Hi
Just after some advice as can't try on
I measured my stomach above navel area sucked in slightly and was 34inch
Mystic med is 32 to 34
Large 34 to 36
Im unsure which one
I assume with a hard back harness they don't give like they use to
If you are buying on the internet anyway because your local doesn't stock them, why not order both and send the one that doesn't fit back? Obviously you can't wear in the water but wearing them out of the box shouldn't be a problem.
Sure you'll pay a few bucks in return postage but probably less than the petrol driving all over to find both sizes in stock and at the end of the day the shop still gets a sale. Probably a bit cheeky to order both to try on if you don't think you want either but if you can't decide which but want to buy one then ..... no harm, no foul?
That said, have you tried asking if your local shop can get them in? I know that most of my local shops have a relationship with suppliers that they might not routinely stock and will order in if I ask them.
