Hi everyone. My first time with a technical suit. I am 49 yo. 5'4" and about 126 lbs.small chested. Little tummy left over from pregnancies, but in pretty good shape. I got a 25L and a 25 to try. The 25 L is tight everywhere except in the chest, and I have heard they can catch water in the chest. The 25 is tight EVERYWHERE , and kind of painful in the shoulders, and pretty darn tight in the thighs. will it loosen up in the water in the length? right now it is uncomfortable, but I do not have any experience what happens when they get wet, or used a few times.
Thank you so much in advance for any feedback.

On a somewhat related note, I have heard that you should buy the FS Pro 4 sizes down (e.g., if you normally wear a 30, you should buy a 26). Is this true, and would the same hold true for other pseudo-tech suits like the Tyr Tracer?
Edit to add: Also, how do you know whether you should order "long" or regular? (I am 5.4" and wouldn't think I would need long, but the original poster is my same height and ordered a long.)
