Carhartt Men's Quilt Lined Duck Bib Overalls R02 - Durable Workwear for Construction, Farming & Outdoor Activities | Heavy Duty Insulated Coveralls for Cold Weather

I just received my overalls and its a bittersweet purchase. What was so frustrating for me initially was wading through so many helpless reviews informing "good product," "husband loves them" and on and on with no info on a sizing. What are the sole purposes of writing these things? I can see the star stats so the last thing I needed was to waste my time with worthless patronizations! I know I spent a good hour trying to make an informed purchase ... and missed the mark on a perfect fit.Anyways, I'm 5'11" and 175 lbs with a medium to slender build. My chest is 42", waist 32" and inseam 32" as well. I crossed my fingers and ordered the 36"x32". I'm sure glad I went up in the waist as these give me a good snug feel, but not too tight of a fit and I can still get my hands inside around them. But, I should have ordered the 30" inseam as these are a bit too long with the heel dragging the ground about 1" worth already having cinched up the suspenders to a comfortable crotch fit. I may end up returning for a 36"x30", though will read up on the shrinkage (if any) for washing recommendations. One let down are the super cheesy suspender clasps! (Reason for the 4-star rating) Someone tried to reinvent the wheel and failed miserably. These obviously will be the first area to fail as it looks and feels like some designer jeans add-on made of cheap alloy and somewhat difficult to adjust and secure. Other than that, these feel well insulated, very durable feeling and comfortable. My first impressions are that the materials should hold up for quite some time. Hope I didn't waste anyone's time reviewing my review.Update 10/20/14: I ended up returning these to reorder the 36x30 and ran into another let down. The primary issue you'll run into is the difficulty in sizing as numerous other reviewers have claimed. WARNING! If you need to return them, you'll pay for shipping and will not receive reimbursement until the company has received the item. And wouldn't you know it, the price has gone up an extra $10 in just a week's time so these were a pretty expensive pair of overalls for me! This will be the last time I try and order clothes from "this company," as their sizing charts were designed for another species!
