How does this shirt fit for a big guy? My husband doesn't like tight fitting shirts and wears a 2x. He is 5'8 and approx 280. Would love some feedback

I'd consider looking at the ColdGear shirts that are labeled as "Regular" or "Loose" fitting if he doesn't like tight shirts. The "fitted" like this shirt is, is form fitting and is close to your skin (not baggy at all). You can probably find these on Amazon too, but here is the link to UA's regular and loose fitting ColdGear shirts since it is easier to filter for just those:http://www.underarmour.com/shop/us/en/mens/apparel/tops/longsleeve/loose/regular-fit/coldgear#products

I'm 6' 260 ..2x fits just about right for me...but I would say it's more snug ...I'm not really happy with the "warmness" of the garment...I've had better warmth with a heavy cotton tee and a good flannel actually....

I got the 49ers shirt and XL is loose like it should be. I have washed it once and it shrunk just a tiny bit. I am 5'6" around 200+ lbs (winter weight lol) I normally wear L but chanced xl and its a good fit. Hope that helps.

Well It depends if you like the shirt to fit tight or loose. I like them to fit loosely & I ordered a 2x & it fit me tight like a glove.

Fits men up to 6'2 220lbs. Vail is too close to face. Its right up against skin don't buy.. Hope this helps

i'm 5'10, 185-190 lbs and wear this in a large. i would say it runs true to size but also it is longer than your average shirt (like hanes or FOTL). it's good if you wear it as an undershirt, as it won't untuck nearly as easily as those other brands. it's a higher quality shirt, too, imo. the only other shirt i like as much is the hanes beefy T but those are a little more expensive.

I'm about the same build, a little shorter, but roughly 240 and 36 waist...My recent purchase of KW products were all 2x and as far as shirts fit quite snug...Ultimately your decision, but I think the large may be a bit uncomfortable for you.

Hi Frank--I'm 5'11", 200 and I had to go with XL (after ordering and trying a L). The XL fits me well, but it isn't loose. I suspect that it will be too tight for you.

I am in between 1x + 2x . But TALL is a better fit. They have a size chart @ Amazon. I took a chance + they fit the best I have ever tried on. But saying that I think they have a liberal return policy. I can't advise you at those sizes. But the shirt I think will work out great for me. The sun block is a must....Sorry I couldn't be any help except for the size chart.

The shirt actually runs pretty long..I'm 6 ft 200lbs and it's a little longer than I like..I got the xl..the shirt itself fits great but runs a little long..otherwise I love the shirt

I don't think so. My BF is 5'11" 205 bodybuilder type and wears Large and XL shirts. This was a little tight on him. So probably way too small for you.

We have three in XL and one in the 5XL. We only use the tops not the pants. My son is 6'5", 260, broad shoulder athlete. I am busty but could probably wear the L, but I like the looseness (and its cheaper just to share the ones we have) Tight when working out is uncomfortable for me. We actually haven't opened the 5XL yet. My husband is a 3XLT, so to accommodate for liking it loose we ordered two sizes larger. They definitely make you sweat. Best to take off outdoors when you're done with your workout.I just noticed the reply below about the ripping/tearing. We've only had to replace ONE suit and I wash after every work out. I wash, use downy on the rinse cycle, and then hang to dry. We have three in XL and one in the 5XL. We only use the tops not the pants. My son is 6'5", 260, broad shoulder athlete.

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!!

Pick the largest available 2XL-I'm 6'4" and about 265- it fit me fine, but a little snug, especially through the crotch. I love my suit!

Nicoal, I am a 5' 9", 150 lb male and I have a Medium that fits quite well. I would say a Medium for your husband, but it depends on his full measurements. I hope that helps.

My husband is 6'2" and weighs 170, and we got the Large. I'd try the Large. It fits quite snugly. I think it'll be fine. If not, Amazon is very good at exchanging. Just rewrap and send back. Then reorder. They credit your account as soon as UPS scans the bar code. When we exchanged the shirt for the vest, the turnaround was very quick.

I recommend a medium, thats what my husband wears and he's your size. I'm about a 28-32 and a small does me just fine :)

Not necessarily a large at 185 pounds. I'm 185 and just over 6 1/2 feet tall and I bought an X-large - it's tight. My chest is just over 46 inches though. If you go to Intelliskin's site you can see how to measure for these shirts. If I bought a large I have a feeling I wouldn't be able to get it on.
