Curious About Sizing?

Given the massive variety of clothing we carry, a standard sizing guide is incredibly helpful for customers seeking the best fit.

Please understand that surplus varies widely in fit and cut and this sizing chart is general advice rather than tailor-level fitting.

Nearly every military has different sizing charts and schemes, which is why we've taken the time to put together this brief tutorial.

 

Jacket & Shirt Sizing

In absence of an established military size chart, we measure each jacket or shirt from armpit to armpit to get a rough idea of how it fits. If a garment is between sizes, we mark it one size down. For example, if a shirt measures 19.75" from pit to pit, it is marked as a small rather than medium.

To measure pit to pit, close up your shirt or jacket and measure from armpit to armpit. 

This is our measurement guide that we use to measure garments without an existing military size chart:

14"-15" PtP = XXS

16-17" PtP = Extra Small

18"-19" PtP = Small

20-21" PtP = Medium

22-23" PtP = Large

24-25" PtP = Extra Large

26-27" PtP = XXL

28-29" PtP = 3XL

Pant Sizing

We typically convert pants to US waist and inseam sizes. If a pair of pants is between sizes, we mark it one size down. For example, if a pair of pants measures as a 33 waist, it is marked as a 32 waist.

To take these measurements we lay a pair of pants flat on the ground. We then measure across the waist and double the measurement. For example, if a pair of pants measures 16" across the waist it will fit a US 32 waist.

To determine inseam we measure from the crotch seam to the bottom of the cuff. For example, it a pair of pants measures 30" from the crotch seam to the bottom of the cuff we will list it as a 30 inseam or 30L.

      If you're one of the few riders who wants to push your E Ride to the absolute limit – far beyond what the stock mountain bike-derived front end can handle, we introduce the Heavy Hitter 85MX Conversion Kit!

      This precision machined CNC 7075 aluminum bearing cup kit, allows a tight press fit to your frame's steer tube. This kit comes with new bearings, and cups, which will completely replace your OEM cups and bearings. You will only need to source your own KTM, Gas Gas, or Beta, complete 85cc front end, which will allow you to use the forks, triples, wheel, and brake. 

      We found the 85cc KTM platforms are sprung very accurately for the weight of the E-Bike, especially factoring in the added weight of an upgraded bike. If you’re at this point in your build, you have probably added about 20+ pounds to your bike already from a bigger battery and additional accessories, and the Big Sender kit is the icing on the cake.

      Fix all your problems. Not only does this kit let you tack on a far more robust set of forks, you can also dial in your settings in ways MTB forks cannot. You can now run your choice of KTM 85 MX forks and a wider variety of front wheels, and the short service intervals of the OEM front forks are eliminated. 

      Features

      • Take your e-bike to another level of capability with the Heavy Hitter Big Sender kit
      • Convert your e-bike to run real MX forks from a KTM 85
      • Eliminate weak failure points and short service intervals of OEM front-end
      • Gain the ability to dial in settings for your weight and riding style
      • Pre-pressed bearing races for simple install


      Technical Notes

      A complete KTM 85 MX front end is required. This usually ranges from $799 to $2,599. A complete front end consists of fork tubes, triple clamps, front braking system, front wheel (19" recommended), front axle, and MX style handlebars. Price is largely dependent on which fork style you choose: Dual cartridge spring forks are heavier but cheaper, whereas air forks found on 2018+ models are lighter but more expensive. From our experience, we would choose air forks every time.
