Subject: Tri-Top Fitment
I'm new to tri clothing and have just picked up a Decente and Pearl Izumi TriTop in medium as per their respective sizing charts for me: 5-11 165# medium build. The Decente compresses my upper body pretty well wheras the Izumi much less so. My question is, which is the better fit if had to choose based on purpose?

Strictly based on purpose, the tighter fit would be better,especially on the bike -- less drag. However, comfort is also a major consideration. Which feels better to you? I prefer my tops a bit loose rather than tight.
