Ordered a size to big so whatever your actual size is, go down one (or two). Overall the construction seems really solid and the stretch panels in the knees, back, and crotch really help with movement. has all the proper zippers so make a suit and has pockets for hip armor (knee pds are built in). Comes with knee sliders so that saves some money. My complaints are the sizing (even my Teknic jacket is a weird size) and lack of a belt/suspenders/adjustments. The pants are held on by a zipper inthe front and a small piece of velcro, nothing else. I guess if you have them attached to the jacket they will not sag but otherwise they don't stay on you very well. Hopefully the exchange for a smaller size will help this out.
