3 of 5 Fit too large around the belly September 6, 2020
Reviewer: Dent the swimmer from Salt Spring Island, BC Canada  
My "L" size vest fit nicely snug around my wide chest and shoulders, and felt "OK" around the waist until I got into the water, at which point, as I swam out into the cold lake water, the vest billowed out around the belly gave me no warmth.   If your body type is "swimmer" or "athletic" then I recommend you try one on at a store.

2 of 5 Sized for larger waists July 23, 2020
Reviewer: Dennis from Salt Spring Island, BC Canada  
The Size L vest had a great fit around my chest and shoulder area, comfortably snug but, as tight as it was, causing no discomfort (great for a triathlete) and plenty easy motion as I swam.

Unfortunately the lower half of the vest billowed outward so way too much cold water got inside, surrounding my belly and lower back -- resulting in no warmth, just feeling  coldness of the water.

Swimmers with an athletic build (waist smaller than the chest/shoulders) should look for another manufacturer. That's unfortunate as the quality of the materials seems very good. I'd prefer the "euro-fit" not the billowy size of this vest.
