    Hi all,

    So I am…….short and fat lol. Always having trouble finding a suit that fits well. I know the easy answer is to loose weight, but until that happens, what do the other “stocky” men wear out there??

    I have the striker climate bibs in XL. They are a little snug zipped up. The bibs are adjustable for length which I always have trouble with. So far they are good and not dragging when walking. I had to get a 2xl striker climate jacket. XL jacket is tight with the liner in.

    Predator and hardwater jackets XL both fit me fine. Climate was too tight. XXL in climate fit ok. Seemed to long and bulky in sleeves though.

    I did not try on bibs though.

    My carhart bibs I had altered and shorted. Cost was $10. Cheap for me and worked great to have them shortened. Now I’m not the guy wearing bibs with the saggy back end, stepping on my cuffs.

    Funny how the climate jacket was tight? Liner maybe?

    Try Duluth Trading. They sell some pretty good winter gear that should fit you. I have a pair of snow pants that are great….tons of pockets, super warm, gussets, etc. I don’t like bibs so I went with them and I’ll never go back to bins again.
