This is interesting, cause in the name of science I tried on a friends swimsuit today. She has a Speedo suit in the same Endurance material that I have, in what the label said is the exact same size, just newer. But it was far too long for me! She's a bit taller so it fits her fine, but it wouldn't have fit me. Anyone know if the length is on the label too? I couldn't see any difference.

I'm a bit chary of buying a (gorgeous, smashing, cool) swimsuit from TYR over the net if sizes can vary that much. Don't know where I'd find that brand here otherwise.
