My two PSI:

  • Go to the wetsuit warehouse site (I am not in any way affiliated - just a big fan)
  • Use the sizing chart
  • Make sure you buy a 100% stretch material suit (much more forgiving on size, but also much warmer and more comfortable)
  • Order suit
Cheap as chips, and you can't really go too far wrong. I have bought three this way, and been happy with each one.

PS. I don't know if it makes any difference, but I always buy 'surfing' wetsuits rather than 'diving' wetsuits. They don't wear as well (my answer: learn bouyancy control), but they just seem slightly more flexible and more comfortable, and less prone to flush.
 
Okay. Allow me to conclude: I'll try before i buy.
Thank you all for your answers, it's been helpful:)

Edit: to Rhone Man.
Thank you for the link and the note, but I have to buy in Norway, or the shipment costs will most likely kill my budget!
