    I'm tall but apparently my arms aren't very long. FTL is a bit above mid-thigh on me.

    FTL is about 2-3 inches below classic for me, and well above where I would call mid thigh.

    Fingertip length is smack-dab in the middle of my thigh for me. I'm 5"1 1/2'.

    Seeing this thread was useful because every time I've seen fingertip and mid-thigh referred to as different lengths I've been very confused!

    It's the same for me. I feel like my arms are pretty typical in length, but my torso is a bit short and my legs a bit long.

    I have quite short arms and, in particular, inconveniently small hands and short fingers, so FTL is only slightly longer than classic on me. MTL is way below that.

    Well lets see, I'm 5'
    classic: 41"
    FTL: 44"
    Mid Thigh: 45-46"
    Knee: 51" (top of knee)

    These are the best measurements I could get on my own. But these seem to be the average lengths each time. And when I factor in my head measurement they make sense.

    I somehow manage to measure differently every time! But as I do these things singlehandedly, I just have to go with it.

    So this interests me! Wingspan seems to be one inch smaller than my height, going by my last check up that way. My hand is around 7 inches long. My distance between classic and knee crease is around 13 inches. I voted for FTL coming after MTL, but thought there was only a CM or so in it, and a hand span between there and knee, so I guess that’s about right...

    I'm 5'3''. I have a long torso and my arms are normal, the hands normal in general but a bit on the big side for my height.
    To measure after classic is quite difficult. So, Classic is about 43 inches on me. FTL 2 inches after, and MTL about 2 inches more.
