@LewisStonehouse:

Dear god

Just how I feel about it, too 

Sounds good, @Giles. I've wanted the 814 for a while so I'll be getting those first and then looking to see which overalls I need next lol.

@endo ugly duckling? more like rise of the Phoenix!!!! Those 806 are a fantastic choice & you look great in them 

[Joberwocky]

@Giles is the Wabash sizing the same as the denim bibs?

[endo]

thank you all, folks - for your kind words, encouragement and being great bib role models

For all intents and purposes, yes….....Likely to be minor variations, but they'll be minor....

[Joberwocky]

As someone bitten by the bib bug, I'm a bit unclear about the sizing of these.  If I have a 34 in the XHS (the waist in that being 34.7) would I presumably get a 34 in these? Thanks, everyone looking killer in these

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I'd say 36.

[Joberwocky]

36? That would be a 41 waist in these, are.they intended to fit that relaxed?  I understand the sizing doesn't take into account the thickness of the fabric, so the 39 waist of the 34 on paper already seems pretty large.

[sabergirl]

I feel like the rises (especially the shorter back rise) make the waist fall in a different place than on pants. Oversized would be the way I would go!

I think @LewisStonehouse was in the exact same boat as you. I suggested a 36 and they worked out. Looser and comfy is the point of these, not form fitting. I suggested he bend and the waist and attempt to touch his toes, if he had to exhale to do this or must groan when he stands up out of a chair a 36 would be better. If you're one of those muscly athletic types probably and 34 would be better.

[Joberwocky]

Ha, by no means a muscly athletic type, but for sure on the shorter side.  5'6" if it matters

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I don't know how much the bib rise or straps vary from size to size. I would send the Stubborn Crew an email or use the live chat and get them to see. I still think bigger is better for these and I wish the bib was longer on these. I wish they had a size 40.

[LewisStonehouse]

@Joberwocky I'm a 34 in the 634 and 888 cuts and wear a 36 in the bib. It's a very relaxed fit in the bib. That being said, I could probably get away with the 34 if I wanted the bib more fitted, but I much prefer the relaxed fit in this.
