perfect fit
I was very nervous about ordering a wetsuit on-line. Most of the reviews suggest to buy a couple of sizes bigger then normal. I bought the size that my measurements suggested according to the chart. This jacket fit perfectly. I use it to swim lengths on cool days in an outdoor pool. It is a nice tight fit and the zipper makes it very easy to get in and out of. Exactly what the doctor ordered.

Best Investment for Snorkeling
I bought this jacket to wear when I snorkel. I am always cold even in warmer water and would like to stay in longer. I have used full wetsuit in past but not a fan of the difficulty putting on and taking off. A jacket and pants was a huge improvement. This jacket fit great. I was concerned with how long the sleeves were and how far down on hips it would sit. I spent a lot of time online searching for a reasonably priced jacket but was very dismayed with the sizing of a lot of brands. I am 5'10" and 140 lbs. I do have pretty thin arms and there was a little extra room here, but did not hinder my swimming in any way. The bottom of the jacket came to my lower hips, which are 38".I ordered a size 12 and the fit was awesome. I used it everyday when I snorkeled and was able to stay in the water for longer periods of time. It was a comfortable jacket. The zip front was easy on/off. You did have to tug at the sleeve a little to get it off, but thats how a wetsuit fits. It allows a little bit of water in that your body heats up and keeps you warm while your in water. So much easier than wearing a full wetsuit. I definitely recommend this jacket.

LOVE IT!
Love having a full-zippered jacket instead of my old partial front zipper. So much easier to take on and off! True to size fit. I use it to keep my muscles warm in water classes. Remember, these are supposed to be tight to do what they're meant to do. LOVE IT!

Was the best thing we decided to pack!
Just spent a week in Maui snorkeling every day. It was typical Maui weather; warm and muggy. Water temps were around 80 to 82 degrees.Lots of people were snorkeling without neoprene tops, but I guarantee that my husband and I were probably the most comfortable. He had short sleeves and I had long. I was a little worried that I would overheat, but that was not the case. We were both so happy to be able to stay in the water for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, and only came out because we were physically tire.As for size, I found it useful to check other review that gave actual measurements, so here I go.5 foot 2, 140 lbs. I got a 14 which fit well, but I did find that it was a little long in the body. This didn't really bother me. It was snug, but not uncomfortable. It did seem to loosen up when wet. Perhaps I could have gotten away with a 12, but this worked really well

Up one size.
I ordered up one size and it fits a little lose. That is fine because I’m wearing as a jacket for my wave runner. Follow the size chart! These folks saying to order 3 sizes up must be using their “wish they were” measurements. Had I ordered my normal size it probably would be wearable but not comfy.

height 5'6) and so I went with a size 12 and am very happy with the fit
I bought this product to use for jetskiing so I did not need skin tight. My sizing was all over the chart (athletic build, bust 36, waist 28, weight 155, height 5'6) and so I went with a size 12 and am very happy with the fit!

Too loose to swim in
Based on the reviews, I thought it ran small. My experience is that it runs large (or maybe my body runs small). I am 5'5", 110 lbs, and if I wore it like a top, the size 6 would be fine, but swimming in it is another thing. The sleeves were so loose, they caught the water. Same with the neck line. I heard the water sloshing around in there. Not practical for swimming. Maybe a size 4 would be better, but it's too late to return it since I wore it swimming in the frigid health club pool. I guess it's ok to use to plunge directly into the pool and do a few kick-board laps before swimming, but I can't see using it to swim in.

Fits Tight, but that is By Design
My best suggestion when purchasing this item is to pay attention to the sizing chart. This wetsuit jacket does fit rather tight, but that is how it supposed to be in order for it to be effective.The zipper is very study and once it is zipped, it stays closed. I don't have to worry about loose areas being a problem nor does the suit seem to be too tight. I ordered a size 12 because I have a rather large bust and broad shoulders. The suit still fit nicely around the waist. It had enough stretch and give to be comfortable to allow me natural movement.

Order one size up
I loved the colors of this jacket, but the sizing felt off. I got a 6 & maybe should have got an 8. I usually wear small to medium tops, 34d. But I needed it right away to go on vacation. I returned this jacket
