Use this guide to find the best fitting Cressi BCD for you. Please note that the guide covers all sizes across all of their BCD's which means that not all sizes are available in every BCD. Please contact us if you require any further assistance with sizing or have a question about one of their BCD's. Remember, this is a guide only and we highly recommend that you try your new BCD on properly to ensure a good fit before using for the first time.
Chest
Remove or raise clothing. Use your fingers to find the top of your hips and the base of your rib cage. Your waist is the soft fleshy section between these two bony parts. It will also be the narrowest part of your torso. Hold the end of the tape measure at your naval and bring it around our waist to the front. The measuring tape should be parallel to the floor and fit snugly around tour torso without digging into your skin.
Waist
Consider the thickness of your wetsuit when choosing your BCD size. Diving in cold water requires a thicker wetsuit which can mean a larger BCD size. Allow about 2 inches (5 cm) of extra room for your waist for suits thicker than 5mm and above.
