White Coat Size

[NBgeegee17]

Hey guys!

 

I was wondering if anyone who is in med in Ottawa can tell me if they chose the same white coat size as what they wear everyday. I'm looking at the size chart and feel like they are made a bit bigger, but I don't want to end up with something that doesn't fit me at the ceremony! 

 

Thanks!

They are HUGE. I believe they send you a chart with measurements, so take the time to measure yourself and then choose the best option

Ok!

Yeah, I was comparing myself to the measurements and felt like it was abnormal for me to be XXS!

 

Thanks!

Im finding it hard to determine my size! If i wear a large normally (female) in my clothes, would I be a medium on average for the white coat?

 

thanks

I am usually a medium (for mens), but had to get an XS according to the measurements.

I'm usually a small, but I ordered XS, so I could get it altered after if it's to big. I didn't want to regret choosing XXS if it was too small.

Thanks for the info! 

I ended up ordering a medium, I guess if it's too big I will get it tailored!

Im thinking of going with XXXL in order to stand out in the pictures, what do you guys think

I realized that the medium i ordered will probably be wayyyy toooo big. oops.

Maybe you can send them an email?

I bet you could wear the coat rather comfortably while you still have a backpack on.

 

I read that in past years you were able to exchange coats after the ceremony if the size didn't fit. Not sure about this year though.
