I am 5' 6" tall and 150 pounds with short arms. The reviews have left me confused as to what size to order. Any suggestions?

I tried the small but found them too tight. I'm 5'9" and 180. Medium works well for me.

The small is the smallest size they carry, so for sure you should get that size; they do stretch, and since your arms are not that long, as your height is 5'6", you will still even be able to cover the distance I can, which is from the top of a short sleeved T-shirt, all the way to the first knuckle of my hand closest to my wrist; you might be able to cover your entire upper arm, which is good in that it will prevent sun spots, which might not be noticeable now, but as people age you can see these brown splotches all over there arms, lots of pigmented areas, which these sleeves will serve to protect. Hope this helps...

I'm 5'2" at 115 pounds and wear a small. My friend is 5'6" at 185 pounds and wears a med. I have a med. size also, but the upper arm portion will not stay up, My friend likes the medium.

I dont want to say which size and give bad advise but I am 6' 1" and 185lbs and I use a large in this item.

I think you will be fine, bc I am 5'4" 150 pounds too but I had to keep pulling them under my short short sleeves in the summer, so I didn't look wierd. Buy two pair, I have already lost one pair.

I have these in a large and found that with time the way they loosened makes me think I should've bought a medium. I'm 5'8 and have arms on the thin side. Feel the small would probably be too restrictive. There may be circumference measurements somewhere for protec gear online.

I'm 6'2" with really long arms, so maybe that was my problem with it shrinking on me. You'll probably be fine with a 5.

Hi Sarah, I am also 5'2 very slim/ petite and I ordered a small it works fine there is no way you are a large that seems crazy. Like I said in an earlier post, it does hurt under your arm pits a little but as they say "no pain no gain" love this item it works really well. Hope this helps

my husband is 5'10is, weights around 170, sleeves fit him perfect! easy return with Amazon if it doesn't fit correctly! Good luck!

I am 5'8" but broad shoulders, if you are slim then a large should fit your slim frame. The sleeves seem long for me, but not a big deal.

Well, I am 6'3 and 220lbs. I got the extra large and it fits perfect. My friend is slightly shorter and 180 lbs and he uses my glove just fine. The medium might work just unless you need a slightly tighter glove. You can always return with the policy here if the med. doesn't work for you. Good luck.

I bought this in size M for my son who is 11, about 150lbs and 5'9"-5'10". He has extremely long but skinny arms. It fits great to length but kind of loose. I would suggest S if your arms are not very long. Hope this helps.

Our daughter is 5'6", and a size 4. The XL sleeves fit well, and worked great, for a recent race. She said they felt a little tight but became comfortable with wear. You might try the L-size first, to see if they are too tight.

The small should do fine. The sleeves are pretty forgiving. If you have thin arms the extra small might be slightly better. Good luck!

I'm about 6 ft and weigh 140, i chose a medium which is what i usually wear in shirts. if thats you then a medium will do fine i suppose. otherwise large is what i would pick if i were you.

True to size I would say. I have a Large Tall. I'm 6'2" and have long arms.

I'm 5'8 190 #'s I went with a medium. If you need it skin tight, try a small. The medium will have a little play.

You know...I think I guessed. I figure the large should be a man's size. I don't have tiny arms...I went with medium. I am an average size.

Well Steve, I am 5' 10" tall, with wide shoulders and I got a large. It fit very well, not tight. I would try an XX large if I was you.

I would say my arms are average sized for a woman at 5'4" and 140 lbs. there are 2 different adjustment sizes. Mine is always on the smallest and I pull it tight. Hope this helps

I'm 5' and weight about 130, so I would think maybe a 6. only because you want it to be a little roomy and not too tight. So if it's too small, that's it, because there's no stretch to it whatsoever. But if you are a more built person and more fit and lean, then you would do good with a 5. If it helps, In men's shirts for a comfy fit, I wear a medium. I hope that helped~ :)
