Hi gang,

I’m 6’1 and 280lbs . I’m looking to purchase a suit right off the site here. Can I get pointed in good direction on what size I should grab? I do have the dad bod beer belly to deal with. Other than that I generally wear 2Xl shirts and 38/40 w jeans.

Thanks for the advice.

So excited to finally get my suit.

You always go one size up from your shirt size. so a 3X should work and be comfortable

Got my 3Xl today. seems like its will work. lots of length in the legs and arms. I wish it was a bit longer in the torso kinda feels like its pulling my shoulders down. gonna need a second belt as well. Also lots of loose strings I’m gonna need to burn off.
