Can anyone give me an idea how these fit in comparison to Turbo's water polo suits? Do you think it is a direct 1 to 1? A medium Turbo is a 32 because it's double lined and made from a mix of Poly & PBT and little stretch. It seems like Q has a similar mix and double lined so I suspect the stretch is the same but I was more interested in the cut.
For Turbo suits, I tried both Small and Medium and I had to go with the Medium because the front was just too tight. BOGO seem like a good deal right now for Q so it's very tempting - even though I just picked up about 8 Arena suits this winter from their clearance sale...

I don't know how swimming suits from Q fit in my body. I have only waterpolo suits from Q. The same model "Eye of the Barrel" in sizes 28 and 32, bought in different times. I also have two waterpolo suits from Turbo, sizes XS (28) and S (30). When I was size 28, the Turbo suit size 28 fitted me a little snug -like a 26- but the Q one did it like a 24. I suggest going at least one size bigger than your usual size.

I ordered two q's - one water polo suit and one classic brief. Given the measurements on the site and the advice here, I went up to a 36 when I usually wear 34s. The polo suit fits pretty good at this size, but the classic brief is too big. I don't really like the fit, it doesn't give my butt much shape. Plenty of room up front, though. I feel a little square in the classic. Maybe it would have faired better down a size. I'll probably give the polo brief a swim though at some point. These are definitley inferior to the arena suits I got in their recent sale.

I bought a water polo. Went up two sizes and it was a little loose, but okay.
I just ordered another water polo going up just one size, so, we'll see.

Definetely some cool designs there. Does anyone know the side size on the waterpolo brief? They look skinny.

I have a pair and they’re quite narrow, 1.5-2” or so I would say.

Can someone comment on the back coverage of the water polo suit? From the photos on their site in the fit style guide, it looks much smaller in the back than the regular brief. But again, someone commented the back of the regular brief might even be too big so...

I have a pair of the water polo brief and it is “full coverage” still but sits very low indeed
