I saw the womans thread and found it interesting so I thought I would ask about dude sizes. I'm 5'9" and dress shirts I am a 17 fitted and T-Shirts I'm inbetween a xxl and an xl. The xxl's seem to roomy but I don't like the way an xl hangs on me. For pants I'm a 34x32.

Shirt sizes seem wonky to me lately in the early 2000's I was about 300lbs and a XXL and sometimes a XXL seemed to fit me fine, now I'm 176 and still fitting into xxl's...

    5'11" 225 and XL shirts are baggy on me most of the time. Pants are a 38 or 36 waist depending on the cut. At 176, XXL shirts are just way too big unless you have shrunk them (my laundry skills can do that!) or you just like them baggy.

    I was pushing XXL at 210 lbs. At 176 I would tend to take a large. Where I am now, about 160, mediums (media?) fit nice and snug, and if I'm lucky maybe even make me look a little muscular.

    Trendweight says I'm 176.4, my scale says 170.6. I'm also 5'9". My tape measure has me at 32.5" around my navel. I recently picked up size medium shirts and pants at Macy's

    I was about 176 in 2010 (before i gained back some weight) - at the time I had just started switching from size 36 to size 34 pants. Now at 220-ish i seem to be getting back "down" to a size 38 from a size 40 earlier this year. In shirts, Just recently switched back to XL from XXL however when i was 176 I could fit into L shirts they didn't fit "great" (some too short, some tight around the neck)....

    I haven't been 176 since probably middle school. At 215, I wear a 34" waist and 40" inseam. I usually buy XXL t-shirts for the length.

    I'm at 186 right now and 5'10". I'm able to wear a medium top now and I'm wearing 34 waist jeans. I can get into a 32 waist pair of jeans, but they are just too snug now. By the time I get down to 170 (my UGW), I should be wearing 32 waist jeans.

    173lbs, 5'7", 33x30, Large t-shirt and button down.
    I'm hardly an athletic or muscular body type - just sorta "average."
    I can still grab about 1-1 1/2" roll of fat at my waist.

    Not a man, but my husband at 6' and about 176lbs wears medium t-shirts (large from old navy) and a 32-33" (depending on brand/style) waist in pants.

    His dress shirts are another story... 17.5" neck, 34/35 sleeve and athletic/fitted/slim style, which all still fit him super loose due to the neck measurement.

    5'5" 174. Shirt size medium, 16" neck, pants 34". Started out at 225, XL Shirt, 18" neck, 40" pants.

    It's funny, when I was growing up, as a short guy, I thought I was "built" when i was able to wear an XL shirt but weighing less than 150 lbs. My target is to get under 150, and I will be wearing a small or smaller. I guess in the 90s baggy was kind of the style.
