glad i read the reviews
so I'm 5'10", 170lbs, avg-athletic build. I was about to order the "med" size, and was glad that I ordered the 2XL after reading the reviews on it. It fits me like a glove... or like a skin suit.
The material is not the highest quality, but it's still pretty good. Quality zipper. Mine came in all black... which is exactly what I wanted.
I think it was a very decent price.

Fits like Second Skin
I love this suit it fits perfectly. Use for under your normal winter wet suit or as a summer dive suit. im 5'4 180 pounds and the large fits me like a glove. Its been 100 degrees around Southern California lately so this lycra material is perfect for any kind of water activity. it blocks the suns UV rays and takes the chill off any night swims.
Shipping only took 5 business days. This suit looks like and out performs more exspensive types.
Thank You,
Diver-Supply

Go big! I could only order one size larger due to 2xx was out of stock. Tried it on in the comfort of home and thought it'd be ok, but add tropic humidity and needed help to get it on. After diving, there was no way I could get it off my shoulders without assistance!

Size
This is perfect for me diving in hot florida/Fl Keys water. As for the sizing: I went by other opinions when I ordered mine, and I'm glad I did. Go 2 sizes larger. I am 5'11", 215lbs and simi muscular. I ordered the 3XL. It fits great. The legs are somewhat long on me, but for a person in the 6' ot 6'6" it will problaby be perfect. If you are around my height, the legs being a tad long are no problem.

It Fits!
I am a woman, and I ordered the Medium, with fear that it would not fit (inseam-wise and weight) my 5 ft 8 in height and 123 lbs hourglass-shaped body. I have a 32 in inseam, and it fits perfectly! I was very happy with how the fit came out! It's only an inch short in the arms, but with the band that is no problem.

Sun Protection; Modesty, Easy to put on Wet Suit
I love these for 3 main reasons:
Sun Protection - before and after dives, and other days like the water park
Modesty - nice light cover up
Smooth - makes it easier to pull on and take off wet suit

I agree with Scott. I have approximately the same weight and height, and the medium fits absolutely perfect. I'm glad I decided to stick with the medium size when I ordered, as ordering two sizes larger would have been a disaster. Maybe the larger sizes are cut small, but if you're a smaller guy, then stick with what the sizing chart recommends. It's a great suit for the money, also.

If you are tall Buy 2 sizes up!
I am a female 5'9" & 170lbs with an athletic build (33" inseam). I ordered the Large, but was suprised when the inseam measured 25 1/2" while on & stretched. I tried on the 2XL I ordered for my Husband & it fit perfect! It fits like a skin should! My daughter is 5'2" & 90 lbs (26" inseam). She tried on the Small, but was much happier in the Lg; which gave her better length in the inseam. I will be returning the Small and ordering a 3XL for my 6'2" husband. These are great suits at an excellent price. Found them at a local dive shop for twice the price.

Sizes are way too small
I'm 6' 185 lbs, my son is 5'8" 165 lbs and the XL size is too small for either of us. Consider ordering 2 sizes larger than normal.

Great, but buy one size up
I'm 6'4'' 200 and bought the 3xl based on someone else's review and they were right on. Look at the measuring chart for size they provide and then order one up. Other than that it is great and once on very comfortable and better than a shortie.

Sizing
Female 5'6 and 135 lbs, consider myself slender and fit.. the medium fits and like most wetsuits, snug to pull over the shoulders. if I gain 10lbs I'd have to have a large.

I'm a 5'6" male that weighs 185# with a 34" waist. I needed an XL and it's still tight getting on. Once on however, it feels great and stretches well.

Sizing info
Not to confuse the issue, but I am a 5'9" man who weighs 150# I have the medium, and it fits fine. It is a little tight getting it over the shoulders, but once I wiggle in it works great. I also have a small that my daughter uses. She is 5'4" and 130#, again great fit. Down here in Guantanamo, gear gets shared a lot. Both the medium and small have worked for people about the same size. Great price and tremendous value. After 50 dives it still works great.
