I am looking at a Klim Jacket and bibs and would like to know how they fit compared to FXR etx - do they fit about the same or is the sizing different. Any opinions would be appreciated.
All i can tell you is that KLIM sizes things on the small side. I bought jacket and pants in a large when I am normally a medium size. Even the boots I bought oversize. I am normally a size 9 but had to get it in size 11. If you can't try it on before wearing then just go atleast one size bigger then what you are used to. Very good quality gear though! I would highly recommend them!
If you buy through a klim authorized dealer, they will exchange all appearel except closeout items. They will even alter bibs and jakets for custom fit. Maxdlx
I have the Klim mask and it rocks.
I've heard the newer stuff is pretty accurate according to their sizing chart. I know the jackets a couple years ago ran way small. I am typically between a med and large with jackets and this year's Klimate jacket in a medium was perfect for me. I ended up going with the HMK Stealth jacket in a large.

DO you wear a mx helmet and goggles? I've considered their mask since it has the Windbloc fabric, but thought the face opening was too large for goggles.
Thanks for the info - I will have to find out if the place I buy it form will take it back - I will have to mail order as we do not have a dealer close by.
Where is a good place to buy from? They would have to ship to Canada or be from Canada.
