Questions about this item:
Shopper I wonder whether any women can advise on the fit of the Ranger, or whether a woman-specific variety is better? I have a relatively curved back, and wonder whether a women-specific one is better, to hug the curves!
ROBERT S Even though I'm the wrong gender as a divemaster I'm around students constantly. Comfort is a large factor in the learning curve. Any equipment cut for the female form will help your diving,if you notice the shoulder straps are shorter and rotate out toward the hips. I would also recommend the lombar support if you have an arched lower back. I have two rangers one for the pool and class and one for personal diving they are the finest back inflation bcd's available hope you enjoy your new bcd Bob
THOMAS C The ranger women model is better built for the front upper torso being larger... the male model is more adjustable in the mid section mostly for the front lower torso. the back you'll find is realistically the same.
Shopper Greeting! After researching and researching, I've decided on the Zeagle Ranger, and I'm on the fence about which size to get. I'm 6' 0" and 270#. I have a 51" chest and a 42" waist. I'm thinking the XL is a slam dunk due to my weight, but what is your opinion?
JOHN R My ranger is a large and I'm 5-8 ...180 lbs and its a perfect fit, your proportions are set for a XL size.
John
SCOTT B I honestly don't really remember the sizing. I'd recommend calling leisure pro for a few reasons. First, they are generally very good at telling you what size to buy. Also, Leisure Pro functions on commission over the phone. If you call and ask for the best possible price, they'll generally take off as much as ~20%. I have saved hundreds in this way. Definitely give them a call.
Regarding the BCD itself, you won't regret it. It's incredibly well made and versatile.
Good luck!
JAMES M My ranger is XL and fits great! I am 6' 2" 265-285 my chest is 48-50 and waist is 40-42. I like to have enough room to move if I wanted it. Hope that helps. Jim
MICHAEL W Definitely. I have the large and I am 6'1" about 205 with a 44 chest. Love it!
THOMAS C I'm 225 and 5'7" bought the large it was suffocating returned it for the xl fits awesome plus leasure pro has the best customer service I've seen and prices are good too
JOHN L I think you should be fine, I am only 5'8 and 140 and I took the medium. It fits slightly large but I got the lumbar pad so it fits tighter now. You should be fine with an XL, if it is still slightly loose then just get the lumbar pad and it will snug the fit up.
MIGUEL B I'm 6'3 and 225. I was about 270 a year ago when I purchased it and it was a great fit then. I think that XL will be perfect for your frame. It's a great BC. Enjoy.
SEAN S I'm 5'8" 160lbs with a 33" waist. Should I go for a medium?
ROBERT S Zeagle size chart runs pretty true you need to measure your shoulder size also these are the best bcd on tbe market and they are made in America in Florida
MARK S I would suggest a Medium. Medium fit my frame. 5'11' 180lb 34 waist. Very easy to adjust up or down.
William H yes i bought a Large and i am 70" 255lbs
MARK T medium should be right.
Rangers are very adjustable!
ROBERT K Think that would be about right. I'm 6'1" and my wife's 5'11" -- we both got larges. Mine fits perfectly, and hers is just bordering on being too big - but still comfortable. Medium sounds just about right for you. It's a great BCD -- after 150 dives they still look like new.
RYAN J Yes def a medium the large would be to big for you
NELSON M Yes a medium should fit you fine
TOM G I am 6' tall and I weigh 225 lbs. I have a 46" chest and a 37" waist. The extra large size fit me very well. I do use a 7 mil wet suit as I dive in California. I should think medium would be a good size to buy given your measurements.
LANCE G I am 5'11" and 170 and it fits just fine.
Shopper Can put Scubapro air 2 on this BCD?
VLADIMIR J Any reg, octo or integrated, shld work on this BC. To be sure call LeisurePro. The only thing I can think of, if you will be using an existing reg, be sure that the air supply hose to inflator is long enough for Ranger's dimensions, so that it does not kink at the end of the metal sleeve of the end that attaches to the first stage. The pressure in the hose should not be affected by it, but seems like it could be a spot where unnecessary wear on the inflator hose could happen over time.
