Help me pick the right size Striker Ice suit
« on: Dec 29, 2017, 05:48 PM »
Hey guys
I need a little help picking a size that fits me. Probably the Predator bibs and jacket.
I’m 6’3” and 225lbs.
Any help before I order would be greatly appreciated.

Mike

Are you wearing a suit now and what size is it ....I'm 5'10" 200lbs ...large bibs and parka ...I am leaning that you'll be an XL in both bibs/parka.

For comparison, I wear 3x tall in carhartt. I'm 5x striker coat and 4x striker bibs.

At an absolute minimum you want 2x if not 3x.

I'm 6'1'' 270 and wear a 3XL coat and 3XL bibs, I could've gotten away with the 2XL bibs but I went with the 3XL in case my wife's cookin decides to stick around my middle.

I would find a Scheels and try one on, then you can also return if any issues.

PTO Jim has them in stock typically...Fort Wayne...then you know for sure. I ordered my first pair, totally wrong size bib, went to PTO's tried them on, bought them, returned the others.

 I have the striker ice bibs and jacket.   I’m 6’1” 230lb.   When I bought them two years ago I weighed about 250lb.  The bibs are XL and the jacket is a XXL.  I went a little larger on the jacket in case I wanted to layer, trust me you don’t need to layers maybe a hoodie.  They fit great and plenty of room in case I get fat again..

Ok guys,
So I got a smokin hot deal on tan/camo Striker Climate bibs and coat.
I placed the order on 12/29/17 and was told 3-5 day shipping, but it was being shipped directly from Striker.

It’s 1/19/18 and no suit or answers from the retailer. I messaged Striker last week with all my info and nothing from them either.
I’d be ok with just an email or phone call, but nothing.
The funds were withdrawn on 1/2/17 for these items!!
Sorry for the rant but it’s very aggravating.

I would think XL in both.  I was 5'11 and 230 lbs when I bought my set and bibs were a bit too tall and jacket fit fine.  I would think the bibs for you would fit fine being a few inches taller.  Now the jacket is a bit tighter after 20 more lbs :-\

Ok guys,
I’ve learned my lesson!! I received an email today stating my order has been cancelled and I’ll have a refund in 1-2 days.
I was hesitant to name the company because things happen beyond our control at times.
 But After several phone call and being lead to believe 3-5 days and then 2 weeks to completely cancelled.
“Overtons” will never get a dime from me in the future.

Buy local if you can.  If not Red Rock out of Canada usually has some really good late season sales, close to half price.
