I'm trying to fix a girl up with some hunting clothes that I have never met.
What does a womans size 5 equal to in a mans size?

    Tell her to measure her waist, then her inseam.
    That equals a MAN'S size.

    EG 36x32 36 waist, 32 inseam.

    they make all size belts and suspenders, any size you have can be made to fit[;)] looks don't matter as much to deer as it does to dear.

    If you hope to entertain this lady outside of hunting,DO NOT ask her to messure her waist.Find a woman at a clothing storeand ask her instead of asking us hound dogs on GB

    Size 5 is small, Mrs K is a size 5 and this is often called a Jr. size if the woman is no taller than about 5-5 (my wife is 5-4) with a very slender figure, which my wife carefully maintains (which is why she is still my wife [}:)]). Unless the lady is rather tall or she is going to pile on a lot of heavy clothing under the jacket, a woman's medium is going to be too big. Start thinking size small.

    If she is a true size 5....It will drownn her....... Small is what she would wear.... think Size 5 womens is whata guy at 95 lbs. 5'-08" tall or a girl 5-5 5-6 120 lbs would wear....... medium mens is 150 to 180 lb. man would wear

    Men's clothes don't fit a woman. With pants, if the waist fits, the * is too tight. And if the * fits, the waist will drown them. In jackets, if the shoulders fit, the chest is too small. And if the chest fits, then the shoulders and sleeves will drown them. Now if the woman is built like a teenage boy, then by all means, get her some small men's clothes; otherwise, spring for some clothes that fit.

    What a size five adult woman would wear is proportionate to what a twelve year old boy would wear. Just for comparison's sake, mind you. Best, Joe

    If you dont know her size for sure then dont buy her clothes! most people look at me and think medium or smalls... I wear large in womens shirts/medium in mens... size 5 jeans is way to vauge. I wear 4s in one brand and 8-10s in another.. either ask her or just tell her you want to take her shopping.

    Somebody that small is likely to pile on layers....I would go for the padded jumpsuit type thing.....just because she could get it on and off over all the long johns and jeans she will probobly pile on. The jumpsuit things aren't in sizes....typically S, M, L and XL. Try a boys Large or XLarge. Get her some wool socks and nice gloves and the HAT. These things aren't "together" without the HAT!
