Surprised at the initial lack of problems at this price
Never worn a wetsuit before and have no experience with them, bought this for cold weather kayaking in case I capsize in cold water. Surprised at how it went, especially considering the price. Sized well, able to get it on without incident other than the zipper leash being too short to reach, but I'll rig a workaround for that. Youtube video showed a simple trick using a shopping bag to help slide limbs through. Fit well, seems well made. I have used them twice now and the first time I was expecting some discomfort but had none, 55 degree weather on the water less than an hour didn't feel cold. Full range of motion, not restrictive but also not baggy at all. Getting them off was a worry, never having worn one before. Turns out they come off simply, just peel off inside out. Next 45 degree weather and with thin duafold thermals underneath I kayaked a river for 2 hours without incident, now I need to get neoprene boots and gloves as well, hands and feet get cold fast.

Great for the price
For what you pay its great. If it lasts you one or two seasons you've got your money's worth. The suit seems reasonably well made. As some others have said the zipper pull strap is a little bit short but it's not terrible, I can reach it without too much trouble and honestly that shouldn't take away from the rating of a suit, tie a piece of paracord to it if you cant reach. I have another three mil that I paid about 20 bucks more for that seems to be a little bit more heavy duty but it's also tighter & more restrictive which is not good when you're trying to paddle a surfboard. This suit is a tad looser in the crotch and armpits which I like because I don't feel like I'm being strangled. The rubber on the chest and back is also nice. I am 5'10 and 190 pounds and I have long arms and legs and a broad chest, the XL fits me just fine.

Great wetsuit
I’ve worn the Wetsuit once on a hike through Zion National Park, repelling down cliffs and through cold water that you have to swim in. I was 11 hours in the wetsuit. It worked great and I am glad that I bought it.

Good Value
Bought this to use while Sea-Dooing on the local river. My first time using it the air temp was about 48F, water temp was closer to 40F. I had a thermal base layer on the torso under the suit. Considering the temps it did very well. After running at 45mph for a half hour I was starting to get chilly, but just playing without the wind chill was very pleasant. I ended up fully submerged many times and was well protected from the cold. My hands and feet froze to the point where I lost both water shoes on a bail off and did not even notice until I parked my Doo, the rest of me was just fine and warm. I'm not familiar with wet suits and bought this based on the price and number if good reviews.I'm 6 foot 190 lbs and followed their sizing chart which gave me a good fit, nothing baggy and not too tight.Overall it is an excellent value for what I needed it for. As soon as my new water boots show up I'm hitting the river again before the snow starts falling.

Great value, works very well
I bought this for some cold water canyoneering, and it performed very well. I am 5'9" 145 pounds and fits mostly very well. It's a little short in the legs, and a little baggy around the shoulders and arms. I have a very thin athletic body type that doesn't quite match up with clothes super often so I didn't expect it to fit perfectly, but it's close enough for me to be happy with it. For the price, I'm quite pleased with the quality. The thick rubberized knees and chest/belly area is probably great for surfing. It does add friction on rocks as I squeeze past them, but it doesn't really bother me much. It adds some toughness which I can appreciate.The only other complaint I have is that the neck is really tight for me, but I've found that's true for just about every wetsuit I've owned or tried on except the V neck jacket or vest types.

Overall good wetsuit for price - zipper leash is short
Overall great wetsuit for price. Only drawback is the zipper leash on back is super short and no way for me to even reach/grab it and zip it up (so I connected a different longer chord of my own that works). But the 3mm wetsuit itself is fine & went body surfing yesterday in 59 degree water. I'm 6'0 220lbs and bought XXL which fits nice.

5-11 215 blue 3mm fits at XXL
I'm 5'11'' and currently weigh 215. 43'' chest, 40'' gut, waist is closer to 36''.This is the Blue 3mm suit. its fits nicely at XXL. Its snug but not uncomfortable. I could wear it around my waist all day and be comfortable. zipped in, its a tight fit due to my chest size, but it fits and its comfortable. Absolutely, no extra space once its zipped up.Pleasantly surprised at the fit and quality.

Nearly perfect
My old wetsuit (also a 1-piece jumpsuit style) was kind of old and the collar was deteriorating - possibly from sunscreen. I ordered this as a replacement. Overall, even before getting wet, I'm happy with it.Just a few observations:ProsI'm 6'1" 215 lbs., ordered a XXL (same as my old one) and it fits like it was custom tailored for me.I don't recall seeing this in the item description, but the knees are reinforced with a textured reinforced material.The price is just unbelievably low for this level of quality.Cons:Yeah, as other reviewers have noted, the zipper tether could be a wee bit longer. Instead of bending down and grabbing it overhead, behind my neck I have to wrestle it around my arm and pull it up. A minor inconvenience.The front chest area is black, contrasting with the colored zones (I chose grey) but that black are is also a different material that does not have the nylon tricot outer fabric layer. It does have a fine surface texture, but no fabric to impart abrasion resistance. Could be an issue...I'll wait and see...One more thing-- as I look at myself in the mirror, it reminds me of Deiter on SHPROCKETS (Mike Myers, SNL). "Now is the time on Shprockets when we dance." So, I got that goin' for me...

Amazing value
I bought this convinced that I would receive a cheap, poorly-crafted item. This is a genuine wetsuit, no frills, with perfect fit and great overall quality. I have 5-6 dives in it so far and I'm extremely satisfied. People on the boat could not believe the price I had paid. The stitches look good and it shows no sign of premature wear. I'm extremely satisfied.
