Sizing Chart

 

This sizing chart is for all FIRST LITE products

General information and advice on finding the correct size:

  • Pants: most First Lite pants do have numeric sizes (e.g. waist size 32, 34, 36, etc.). First Lite does not offer "in-between" sizes (e.g. waist size 33, 35, etc.). If you are in between sizes, please go one size up. For example if you are a 33 waist size on your favorite pair of jeans, we recommend you go up to a 34 waist size on First Lite pants.
  • Merino Base Layers: please note that First Lite base layers are cut with a more relaxed fit and merino layers do have some stretch. So if you prefer a more snug fit and for example you're not sure whether you should order a size Medium or a size Large, we would say taking the smaller size will likely be the better fit.  
  • Outer Layers: please note that First Lite products are designed to fit over each other at the same size. For example: If you are wearing an insulation layer (like a Brooks Down Sweater) and want to wear an outer shell layer (like a Catalyst Soft Shell Jacket) over your insulation layer, you should order both items in the same size! 

If you are not sure about the your size, or what size you should order, feel free to contact us under support@gearfex.com  and give us some more information on your height and weight. We will do our best to guide you to your correct sizing.
