Reviewed by The Mom from Central PA on Thursday, May 16, 2013We ordered this shirt in XL for my son who needs a cover up when he participates in water sports. XL is usually slightly baggy on him, but even with assistance, he could not put this shirt on without looking like his entire body had been stuffed inside a TEDS stocking. The material has some stretch, but the seam thread does not, effectively acting as a tourniquet on his arms, belly, and neck. We wonder if the size was mislabeled on the shirt or if all of this brand tend to run small. If you order this shirt, definitely get it in one size larger. We realize rash guard shirts are supposed to be close fitting, but this was way beyond that standard and dangerously tight. We liked that it had an attached loop in the middle of the front hem to secure the shirt to his trunks, helping the shirt stay on and not ride up. The loop would also help divers and surfers from accidentally losing their trunks in the water. As always, Sierra Trading was great about making the exchange as hassle free as possible. We returned the shirt and replaced it with another Body Guard brand rash guard shirt in XL with short sleeves and it fits properly. My son loves the shirt.

Reviewed by anonymous from MA on Saturday, May 11, 2013My husband likes this a lot, but we concur with the rest of the reviews. The product is on the small side. I got him XL, and it fits him well although it's tight around neck to the point it's really hard to pull over the head. Otherwise it's nice and snug on him, just like it should be. For the illustration: he is 6' 7" tall, no body fat whatsoever, chest 42": tall and wiry. I sincerely don't know if it would fit anybody with larger chest volume or just a tiny bit more fat, and I bought it solely because of the previous reviews complaining that it's tight.

Reviewed by Endurance Athlete from Wisconsin on Wednesday, May 08, 2013The shirt runs small but it works great to wear when you are sunburn and don't want to wear sunscreen.

Reviewed by SteveSKI from New Jersey on Thursday, April 25, 2013The rash guard is well made but the sizing is way off. We plan to use it for snorkeling. I ordered a mens large and X-large for my wife. She is 5'9" 155 lbs, size 10. The men's XL fit her well. There was no hope of the that shirt fitting me (6'1", 225). The men's large size fits my 5'2" 100 lb size 4 daughter.

Reviewed by swimmer from Oregon on Wednesday, April 03, 2013The men's large fits me - I usually wear a women's size 6/small. The quality is decent, just realize this product is sized for children if you order.

Reviewed by Tahoe Moon from Nevada on Tuesday, April 02, 2013IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT ON, WAY TOO SMALL AND TOO TIGHT, IF YOU CAN FIND 2 OR 3 SIZES BIGGER GO FOR IT AS IT IS A VERY GOOD QUALITY ITEM, BUT THE SIZE WOULD ONLY FIT A VERY SMALL SKINNY CHILD.

Reviewed by willis from SLC, Utah on Monday, April 01, 2013We ordered this mens rash guard in size XL for our 5th grade son and we are happy with the fit. Our son generally wears a mens size S but has just started wearing some mens size M mainly for torso & sleeve length so we took the advice of ordering 2 sizes up... we are passing along that advice. Sadly,, it seems that across the hoard Body Glove products run extremely small, we need something for my husband who does wear a mens M but this Body Glove product in a mens XL does not fit him...

Reviewed by cavemanlawyer from massachusetts on Sunday, March 31, 2013I am 5' 9", 205 lbs. and XL was way too tight in the upper arms, shoulders and chest. Would not be comfortable to paddle. Otherwise I liked the look and feel of the product.