JOHN R Yes a scuba pro work with this Zeagle ranger
MARK W Yes, and it works great!
SCOTT B I do not believe so, but I am not entirely sure. The Zeagle inflator attaches differently than do most other BC inflators. The inflator attaches via the same connector as a garden hose, so that you can more easily rinse it out. As a result, most other inflators will not fit on the hose. If I recall properly, the proprietary Zeagle inflator/safety second uses the same size low pressure hose. If you call Leisurepro, they will be able to concretely tell you, (and in my experience, offer substantial discounts, perhaps enough for the Zeagle octo...) Sorry for my uncertainty..
Shopper can put scubapro air 2 on this BCD?
DANIEL B Sorry, I can't answer that, I use the Zeagle Octo-Z with it.
JANE H Yes, you can very easy to install air 2 in Ranger BCD.
ERIK V Yes. In fact that is what I use on mine. Works great.
JOHN L Yes you can put it on. I'm actually using the Air 2 on it myself. You lose the quick-attach hose fitting on it with the Air 2 though, but it's still worth it to streamline your gear.
Shopper mmmm i'm not so tall 5'8" and my weight is 193lbs.
It's ok if ill buy the large or the medium is better?
NELSON M Based on the size chart i would say buy a Large. Especially if you will be diving with a medium to thick we suit. The BC is pretty adjustable so will adjust down as needed.
EYAL L it is hard to recommend on something like that but i will tell you that i am 180cm height and 90kg weight so i have the large size. take into consideration that you also have the diving suit.
anyhow it is the best!! i had the Mares and it is much better
ROBERT K Would recommend the large - at 6'1" and 205 I've got the straps for length about mid-way out and the girth is pretty much right.
ROBERT S I would go with the large. You can adjust it down in the cumber bum and shoulders. That way it will fit better if you use a 7mil or dry suit. I dive s and r with mine and its been great. Only problem was where the inflater dump valve screwed into the shoulder to the bladder. Simple fix bad O ring. Its been a great investment a great rig for any kind of diving. Good luck
VLADIMIR J if you won't be diving in more than 5mil wetsuit, medium might be better. I'm 5'10" 195lbs and own a large. it fits fine when i'm in a 5mil or 7mil wetsuit, though the shoulder straps are as drawn as they can be. if i'm in 3mil or less it starts to get a little loose, but not so much that it interferes with buoyancy control. of course, you can always exchange it if M is too tight.
CRAIG M I am 5' 11" and 220 and use the extra large.
If I weighed 193lbs, I would be using a large. I can't see myself in a medium unless I got down to 180 or so.
LANCE G I would go with a large. I use a large and weigh 174.
ROBERT C I'm 5'6", weigh 155lbs and I have the medium which works well for me. I think you would be happier with the large.
RYAN J def a med im 5'10 and 220 and had to adjust my large all the way down and it barely fit.
MIKE D I would go with a large.
KURT S zegals are VERY adjustable the medium will adjust all the way to large.
Shopper I having a hard time deciding on a size. I'm 5'10 and 180-1855lbs. I'm a 34" waist and dive a 7-8mm wetsuit. I'm worried a large will be way to big and a medium might be just a tiny bit too small. Any suggestions?
EYAL L Hi,
since we use the meter size... i dont know how to calculate the measurements you mentioned. anyhow, i would recommend on a bigger size that can be fitted and will not feel to tight... which can cause a hyperventilation
during diving.
hope i helped...
P.S it is the best product.
LANCE G Since it sounds like you have a large upper torso, I would go with the large. I suspect a medium will be too small.
MARK W I am a similar size as you, go with the Med. The waist band and shoulder straps are very adjustable. One of the best, most comfortable BC's I have ever owned.
CRAIG M I can't answer your question, except to say that you may want to find one in a shop and try it on.
I am 5'11 and well over 200lbs and I wear the XL. and it fits great.
