I've seen different opinions on whether these fit on the large or small side?
Looking to pick up a pair for late season, and just wanted to avoid possibly buying 2 sizes to return one.
I usually wear a 32 in all of my pants so was leaning to a 32 in the guide pants, just wanted to make sure i shouldnt bump up to a 34.
Thanks!

Pretty darn true to size. I also wear a 32 and have the Guide, Attack etc in 32. I have a 34 Guide I use late to put expedition weight LJ's under for stand hunting. It is a 34 for sure and I would not wear on an active hunt.

are you saying that because they are too warm or as a 34 they are that much 'baggier'.
Looking to compliment my prana's and EB guide pants with something that is a bit more weather repellent and warmer for hunting late season archery.
Thanks!

Measure your waist where you wear your pants with a soft tape measure and pull the tape as tight as you would like your pants to fit. Order the size pants that you read off the tape. The guide are sized very very slightly larger in the equivalent size attack to accommodate layering. If you wear a 32 in the prana and Eddie Bauer I would get a 32 guide but only expect to layer one mid weight base layer under them. If you would like to layer a puffy type pant under go up to 34.

Order your normal size. They're cut slightly larger so you can add a thicker base layer if you want. I personally like the Attacks better. The Guide has zip pockets so I can't put my pocket knife in them and use the clip. It annoys the heck out of me. I'll only wear my Guide's in really cold weather.

Get a 32, I got 34s last year when they ran their Black Friday sale because the smaller size was on back order and they are way to big!

Get the 32. Like others have said, they run true.

I'm a 34" and the 34s are perfect. The 210 base works very well too. Just saying. ;)

In my experience the guides fit true to size the attacks are slightly on the small side but ok and the alpines are about one size too big(had mine altered). All of them are awesome once you get the correct size.
