    I know there have been some threads before, and I believe I have even asked this before, but could not find the thread anymore. Finally ready to pull the trigger on a Snosuit jacket but am torn between a XL and a XXL. Is there any length difference, not sleeves, but actual length for kneeling? I go about 6’1″ 270. By the measurements on the chart, I am in between a XL and XXL. From your experience, are they pretty close, or are they generous? I would like to try them on, but cannot find them locally. Thanks for the input.

    I wear the XL very comfortably. I come in around 6’1″ and 245 on a good day.

    Dean down at Everts carries Snosuit and I believe he has an XL around for sizing. Give him a call. He’s only 15 miles south of you as the crow flies.

    I am 6’4″ around 240+ lbs and the XL fits me just fine with some room to grow

    WOW! IDO has enough big dudes for a complete set of 1st and 2nd string linebackers. Remind me to not lip off so much.

    The snosuit jackets are made with articulated arms which most times will mean a size smaller than you normally wear will fit good

    Thanks for all of the advice!

    James, do you know if Dean has the new model or pre-Frabil model? From the looks of it, the new style does not have the reflective piping. Are there any other differences between the pre and post Frabill snosuits?

    I purchased mine at crosslakesales dot com 261 shipped.
    Last years model. It was the cover all not the 2 piece.

    I fish with a big guy he has the 2 piece XXL, he is
    6’4″ – 325. I think the XL would do just fine for your description. Their NICE.

    Are the XXL jackets any longer than the XL’s? My father found a XL blue (last years model) for me, but it seems a little short. I am going to try to track down a XXL to see if it fits any better and probably sell the XL.

    Like everyone else said…

    I have an XL snosuit. I’m 6’4″ 230 and it fits great with room to spare. Those suits are amazing, your going to love it.

    Here’s the sizing chart to help you find the right fit.

    Well that’s a new chart! Is that one reserved for IDO eyes only? I could only find the ones on the Frabill site now.
