On Tall vs Short sizing, the DUI website states: A “short” version of a size is 1” shorter in the arm length, 1” shorter in the leg length and 2” shorter in the body (girth) length.

I'm just wondering exactly where/how the 2" shorter body (girth) length is taken up in a telescoping torse suit. Is the upper section actually shorter, ie, the portion of material from shoulder to waist hem that also includes the dry zipper? Or is the folded portion under the waist made shorter, ie, the portion of material that is actually part of the lower half of the suit?

Thank you!
 
It's half upper and half lower.

Let us know if you need anything else.
