in my family (which is MASSIVE) my cousins and i actually have what we call the Christmas gift Oscars. given to the best fake "yes, I really do love it" male and female performances each year. unfortunately grandma has recently caught on to gift cards and is killing our fun...but at least no more 3XL fleeces for me. I weigh 175lbs. and that's exactly what I got the last 3 years. :)

I wiegh 160 lbs and I wear XL and going to be moving up to 2XL shirts. I just like loose shirts. I only got 2 T Shirts this year and both were XL I told my mom to buy 2XL and she got XL. Oh well she said we can go trade them in for the next size up.

are you 5'4"? Because no one weighing 160# and of average height should need a Double xl. You will look ridiculous. The girlies will not be impressed, though they will make fun of you, that's guantanteed.

Even I don't wear a 2xl. Stick to a size that fits, Fitted clothing is much sexier, and if you need a bit of xxl listen to Keith Anderson....

I'm about 5'11" to 6 foot tall.

After they are put in the washer like 10 times they get smaller. I like the sleeves below my elbows. All of the XL's I'm wearing right now are above my elbows.

When my school went to the playoffs for football they gave the whole team matching long sleeve shirts. I received a 2XL like every one on the team, the linemen got 3XL. Hell one of the coaches got a 4XL. But he's like 370 lbs.

After about 6 times of wearing and washing it...doesn't even fit anymore.

I just like long and big shirts.

gettin deep -- can't help it.. the BS meter hemorrhaged again...

5'11 - 160 lbs is probably
a 36 inch chest at best... which is a small
a 48 inch chest is an XL
a 52 inch chest is a 2XL
a 56 inch chest is a 3XL

unless you kids are being issued children sizes... then it would make sense
and pants would be immaterial because a 2XL would tuck in your shoes

Um...no

A 2X goes to about one-third down my thigh on me.

Plus the shirts the school gave us for our playoff gave ran small. Infact you could take the size it said and go down one. A 3XL was really a 2XL, a 2XL was really a XL.

The way I dress pales in comparision to how other kids in my school dress. Atleast I wear my pants right.

Saw this kid earlier in the year. He was about 5'5" 115-120 lbs. Had his pants that he took off for gym class laying down on the bleachers. I looked down and the label said size 40 waist.

Nothing too bad this year - the really bad gifts stopped the year my grandma started passing out cash.

I do have a couple annoying exchanges to make, though, as my in-laws insist on buying us full-screen DVDs. Ugh.

Sadly, I got no books this year, but I did get a Barnes & Noble gift certificate, which I happily just spent together with my cash at bn.com.
