    How old & how tall? Mark is 5'11 and a mens small is the best we can do. If you ask me, he's too skinny.

    A men's small is closer to a boys 16-18. a boys 14 is roughly a ladies 1. which is a ladies extra small.

    kimmee's got it. Ds is right between the 16-18 and men's small. The men's pants are way too long though. The shirts fit nice. He's on the chunky side though.

    Don't forget the loose fit and carpenter cuts are larger. They still make slim sizes for that age.

    Dee, what are you making him? I see Kwik Sew has patterns in a boys XL (12-14), which is for boys 5' tall.

    KS 2894 is a tshirt pattern, and they have others too in the boys category.

    2951 is a button up shirt

    If you need any KS patterns, lmk, and I can get them from the Kwik Sew co-op and have them sent here for when you come up
