the sizes don't match the

"the sizes don't match the military standards. the 40R inseam seems very large like the 40L. the size descriptions don't help. It certainly doesn't fit the way it's shown in the pictures. i would prefer reimbursement. it's such a shame that such a suit doesn't truly fit due to size problems."

— Hakki S. (2/5)

Not true to size

"Body size was significantly (up to 3x) larger than label."

— Sluggo (2/5)

The suit works as intended,

"The suit works as intended, but I wish there were more fitted options. At 6'5", it feels extremely wide on me. That said, it still gets the job done."

— Mathieu L. (5/5)

Fits me good my only

"Fits me good my only comment is about arms and legs, length is ok but they are a bit too large"

— Vincent L. (5/5)

Almost Perfect 5 Star

"Excellent quality. Sizing is exactly as expected. I want to give it a perfect 5 star rating but. . . my only complaint is there is only a single hook & loop patch on the left chest for a name patch. There are no shoulder patches or patch on the right chest."

Q&A

what size are the grommets on the knife pocket
Thank you for this question. The grommet on knife pocket meets Mil Spec MIL-DTL-10884 style 2. They measure 1/2" inside the hole in diameter which is typically a size 4 grommet.
What is the torso length for each chest size? I have a longer torso for my height so I would like to know how much larger in chest I need to go for it to not give me a weggie.
We offer multiple torso length options (Short, Regular, and Long), so you don’t necessarily need to go up in chest size to get the extra length you’re looking for. If you’d like a specific measurement or help with a size recommendation, you can email us at ecom@propper.com with your chest and torso measurements, and our team will be happy to assist further.
How do you wash the flightsuit?
You'll find the care instructions on the tag located at the collar of your flight suit. For washing, make sure all zippers and hook-and-loop fasteners are securely closed. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Be sure to avoid bleach, starch, fabric softeners, and dryer sheets.
Are they made in USA?
These are made in Haiti.
Which is the difference between R and S in lenth?
The regular (R) will have an additional 2" compared to the short (S).
