HendersonWoman Thermoprene Long Sleeve Shorty / Jacket (Front Zip) 3mm Scuba Wetsuit, Size: 14

--My goal this spring was to become a stronger swimmer (after 4 or 5 years of thinking about it)- I signed up for swimming lessons, checked out all the swimming pool schedules in my area....then the corona virus quarantine hit, and of course everything is cancelled. BUT, not my goal! I'm taking my plans outside!--This wetsuit is so comfortable, so well made, so soft, so easy to put on, and such a great fit ! Now I'm just waiting for our local river to reach 60 degrees, hopefully in another month, and I can start.

Price steep for me but glad I got this suit ! Goes on like a zip jacket once you step into one leg. Easy on and off. The wrists are tight but need to be. I went with 3mm as 2mm not warm enough in pool. Bought this for back injury rehab. It adds warmth and some floatation. I am 5'10" and under 140 lbs. The 8 fits well....very comfortable and well made.

I bought this for diving in the Caribbean. So far I have only used it for snorkeling, but it does a great job keeping me warm. The material and stitching appear to be good quality. I also love that it zips in the front.I looked at the size recommendations on the Henderson website and decided on a size 6 (which is my normal shorts/pants size). I'm 5'5", 130lbs, and carry most of my weight in my bottom half. I've had trouble with other suits fitting on the bottom half but being too loose on the top half. This suit is very very snug on me. It takes a little adjusting to get zipped in properly, but once I'm in I'm good. There's no gaping at the wrists or thighs. The neck is comfortable when zipped all the way to the top. But if I had been in a store I would have wanted to try on an 8 to compare.

I have a Mares suit and it actually measures 3mm. This is more like 2mm, very thin. Too thin for SCUBA diving even in tropical waters IMO. It also has big arm holes for fat arms and a lot of room for large breasts as well as a permanent wedgie. Not a good fit. Returning it.Henderson should offer instead a true 3mm long-sleeve shorty in their Thermoprene Pro line for SCUBA divers.

I am debating as to whether I should exchange the size 14 I ordered, or go a size smaller.. The 3mm shortie with long sleeves fits perfectly across the bust but is a bite big through the hips. I am a 42C in the bust, and I'm not sure a size 12 could accomdate my bustline.

I regularly wear a size 4, often times a size 2 in tops. After reading the reviews I decided to order a size 6. Too small (it fits my daughter who is a size 0-2). Ordered a size 8 and a size 10. The 8 was a bit too tight, the 10 was much too big in the upper body. In the end I kept the 8 and will deal with the tight arms and shoulders.

Very comfortable suit. Back of neck a little loose which caused water to rush in at times. Used for snorkeling in lovers cove at Catalina Island. Water temp was about 68 degrees. Stayed comfortable for about 25 minutes.

Easy to use, fit great and no hassle with a back zipper! The wrist are a little tight, but hoping after use they will loosen up.
