Sizing Klim riding pants

To anyone with Klim (Preferably Dakar) over the boot riding pants: How true are they to size? Do you have them in the same size as you have your Jeans or are they rather small or big?

Looking to order them online but I am unsure about the size. Also, I am tall. Are the legs long enough?

I think they run true to size. I have just sent a set of Dakars back because they seemed to short when i sat on the bike. The velcro would pop open around my riding boots. OK when i stood up. Ordered the tall, will have to see if it fits better. I am only 6ft but am all legs and had the 34s. Also need to think about what you will where under them. Talk to Brian at Atomic Moto.

Just bought 34s. They fit a tad tight but then again I probably should be wearing a 35 waist. (need to drink less and work out more). They have enough room in the knee to fit a brace. Overall I love them.

+1 Guys a genius when it comes to sizing people over the phone

*I think they have a no hassle exchange policy, not sure tho, never had to send stuff back!!

Ya their return policy is great, I had to return something and they took it back. However I live in Canada, there is no way to get the import duties back.

I usually wear 36 in Jeans and tried some Shift Squadron pants on. They were wide enough but legs were too short. Tried the 38 and the legs were good but pants were too wide at the waist. I have a thor in boot pant in 38, bit wide but with the strap all the way tight it's a good fit. I am 6.3'.

Too bad there is absolutely no dealer around here that has Klim gear in stock.

I wear size 32-30 jeans, and the 32 Dakar and Mojave fit great. I usually buy from Revzilla.com.

Not so. You can get duties and taxes returned by returning them - businesses often return items that they've paid tens of thousands of dollars on import fees to bring in, and they certainly don't let the government keep that.

Obviously, you have to let Customs know you're exporting them to claim a return. The other thing is to send the wrong size back with a photocopy of the entry document, and have the replacement pair sent with the photocopy and declared as a size exchange.
