Thanks colby! I hadn't seen that calculator, will def try it. I'll keep my eye open for 2XU suits, but surprisingly for a cold country there aren't that many brands on sale here.
Eta: that calculator was really cool! With "wide shoulder and narrow hips" and my specs the 2XU suits came up first, then the Desoto, then the Orca. When I changed to "swimmers build" or "runners build" the 2XU were still on top with BlueSeventy suits rated second, when I changed to "cyclists build" the BlueSeventy suits came up on top. I'm guessing this reflects decreasing space for the upper body and more space for the legs. Very handy to know.
