I wear a large to x-large normally (t-shirt)...so I assume I should get an extra-large to layer?

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

The Simms top fits snug around the middle and has more room around the shoulders. I'm between an XL and XXL and the XXL Simms top is a perfect fit.

17-35 dress shirt if that helps.

Spence is right. I'm a 17 1/2" neck size, 36" sleeves, 6'3", and the Simms XXL is the perfect size. The Simms care tag on the inside says just wash machine cold with no dryer (just line dry).

If its anywhere near as good as there waders, I am going to buy one! Its either that or the evo11, I really wish they had a zipper on the neck, because I love to wear my sweatshirts under them, But I like the simms products they really are made well!

I was comfortable in it.

No Endurance jackets though.Would've very much liked to have tried it on also.

I can honestly say that out of all fishing tackle or gear manufacturers that I came across over the years ,and believe me there were many,Kadir has been one of the most responsive owners in dealing with its costumers.The man bends over backwards to help those who purchase any Aquaskinz product.I own (bough and paid for ,thank you very much) all the jackets they made and so do most of my friends.The only problem I had was when water started leaking thru the gaskets but that was because I lost forty pounds in weight.
Did some guys had problem with their tops ?Yes but the question is has manufacturer dealt with the problem.To my knowledge .yes.That's all any customer can ask.
