Sizing
Just to confuse things, different suppliers have slightly different sizing - just the same as with most clothing these days. The tables below may help you work out which is the right size to buy from any particular brand or place. If you find that, say, Large from one shop is fine but the "same" size from another shop is a bit too tight - this might help explain things.
All these tables are broadly in the same format as the sizing table on the pack so please look carefully when comparing.
If you're on the border of a size, you may find the larger size more comfortable.
