Looking at getting a pair for the winter months, what does the sizing come up like? I'm a 34" waist but as they're compression do I need bigger or smaller?

34" waist means exactly that - unlike their S/M/L/XL rating which I have always found to be a touch smaller than required, so go up 1 size.
FWIW
While their outerwear is 'expensive but good value over time' (my GG suit has cost around £15/year and is still performing well), I don't think their base layer provides the same value - at least not compared to other product/companies!

The leggings are pretty cheap at £22 so thought I'd treat myself. The sizes are S/M/L etc

Agree with Foxholer....the legging are exact and are elasticated so should not be a problem....I had a pair of the full on lined trousers when I was in Scotland and to be honest felt they were a little too warm so have just (last week) bought a pair of the Paclite trousers...cant tell you how they perform as have not used them yet.
I always go one size up on the jackets as I find the sizes are very 'snug'.

Significantly better price than I have seen them, so my comment about value doesn't apply - in this case!
Having struggled to get into (upper body) base layers for 'my' size, I now go up 1 size. Haven't tried leggings (GG pants are very warm anyway and I have a pair of thermals for 'emergency use'), but would expect similar snugness, so I'd go 1 size up - or at least check with the retailer as to fit.
jeez it must get cold down there:rofl:
why not look at a cheaper alternative, get some nice thermal tights?:thup:

Swanny I've got GG leggings in XL and I'm 36" waist. Like you I bought them on offer. Really snug and on cold wet days I whack them on under my Waterproof troos and they are fab

I thought the whole reason for buying GG was so people could see the label, you gonna wear your leggings on the outside?

I'm a bit of a brand snob but genuinely only getting these because I know they'll be good quality and they're well priced, would never pay the full RRP.

Large should do the job for me then. Cheers.
