 9.5
To get it right I have to order size 8 waders?
Next time I'll try youth size.
To get an idea of my size...My great uncles and uncles were all pilots but one or two were ball-turret-gunners in bombers. I can wear their old flight suits etc. Nothing keeps you warm like the wool clothes they issued to WW2 Army Air Corps crews.

Try 6'3", 230, with a size 16. It is a real pain in the ass for shoes, boots, waders and pretty much anything that has to do with feet.

I still think I and the big black guy could kick your ass.

It's all good, but seriously if you ever want to put big money on it, let me know.

That depends on what the definition of "it" is.

If we find ourselves near each other, I'll put some gloves on for free... Not that I want to hit you, I just love a good boxing match.
You do have one hell of a reach on me though, just as hint if you haven't figured it out already, that means I'm tuckin my chin and rushing in... going for your ribs right at the bottom under your armpit.
That ought to tighten you up and get rid of your advantage.

I'm just fucking with you.Charging in means you eating a knee, a plum clinch followed by knees and elbows or a take down shot and you tapping out.

I said boxing... If knees are flying I'm blighting and I have the jaw strength of a pitbull.![]()
No seriously, I just saw your pic in the other thread. You are like two of me!
In other words I've got this.

Brizilian Jiu-Jitsu: Black and Red (coral)

Taekwando, might be a waste in a a cage, but in a fight with 3+ it comes in more handy that Jiu Jitsu ever will.
I prepared myself for when the welfare army comes.

lifevests? i figure if i go in anywhere up here, help won't be there and with our temps, i'll be dead in 3 minutes anyway, so i don't even bother with lifevests.

There is a temp where they become more of a novelty.
And I have seen -50 once and I will never go hunting in that.
