Anyone have a us wings in a tall?

Post by D »

I've tried doing a search, but I can't find were anyone said that they bought a usw in a long/tall. I wear a 40Long, so I was wondering if a tall from usw would fit the bill. I'm 6' 180lbs, but my frame is slender. All help is appreciated!

The way US Wings fit you may only need a regular. Given the sizes you state I think a US Wings Medium would do you well

sorry I'm late to the party!! I have a Large/Long. I'm 6'3, but most of that is in my legs, so if your 6' I'd say the Long would be the way to go.

Thanks for the replies. I absolutely hate having shirts/jackets too short in the sleeves. I think I'll try a long and if its not what I think it is I'll just exchange it.

Unless you are long in the torso, I think even at 6' the regular would be fine.
USWings makes these big, which is why I recommend a medium for your chest size.
You'll find out though when you get your long.

ME TOO!! I wear a 36-37 sleeve dress shirt, and the Long's sleeves are just right.

I have a US Wings Indy LE. Was going to order M Long but they didn't have it so they told me to order a L reg. Pretty much the same fit and they were right....fits me great. I'm a 6' as well...195lbs+

Thanks for the info. Does anyone know how long the sleeves are on a regular medium? Or a long for that matter?

the difference isn't as much as they say it is for the arm length.
Medium regular arm 25.75" (easily stretches to 26") measured from shoulder seam to sleeve end.

Medium long 26"

You think you have it tough? You should try going through life knowing that whenever you try on a jacket you are going to look like a little kid putting on his dad's shirt. :lol:
