Question
How does the L and XL sizes compare for the V4 7600 chest and how does this unit compare to the 8800?
I currently own a large epic 8800 and it seems that its starting to get small. I'm 6'-1" and about 160lbs.

The 7600 Size Lg. fits an arm span of 70-72 inches and height of 5'10" - 6", and the Size XL fits an arm span of 73-77" and a height of 6'1" - 6'5". At your size, you might fit better in an XL.
The 7600 and the 8800 fit the same, and the sizing charts for each are the same as well. The differences will be in the size of the shoulder floaters, the design of the arm floaters and belly pad, and a few other differences.

Major differences between the two include:
- Shoulder Floaters: 8800 are a bit wider and there are two additional foam pads underneath. 7600 floaters are a bit more narrow and tapered towards the belly but they have an addtional, removable foam pad underneath for extra protection.
- Upper Rib Flap - the 7600's have an additional rib flap attached to the side of the chest pad near the arm pad area.
-Belly - same foam used in both, but the 7600 has a semicircular hinge design at the belly to help keep the padding in place when bending at the waist. The 8800 has a different design for this pad, but it does the same thing.
- Arm floaters - 8800 arm floater is angled on the bicep area, and the 7600 arm floater is cut straight across. The angled cut offers a bit more protection towards the bicep area, towards the outside of your arm.
- Material - arm material in 7600 is nylon, 8800 is "aerospacer mesh" for added mobility.
Regarding your Sizin question, the arms and the belly padding on the XL will be about 2" longer than on the size Lg.
I just checked inventory, and it looks like we only have an 8800 in a size Small as of this message (1/31/12). The 9500 is nearly identical to the 8800, however, so that is an option.
