I have even seen people go 3 sizes down to get extreme tightness.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/173375?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 23 Feb 2012 15:50:32 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:dd4a7544-484a-4ca5-9a99-47664777ba39Former MemberI know a lot of people who have conservatively purchased speedo suits that are their normal race size and have been disappointed with the tightness. That&#39;s all I can say, but I don&#39;t want to steer you wrong. I haven&#39;t bought a tech suit in 3 years.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/173545?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 23 Feb 2012 14:24:44 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:d28c7123-65e1-4c9b-8ad7-9ae237b043c4Former MemberI feel like they might make them larger, knowing that people are going to buy sizes down for high levels of competition. Since the tech suits are *fragile* and they don&#39;t want everyone&#39;s ripping because they&#39;re too small, I suspect they make them a tad on the larger side.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/173298?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 21 Feb 2012 12:17:13 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:fda16db3-613b-424c-8b9f-b61b7d3262a1Former MemberNot exactly what you asked, but this suit is way cheaper and just as fast: <a href="http://www.swimoutlet.com/product_p/11284.htm?color=9325">www.swimoutlet.com/.../11284.htm</a><div style="clear:both;"></div>
