Hi. I am a parent of 9 y.o. boy, with great swimming potential. :)
For the past 3 years I've been buying jammers just based on the fit (and kept buying a size larger every year). Now, I've decided to actually check recommended sizing.
He is very tall - 4'10". His waist is about 26 and every site states that for this waist size should be 26. I am so confused as my son is wearing size 30 and I am thinking to already buy size 32 (next season).
I am looking for recommendation from coaches and professional swimmers! Maybe I am wrong with sizing and that potentially can be not so good for his timing. I am also planning to buy an expensive suit for his swim meets (Blueseventy NERO TX Men's Jammer) and I don't want to make a mistake in sizing.
Please share your opinion! Thanks!!

Those suits stretch a lot. he should probably wear a 24 or 26 racing suit.
I did get size 26! And it takes me 15 minutes to put it on him :)
He is complaining a bit, but when it's on, he feels pretty good!
I am happy to say that he greatly improved all of his times. With each meet (every 2 weeks), he does better and better. Most of his times are BB, very close to A, so he is now trying to reach Gold time! Keeping my fingers crossed. :)
