I'm 5ft8, 32in-34in in the waist, 82-86Kg and 42-44in in the chest... converting to CMs and following the sizing chart I'm neither Medium nor Large... I fit neatly inside the medium EXCEPT the Chest... I'm also large in the shoulders.
What would be the best compromise - to go for the large and it be a bit big in the bottom half but comfortable in the top or go for medium and be comfortable in the bottom half but tight in the top????

I would go for the loose chest option as the last few tri's (only done 3 sprints!) i have done, on the run you will be going all out meaning screaming lungs! Deep deep breaths and maximum lung capacity and trustme anything constrictive around your chest area you will really feel it, you will feel like you are being suffocated.
I generally undo my trisuit at this stage to aid breathing, to the horror of my wife - i get told to do it up you look awful!
good luck

I went determined to buy an Orca because i liked the black and white image however they didin't have my size and i ended up with a Sugoi and it's great.

dunno if this will help - but it may be worth seeing if your local club has a suit ....
