Stunning suit underwater.

Yes, that is just what I need, I wish more guys would list this sort of thing. I wear size 32 trousers but find 32 Speedos are quite a squash - not because I am particularly well endowed but I think it might be because I swim and cycle a lot and the bubble butt steals some of the material intended for the front. So the waist size might not be a good reflection of the size. Aussiebum 20 (XL) is slightly too large, and Funky Trunk at 34 are fine.

Your 32 trousers are probably 33 to 34 inches in inside diameter. Vanity sizing has struck mens trousers.

If you measure around four finger widths below your navel, that's your Speedo size. They are pretty much consistent, both US and Europe (even through different companies). Only exception I've found is the Solar, which has such an oversized pouch that I need to size down two inches.

Well, the technical suits are a whole 'nuther world. Most people don't have enough calves to fill up the calf sizes in the sizing chart.
