The thickness is up to the diver in the end. However, in 65-70 degree water we recommend a full suit that is at least 5-7mm thick.

I only buy Henderson for both their reputation and dependability. I do find that you should look to buy one size up from what you would normally look to secure.
Stylish and practical.

This 3mm shorty is exactly as advertised. You can't beat the value it offers. It goes on easily and comes off with little effort. I am 5'10, 175 lbs. with a 42 chest and an athletic build, so I ordered a size large, and the fit is perfect. It's kind of personal preference, but I like the 3mm shorty because it keeps my core warm in temperatures between 69 and 75 degrees F, but I'm not overheating in the warmer shallow water temperatures.
Thank you for the great review
