I’m 5ft10 and 13 1/2 stone recently bought the xl version they were huge, so ended up swapping them for a Large which seem perfect. Can’t complain for the price, proof will be in pudding this winter……

Yes, went from the Fortis tundra to the Korda for exactly that reason, the tundra, although waterproof were very wide legged and short on me, the Korda in a large are much narrower and at least reach my ankles 🤣
Prefer them narrow as easier to get in chesties or wellies.

XL should be OK but size up to XXL if you want a jacket underneath rather than just a hoodie

I've had the korda salopettes for a year and they have been great. Not been cold whatsoever in them. As for having a p1ss as someone said you can zip up from the bottom end. As for a number 2 as with all salopettes you can pull them down and pull forward it's that simple. If people struggle with that they need adult potty training lol but seriously the korda salopettes are great IMO and get the sizing bigger than you think you need as I did return my first ones for a bigger size

The korda ones have a double zip so you can unzip from the bottom.

Had the max 4 ones years ago. Pain in the arse everything you wanted a pee you had to strip down to take them off.

I used mine last weekend. I am 16st 7lb and 5ft 10, they fit me perfect, if a tiny bit on the long side. They are pretty good, but the insulation is not that thick, below 4 degrees I would wear thermals with them. The cut is really nice, I like them.

They are not overly bulky and you can easily wear them in bed - sod taking them off, what's all that about!

I use the snugpak sallopettes, and it’s rare that i need anything other than shorts in them. If I get a take in the night, so long as I’ve got a jacket/fleece to hand it’s fine. I might pop the salopettes back on once it’s landed.

Short term, uou dont really need to keep your legs warm, after all, how often do you see a postie wearing trousers…..
