I just bought a Large Matrix suit, Large Switch Vest, Large Gloves, and size 34 switchPants. I already own previous versions of the same gear in the exact sizes and it all fits. I had to send the gloves, pants and suit back because they were all too small.

What teh hell!!!, who's making this stuff anyway. Most of the worlds population is overweight, shouldn't a large be bigger now than before?

I just needed to Rant, It's a good thing I lost 37lbs so I can still wear my old stuff.

Newer suits are better, newer type of wetsuit material. I know the one I got was tight as hell until I got it wet and also stretched alot easier too.

So your saying that it loosens up or just stretches enough that being tight doesn't matter? I could barely get the suit on much less ever wear the jacket overtop.

I still love my 99 LTD Matrix suit, great suit and still in great shape, just 4000miles from here is the problem. I figured it was a good time to upgrade.

Good news is I ordered from Dennis Kirk and they include a preauthorized UPS return label with every order so returning things is a breeze now. I was impressed by this at least.

No, it should not be uncomfortable tight. If its not snug and touching your skin, it will not do its job as a suit. :fing02:

about 4 years ago, it seams Slippery changed the sizing some, If you have a suit from around 2000-2002, order one size larger.
