Normally just click XL when it comes to ordering cycling clothing, but after losing 2 stone since April I thought I would check my sizing before ordering some dhb bibs from piggle,

Was expecting to have dropped into Large but to my surprise It looks like I'm a fairly solid Medium 😯

5'10" Tall, 34" waist, 42" chest,

The only one that's a bit out of range is the chest (dhb show 39" chest for medium)

So question is do these bibs come up that big? Or shall I play safe and go for large? Sizing of large show 38" waist though and the rwason for buying new ones is my existing are a little loose round the middle 😉

I take large in DHB tights and I'm usually a medium in normal clothes (and 33in waist).

The legs are comically long still, but they scrunch up and the waist is right.

I'm 6 foot and skinny, and wear a medium. I doubt chest size makes too much difference tbh. Wiggle do the free returns thing on clothing so you could just buy 2 and send the ones that don't fit back by dropping them in to you local collectplus place, normally a newsagents or petrol station.

Medium a real stretch on me despite being exactly 39" chest 5'10. the waist is fine it is the bib bits that seem short. I have shorts and tights from DHB range and both are the same

I have some 3/4 fleecy ones and some of the 'wiggle' short ones. Both the same size but the 'wiggle' ones feel a size smaller.
very comfy and highly recommended though.
