Speedo sizing

Hi everyone, I was wondering if there is anyone who could help me. I swim 3-4 times a week and I have been looking at male swim briefs made by Speedo. I am having trouble with their sizing because thei size charts says to measure 1" above hips bones (or natural waist) but I find it strange because the elastic band of the brief sits below or on the hip bones. I guess my proble here is: my hip bones measure 34" but just above my hip bones I measure 32"!! If I buy a 32", is it not going to be a little tight for me when the briefs sit on my hip bones? In a swimwear store I was told to always buy a size above my usual pants size (which is 32"). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks a lot, JM

I thouhgt that Costco slosed all of their stores in the States? My problem isn't the hips but the thighs. I'm skinny but my upper thighs aren't. Most briefs really hurt. I've found that jammers don't so much. I was really glad when boxers came back.
