My husband is 5'9 and 155#. He normally gets a size large Elite std short. Not familiar with bibs. Most responses seem to point toward a medium.

The most important fit is in the shorts. If he is a large usually then I would suggest a large in the bibs also.

I would say a medium. A large would be a tiny bit baggy. Check how he fits in the large standards he has just to make sure.

I'm 6-1 and 175 lb and the large fits well. Based on his hgt I'd suspect the medium would fit better.

I don't lnow what to suggest, but I ordered a medium for my husband and he is 6' and about 175lbs. They are a snug perfect fit he says.

I wear women's 2x and am 5'5 and purchased xxl short stout. And have room to layer. These waders are awesome. You won't be dissapointed.

I'm 5'8", 190 Muscular and the XL fit me. However, I believe the legs may be a bit short on your husband.

I'm 5'9" 155lbs. I tried on both sizes in the store and ended up preferring the small/medium so I would definitely recommend the S/M at your stats.

A 56 is big on me & I wear a XXXL T shirt. However, I wear layered clothing underneath because I ride motorcycles. If he's only wearing a T shirt underneath then a 52 should be good.

I'm 5"9-10" and 135lbs, the medium large was pretty big on me, and pretty long on my too. He should do great in the medium large, so he won't be tripping over it every step like I was. By the way, there is two slits by his pants pockets, they are supposed to be there for pocket access. This suit is extremely warm also. Hope this helps!

I am 5'9" 200 lbs and xl fits well. Large would be a safe bet.med might be too small.

I'd say you were borderline. I am 5'8" 215# with a bit of a pot belly - the XXL is snug at my waist but still comfortable because the material on the back side is stretchy. The XXL is maybe an inch or two too long but that's OK on a bike. If you go with the XXXL you should be fine in the length and probably the waist also. The sizing sucks but other than that they are a fantastic piece of cycling clothing. A real value.

I'm going to buck the trend and say go medium. I ordered large and they are too loose and ride up too high. Medium fits me just right (6'1", 185).

I would think Large would be the way to go - that is what I have and they are plenty long. My quads are pretty big for my height and they are a little snug that way but very comfortable. I normally wear a L or XL bib and my other knee warmers were L so it's all about the same

Well as a reference, I ordered a medium for my boyfriend and it's big on him. He's 5'10 and 160 lbs. The medium would definitely be at least too long on you

I am not certain of the measurements of these bibs. However, the person that I purchased them is a Big/Tall male. These bibs work out very well.

Hello, yeah Definitely a medium since your taller, I'm 5'5 125Ibs 29waist and I got a small and it fit good but i was a little tight I probably should have gotten a medium myself but I made the small work.

I'm 5'7 and I got a medium and it fit really well. so i'm sure a medium would fit both you guys just fine.btw, nice work on being 5'4 and scoring a 5'9 wife... high five to you!!

I'm 5'9 150 lbs and I got a small. I have enough room to move around comfortably. It really depends on how he wants it to fit. If he wants a bigger fit, go with the medium. If he wants something a little more fitting, go with the small. You can't go wrong with either.
