Hi @learner03 

You can add a calculated column in your table :
SortOrder = IF(Table[Size]="S",1, IF(Table[Size]="M",2,.............................IF(Table[Size]="5 XL",10,Table[Size]+10))))))
And then you sort you column size by this new column

Check that your SortOrder column has for type "Whole number" :
