I have never wore that brand. With that said, I had a horrible experience with ice amor (head customer service guy actually was yelling through the phone at me over an issue with my coat,,note: bibs were fine) I currently wear Striker Ice (float suit), love it extremely. One of the best suits out there in my opinion. I highly recommend as they have several options depending on weather you fish. I am sure some folks have great experiences with all of them. Just my two cents.

Do you have the Striker Lite or the heavier model? I just bought the Lite. Also got the heavier one for my son for Christmas.

The sizes run a bit big. For the bibs XL (or maybe L if you dont want a hoodie under bibs) should be good for you.
I am 6’2″ 250# and am in a 2XL bib I can easily wear a t, long sleeve t and hoodie under my bibs.
The bibs are ok, I wish the sides of the bib came higher up under my arm pits…
I posted the same question some days ago and got several positive comments…sizes run a tad big and I have found a lot of dealers out of stock right now.

I have the light and find it to be great for any of the times I have been out. Very comfortable. I also like the ventilation for warmer sunny days.
Prime….Best thing would be if you can find someone carrying them to just try them on for size, even if you order them elsewhere. They do tend to run a tad big. You won’t be disappointed with them. I have had mine for over 3 seasons now and haven’t had a problem. As mentioned, the hardest part might be finding them.
Good luck
