This topic came up in another thread, but I wanted to give it its own thread to get some input. In almost any thread that comes up about wetsuits, the response is always to get what 'fits.' But what does fit mean? In my own experience with wetsuit shopping, I am usually told by the LDS that I should wear a size small. The problem is that despite the LDS telling me it looks like it 'fits' great, I feel miserable with it on. Like I am going to be squeezed to death. Imminently. I typically buy a size up, and end up with a suit that may not 'fit' exactly right, but is 1000x more comfortable.
So I am curious if anyone else has this dilemma when buying a wetsuit, where 'fit' and comfort don't seem to meet exactly? When is 'fit' more important than comfort, and when is comfort more important than 'fit'?
