Here is what it says on the website. I tried it on and it seemed like it would be quite warm, but won't know just how warm till we get some ice.

Made of 100% nylon shell with polyurethane coating for extra water resistance to keep you perfectly dry. And polyfill insulation throughout keeps you comfortably warm. Durable, polyester lining ensures you can wear your Parka and Bibs for years to come. Machine wash / dry. Imported.

State Size, as available in the Shopping Cart below. Top-quality gear priced low!

If this is the same suit our buddy Paul has, they are worth the 80 or 100 bucks all day long. He walked around us for most of our gathering in his before we realized it wasn't Ice Armor. The coloring and material are very close. We were surprised when he mentioned the price last year. Just realize that it's "armor". My Clam suit isn't particularly thick either, especially the bibs. They're designed to tackle wind and weather first.
Here's Paul blending in with the rest of the Blue Clam Group. ;)

I am thinking of ordering this same Parka and Bibs set.

  But the sizing has me a little unsure as to what to get the Large or the X-Large

  I am 5'9" and 210 lbs  I see that (wolfpack) at 5'6" and 180 lbs thinks he should of maybe gotten the Large instead of the X-Large and (littlesturgeonguy) at 6'3" likes the fit of the X-Large. 

  Wolfpack how much to big is the X-Large.  I have more around the belly and just a bit taller than you. Any input would be nice.

   Thanks for any help guys.

I got mine a 2 days ago but couldn't open them until tonight. WOW are they nice!!!!! I'm 5'10" and 178# and ordered LARGE. The size I normally order when I buy stuff. The jacket seemed too big at first but I didn't have the bibs on. With both on they fit nice. Enough room to move without pinching. The elastic cuffs in from the outer jacket arm cuffs are great. No more wind up the sleeves. The red color makes them look like STRIKEMASTER suits. Nice 2 way zippers, wind flaps, pockets and adjustable hood. When the jacket zipper stops at the chin there is a cloth flap to keep the zipper from scratching your chin or throat. A very nice combo that they put some thought into. The only minor complaint I have is the crotch rides a little high. After adjusting the bib straps it went away. You won't be disappointed buying these. Join the club and get the cheapest price. Ask for the free shipping and you will still get $20 in coupons on any order. They also send you another $10 on orders over $100. Depending on how cold it is and the wind you may not need to layer up when wearing them. Time will tell. Can't wait to try them out!!!!!
