Suit Sizing

pwolf66
WTH is up with these manufacturers and thier sizing 'charts'? For example, I'm looking at Speedo's site and the FS-Pro. Thier sizing only lists smallsmall longmediummed longlargelarge longx/l But yet thier pull down list has XS, L, LL, XL, XLL, XXL. Hmm........ Soooooo, not sure where XLL and XXL fit as there are no sizing recommendations listed. The XL ones listed look like they are good on the thigh, very tight on the waist and slightly tight on the chest so not sure if I should pursue an XLL or an XXL. My current measurements: Height: 6'3" Weight: 248 Chest (measured at nipple line): 47" Waist (measured at belly button): 41.5" Hips: 43" Inseam- leg (measured groin to ground): 37.5" Inseam- arm (measured middle of back to wrist): 32" If anyone is even close to those measurements and swims in an FS-Pro, I would love to get a sizing recommendation from you. Or even sizing recommendations for any of the approved TYR or Rocket Science suits. Hey, Paul S. do you swim in a Pro and if so what size are you wearing?

    The suit sizes make no sense. With the tech suits, though, height is the main determinant I have found. So, if you are at the tall end of a suit's height range, or have a longer than average torso, order the tall. I am about 6' 3" but below the magical "deuce" in weight (for now). I wear a 28 in the B70 (it's tight in the length), I wear a Small in the Rocket Skin, and I wear a Medium Long in the Speedo range (FSII, Pro and LZR). If I were you, I'd order the XL and the XLL and send the wrong one back. Or call Kastaway Swimwear and have them help you with sizing.
