I'm about to order some muay thai shorts from thailand but i've never had tha chance to try them on.
I am 6 ft tall, 210 pounds, my waist is 37.8 inches.
By looking at some charts on the Internet I thought I had to buy a size XXXL, but some friends said it is too big and just stick to an XL
Could you help me with this issue, please?
Thanks

PS Hope this hasn't been dealt with before but I didn't find anything on the subject
 
XL will be bootie shorts on you. XXXL is what you want.

Here is the common size conversion.

SMALL: CHILDREN
MEDIUM: 28"-30"
LARGE: 30"-32"
XL: 32"-34"
XXL: 34"-36"
XXXL: 36" - 42"

This is quite puzzling!
This would mean that I should get a 5L for TWINS, an XXL for Fairtex, couldn't get anything from King and about RAJA? I just can't figure it out, I'm 95 Kg, waist 37.8. What the hell should I get? Their chart seems pretty strange!
 
Yeah I know what you mean. You would think they would standise it, but maybe they think that's too easy! Anyway based on your sizing. You would need:

Fairtex: XXL (their sizing is pretty much spot on)
Twins: 4L (their sizing can be a little bit off)
King: 4L (made at the same factory as Twins, so their sizing is the same - Made to Order)
Raja: 4L (we go off the weight with Raja shorts)

All the shorts will be made to order. Fairtex you are looking at 6 weeks plus 10 days for delivery. Twins 3 days plus 10 days for delivery. King 2 weeks plus 10 working days for delivery. Raja 4 weeks plus 10 working days for delivery. Any questions just give me a shout.
