I’ve never purchased anything from 686 YET!  I am however about to pickup some gear from them, based on the fact they are quite true in the sizing department.  Anyone who is a bigger rider, whether it’s feet, waist, chest, what have you, knows finding name brand snowboard gear can be a nightmare.  It appears 686 is one place you can turn to to get stylish, quality gear.   The sizing info below details how 686 fits clothing.

I obviously can’t speak to the women’s line, but perhaps Shay can attest to sizing or what not.   As I said, I’m going to pickup a few pieces and check out sizing true-ups, and report back in a review.  The off-season is a great time to pickup gear pretty cheap.   Stay tuned, and keep 686 in mind when looking for clothes!
