Shorty Wetsuits for Mens Womens 2mm Front Zip Diving Suits

These were great. Everything worked well and fit well.

Comfortable, fits a woman's body well (even with large hips) and served its purpose. Follow the size chart as for it is accurate.

Wearing this suit allows you to enjoy the water at the shoulder seasons in my area of the country. In May, the ocean starts warming but it is still 60 degrees--too cold for a comfortable swim or snorkel. With a shorty suit like this, you can comfortably enter the water at 60 degrees and swim without risking hypothermia or getting really chilled. Your skin is exposed below the knee and elbow but the core of your body is protected by a warm layer of water trapped between the suit and your skin and it works well. Putting this on and taking it off is easy because you can zip yourself in and out with a nice long front facing zipper which is smooth to use. After use, I rinse it with fresh water and leave it out to dry. The quality is good and the design is attractive and comfortable--a good purchase.

A well-designed front-zip shorty wetsuit, such as this Seaskin model, features a zipper extending from the neck to the knee and opens in a manner similar to a jacket. When fully opened, this design provides additional space in the shoulders and facilitates easier removal after use. Some shorty wetsuits do not have a full-length zipper and are essentially full wetsuits with shorter sleeves and legs. Without a full-length zipper, they are difficult to remove at the shoulders and may require assistance, similar to regular full wetsuits. Although this design reduces manufacturing costs, these shorty versions can be more expensive. When purchasing, ensure the zipper is full length, as with this Seaskin model. The Seaskin does not include the neck closure found in the company's full-length model, allowing cold water to enter at the neck. The zipper is uncomfortable when fully closed, and leaving it slightly open increases water leakage. I would have rated the Seaskin a 5 if this issue were not present.

Easy to put on an off ! I have an advanced Scuba Certification, and lots of experience with wet suits. Wet suits are a pain in the ass to put on and take off. This shorty, with the zipper from bottom of short-let to collar, is a breeze to put on an take off!

This fits as described, comfortable, water ready. Zips as it should with a sturdy zipper. This is just the right mm for warmth and functions well in the water.

Awesome size

This Seaskin Shorty Wetsuit is different than all my others in that the zipper is on the front. I could not tell from the pictures, but the zipper goes all theveay from the neck down through the left leg. I really appreciate the front zipper. So much easier than the acrobatics needed for a rear zipper. I like the 2mm thickness. Gives me lots of maneuverability and is great for cooler water activity days. Having said that, I see a couple of improvements. The zipper should end at the hip. It is easy to get legs on these suits and the zipper would not buckle when bending down. Secondly, the zipper edges are all finished with fold over seam, which makes it a bit thicker along the zipper. Laying on a paddle board or surfboard will beva bit more noticeable. Otherwise a great shorty wetsuit.
