    5'8 and 34" waist and I got medium, but I'm far too short for them.

    6ft and 34" - I reckon medium would be fine.

    I would go large mate
    I have a medium pair, i'm 5'10" with 32" waist, and they are just spot on for me. The straps feel like they are at their comfortable maximum stretch going over my shoulders.

    Maybe I have a long torso or something though?!

    5' 9", 34" waist here....medium is really comfy, go large

    Also 5'9" and 34" waist - I recommend large too. I think my pair from them have been an absolute bargain. Go large.

    !

    I am the same size as you and the mediums feel like they are at full stretch at my height, I would go with a large if you are 6"

    remember, wiggle should let you exchange them if you bought the wrong size

    I got a pair in Medium a while back, I'm 5'11", 32"-33" waist. Before ordering I emailed Wiggle customer service, and they were pretty helpful in recommending the correct size - might be worth a go if you're unsure. As Hayd'n says, they'll exchange if you get the wrong size.

    I'm just over 6ft. I have the XL which is slightly too 'tall' for me on the legs but not uncomfortable. I need the XL for the waist :(

    Snap. I am few inches over 6ft and the large were too small. The Xlarge are fine but just a smidgen long on the legs but that is easy to adjust.

    They turned up this morning and Large is a bang on fit . My main worry was being short on the leg but there fine .
    And i got a little bag of sweets as well..........thought wiggle had stopped doing that.
