What changes by model

Cuesta M's / Vista Adj

Cuesta M's is represented by five semi-adjustable rules. Vista Adj uses four adjustable size bands in the reviewed US chart.

Cuesta M's and Vista Adj share some waist bands, but Vista Adj lists wider thigh ranges for the corresponding S through XL rows. Select the model first, then check both measurements against that model's row; a waist match alone does not establish fit.
