Due to some vermin a couple of years ago my spare suits were binned, so...

I have a line on some cheap ventilated ones but the question is what sizes to buy. $115 each.

I am thinking one large and one medium for guests.

Thoughts?
 
It all depends on the size of your guests. I bought all my suits online, and none fitted properly. The best solution I found was to take the veil off one suit after it had been ripped and replace with a veil/vest. Far quicker to slip the veil on after lighting the smoker and fewer zips etc to close and check. Also a lot easier to wash.
 
If that works for you.... not for me thanks I detest those overhead smocks.
