Sizing guide for boilersuits

Due to the nature of the boilersuits, they have their own sizing chart. All boilersuits come in a regular length (R), and we have limited stock available in tall (T).

You may wish to wear extra layers of clothing under your boilersuit during colder weather, therefore you should allow for this when ordering. If in doubt, we advise to order a bigger size.
