Suit Sizing

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?

Paul, you are more intimately familiar with my LZR sizing problems than you would ever want to be. Speedo said I should wear a small or LS LZR based on their website chart. And I'd say the medium I brought to Clovis was tight based on your and Chris Beach's efforts to zip the dang thing. Who knows man, fishing rods are the same way- they're rated to throw a screwdriver and they're better at throwing a volkswagen. But you know this already. Trying on in advance is a luxury.
