Great for swimming in chilly water
I bought this suit for swimming in moderately chilly water (55 - 70 F, or 12.8 - 21.1 C). The suit is perfect for this. I've tested it out twice already in water that was 58 - 62 F (14.4 - 16.7 C), and I was able to stay in the water indefinitely. Normally I would only be able to swim for 5 - 10 minutes in water this chilly (if I even managed to get in at all)! But with the suit I was able to swim for an hour and a half without getting cold. The only reason I got out of the water was that I became hungry/thirsty/tired!I should've bought one of these suits years ago! People on the beach kept asking me where they could get one, because they noticed I was the only person who was swimming comfortably and staying in the water for more than 10 minutes.I bought a size medium. I am 5'3" (160 cm), 130 lbs (~60 kg), measurements 35-27-36 (89.9-68.6-91.4 cm). The medium fits me very well: it's tight, but not so tight that it restricts my movement.Sometimes a trickle of cold water will run down my back or up the sleeves, so I guess my wrists and neck must be proportionally a little smaller than average. But since the water I'm swimming in is only moderately cold, this isn't much of an issue. Also, I bought some neoprene gloves as well, which easily fixes the issue of chilly water running up my sleeves. So it's really just the occasional trickle of cold water down my back that's an issue (& again it's a small issue).I'm not a diver; I don't know anything about wetsuits in general. But I can definitely say that this suit is great if you love to swim but hate cold water.

Summer in October
Trying to extend summer through October in Washington. I was worried about the body length since I have a long torso. Works and fits great!

Stretchy wetsuit; Felt like Aquaman
I needed a wetsuit for diving so I had searched and read many reviews and finally decided to buy from this brand. I am 5’10” & 190lbs, so I ordered a black wetsuit in size L. This size is a little tight, especially on the belly part. However, as a diver with a PADI license, I understood that wetsuitsshould fit snugly; thus generating a thin layer of water while diving and keeping my body warm. I initially tested the wetsuit in my swimming pool and it was fairly stretchy. I still felt warm when the temperature was around 55℉. I also had a chance diving several days later in Orlando. The temperature was higher, but the wetsuit was still necessary. While wearing the wetsuit and the snorkel set that I bought together, the diving trip turned out so much fun & enjoyable. I freely swam in the deep sea, saw various ocean creatures and sea-plants, and really felt like Aquaman! Everything can be cured by water! This was truly a great experience, even during the Pandemic. Overall, I was satisfied with the wetsuit which was stretchy enough and the quality was better than expected. Pros:-Less expensive: I think this wetsuit was even better than the $280 wetsuit I bought elsewhere before.-Stretchy enough: Made by premium material.-Warm enough & felt comfortable.-YKK zipper: a well-known brand. Cons:-Sizes: It would’ve been better if there were more sizes available, then I would’ve found a better sizefor my belly, Lol..

What Size to order
I read may articles/notes on what size wet suit to order. Most depend on height and weight, but some stated they ran large (or small). So, it suggests you order accordingly. I took a chance and chose SMALL, as I was right on the line for a small or medium. I am 5'9" tall and weight 160 lbs. I immediately tried it on and went for a cold water swim. It seemed to fit just fine and work as advertised.

Good!
First wetsuit, so nothing to compare it to, but kept me warm in Northern California Pacific Ocean water on a February weekend! Swam/body boarded for hours w my kids and only my feet got cold. Retro colors. Perfect fit for me 5’5” size 4 top and 6 bottom. I ordered a medium.

Compliment Worthy
Looks retro in person, but everyone loves it. Also some fish were intrigued by the colors and followed me around. Fits well, I am 5'11, 150 lbs and got the medium.

Keeps me warm and buoyant in sea water
UPDATE:Ok. So its December now and the suit is still keeping me warm and buoyant, but look at the second picture of whats happening to the neckline. No real reason for it to be unraveling like this except that they didn't protect the neckline in construction.This is the best thing ever. I had trouble staying buoyant in sea water because I did afternoon swimming lessons and felt very cold once the sun began to set. This suit kept me warm and buoyant so that I was able to swim about 600 meters today. I feel so accomplished. Normally I wouldn't get more than 10 without stopping. Today I only stopped at like 50m and my confidence to tread went sky high. Yes!! I'm 141lbs and slimly built...this medium suit fits like a glove, but my coach says over time they stretch with use. I like the glove feeling really. I stayed warm and I was buoyant. Love it.

Functional and fashionable, zipper broke, company replaced it
UPDATE to the Update: The seller contact me and sent me a replacement suit in a timely manner. I still hope to find someone local who can repair the original suit, but I have now used my replacement for about a month, and it’s working great!UPDATE: My wet suit zipper broke after four uses. So disappointing, as I really loved this wetsuit. I hope the company will replace it for me.ORIGINAL Review was 5 stars: I am new to cold weather open water swimming, and this was my first time using a wet suit. It works really well and is super comfortable. The water is exhilarating!
