Hello guys!
I want to buy my first suit...It should be cressi apnea I read its good and comfy suit for freediving (correct me if I am wrong)
I want to order it online cause I found it for unbelievable price.But I am confused from cressi sizing.Standard I am wearing L but cressi size chart says its XL or even XXL! Maybe you can help me ? Im 182cm height, 84-85 kg, chest 108cm, waist 88cm, HIP 95cm..Really appreciate any advice!
Thank you and have a nice day!
 
You are very lucky, looking at the Cressi chart and having a Cressi wetsuit myself I am confident in saying that your measurements, height and weight ideally fit into a cressi size (y) The charts are accurate and an XL will fit you perfectly, Cressi suits and most off the peg suits start misfitting if you are particularly tall and slim (the suit will swim on you) or if you are particularly short and stout (you wont be able to breath)! I am well over 6 foot and fairly slim, my Cressi suit, although I love it, is ok for my thighs, chest and head but is too big around the abdomen, resulting in a bit of flushing and heat loss. Being perfectly well proportioned, you will not have this problem and your Cressi will fit you like a glove ;) be happy and dive safe (y)
 
Really love to hear that man:) I already ordered XL and cant wait for it :) about abdomen part-maybe its gonna be same in my case cause I like to gym and have gain/loss weight periods during the year so its gonna be sometime better and sometimes worse but think nothing terrible. Thanks a lot for your advice amd expirience :)
