1. ALWAYS FIT FOR HEIGHT FIRST.
Suits can always stretch out, but they will never get taller. When you look at the SYNC size chart it is most important to make sure you fit within the height range. Also keep in mind how far your boot comes up on your shin, so after you try on your new suit and it comes up midway through your ankle that’s OK and normal it’s meant to fit like that and not like a pair of jeans.
2. CHECK THE BUTT AREA.
One of the tell-tale signs for a proper fit is the buttocks region. You can immediately tell if a race suit is too big if there is loads of extra fabric surrounding your glutes.
3. IF YOU ARE IN BETWEEN SIZES, THINK ABOUT YOUR GROWTH TREND.
Ask yourself, are you still growing? If so, you may want to size up. If you are entering FIS and will most likely stop growing height wise and might only gain muscle mass, then you may want to stick with the smaller suit. Remember suits can stretch out, but don’t get taller.
