SWIMWEAR SIZE CHARTS
The swimwear size conversion charts on each product are provided to give you a general orientation for the size swimsuit you might wear. Slight variations from one manufacturer to another invariably occur so please check the measurements on the specific size chart available on each product.
Please feel free to try on your swimsuit when you receive it, and if it does not feel comfortable, you may return it for a different size (Health regulations stipulate that swimwear that it is soiled, worn, damaged or laundered is consider to be in other than "as new" condition and cannot be returned).
A Word on Undersizing
Many swimmers believe that in order to swim fast, they need to buy a swimsuit that is too small. When swimmers do this, they shorten the life of their swimsuit. The competition swimwear available on the swimmer.com.au website is made from an elite fabric called "Streamline" which is similar in appearance to Speedo's "Aquablade" fabric. The fabric has been tested and approved by FINA for use at international meets such as the Commonwealth Games & Olympic Games. The competition swimsuits have already been cut smaller and are unlined. We do not recommend undersizing on your competition swimwear, as this has already been taken into account.
Use these measurements when determining the size suit you need to order. If you are between sizes, we recommend ordering the smaller size.
TORSO place beginning of tape measure on your shoulder at your neck. Run tape measure over the fullest portion of your bust down between your legs and up your back to the starting point on your shoulder.
CHEST measure beginning under your arm, over the fullest part of your bust and around your back to the starting point under your arm.
WAIST bend to one side to find the crease of your natural waist. Stand straight. For female suits, measure around your natural waist making sure to allow one finger between your body and the tape. For male suits, measure 1" (2.5cm) below natural waist or just above the hip bone.
HIPS stand straight and find the top of your hip bone. Measure around your hips making sure you keep the tape on the top of your hip bone.