This is the best BCD I have ever used.
FRANK P I have a large and I'm 5 11 and 235 lbs and it's fit's fine. I think you should go with the medium?
Shopper I'm around 160lbs, 5'7'' height and chest 38", and what size should I get? M?
JAMES C I believe a medium would fit you just fine. There are some easy adjustment that can be made.
Jim
MOHAMED E Yes, definitely M (medium) because I am 200lbs, 6'3'' and I am using LG.
It is really really a great BCD and I am so happy that I mad such a choice.
You won't regret it, I promise..
ROBERT C I'm 5' 6" and weigh 155. The medium I have works fine for me.
GASPAR C Yes, a medium should fit well. I am 5'10", 155 weight and 42 chest and my medium size is perfect.
ROBERT T THE ZEAGLE RANGER IS ONE OF THE BEST BCDs AVAILABLE. Size will depend on what type of exposure protection you usually wear. Heavier wetsuit or dry suit will require a larger BCD. The cummerbund is adjustable on the Zeagle to help you get an exact fit. Judging from Zeagle's factory size chart a MEDIUM sounds about right. You should opt for a tighter fit rather than a loose fit. Leisure Pro is a great outfit and will let you swap if the size is wrong. If possible try to find a Zeagle Ranger you can try on.
ROBERT W I purchased the Zeagle Ranger BCD size med and it fits me well. I am male, 5' 6" tall, weigh 162lbs. and have a 42' chest, 32" waist. You may want to try one on for size prior to ordering to be sure, but I would think the med will work for you.
MATTHEW G The Zeagle BCDs tend to run very big. I am 6' - 205# with a 46" chest, and a medium Ranger fits me perfectly. Might wanna make a trip to your local dive shop and try one on to ensure you get the proper size.
TANIA J I think a medium would fit you well.
LANCE G A medium will work fine
Shopper Does this BCD have any weight accessories/pockets?
LeisurePro S The ranger has a weight system called a 'ripcord' system, where the weight pockets are laced together and to the BCD with a cord. A tug on a pull tab, releases the lacing and the weight fall out. The ripcord system can hold up to 36 pounds and is included with the BCD (actual weights not included). There are also non-dumpable weight pockets that can hold up to 20 additional pounds.
Shopper Does the Apollo Bio Tank Lock come with Zeagle Ranger BCD?
LeisurePro S No, the Apollo tank lock would have to be purchased separately here.
Shopper I am 145 lbs, 5'7"and chest size 38". What size should I get ?
LeisurePro S I would recommend a medium.
Shopper What's the difference between the Zeagle ranger and the tech?
LeisurePro S The Tech has 65 pounds of lift versus the Ranger's 44 pounds of lift. It also replaces the cumberbund with dual spade connectors. Here is a whole forum discussing the two.
Shopper What is the weight of this BC?
LeisurePro S Shipping weight for a medium is 8 Lbs
Shopper Is this the LTD edition?

Whats in the box:BCD, LP Quick Disconnect Hose and Bx Inflator The Ranger was the first BC to combine high quality heavy duty construction, weight integration, and rear flotation. Its introduction created a new category of buoyancy systems, and it is without doubt the most imitated BC in history! But it's the Rangers incredible versatility that keeps knowledgeable divers recommending it year after year. Zeagle's modular construction allows the Ranger to transition between tropical travel diving, rugged cold water diving in wet or dry suits, single or twin cylinders, and even (with optional bladder assemblies having up to 2 X 85-LB lift and easily mounted back-plates) technical diving! Constructed of heavily reinforced 1050 denier ballistic nylon, the Ranger is comfortable, balanced, and can be used in an incredible range of diving activities. It is compatible with a variety of additional bladders, pockets, and other accessories. The waist closure is a single buckle combined with elastic waist panels. The standard bladder has a 44lb lift capacity. If you are a diver who wants a rugged recreational buoyancy system, but also want one that can adapt and change to meet different diving needs, the Ranger is a system you won't outgrow.
