i really liked the wetsuit it was nice and flexible although the sizing chart is to big. I followed the chart but I should of got the xs

Fits like a glove!

I got the small first but it was too big. I'm 5' and a little under 110 pounds. I ordered the extra small and it fit perfectly. I would recommend the extra small to anyone who is a similar size and weight. I wore it to a sailing regatta and it kept me really warm and dry. Great product!

xsmall too tight

these Farmer Johns are wonderful - the arms move easier than a full wet suit. However, I had to return my usual size of X-Small for a small. I am 5'5" and 115 lb. but it was a bit too snug for easy waist movement. I am sure that the Small will be just right.

Well fitted

I bought this suit for tri's but used it for surfing and it was GREAT! Fit nicely and gave me room to move.

Good fit and warm

I bought this wetsuit for early season whitewater kayaking. I wear this with a Drytop and it keeps me warm during unexpected, cold water swims. I'm 5'5 and 155 pounds and the large fits perfectly.

Good value, versatile design

I purchased one of these for myself and one for my wife for spring small boat sailing. I wear mine over a poly shirt- essentially as a waterproof garment. The 2.5 mm neoprene provides good insulation when standing waist deep in frigid water, while the lack of bulk and sleeveless design provide excellent freedom of motion when sailing. The front zipper makes putting on and off easy, and allows quick venting when out of the water. The padded knees are a nice feature. For the mens, order a size or two up. Women's seemed sized correctly.

Fits Perfectly!

I wore this wetsuit yesterday for the first time while kayaking on the Metro Hooch. I never once got a chill...it is extremely warm and does its job well (almost too well)! The zippers are heavy duty and the arm holes are plenty roomy. I'm very pleased. I'm 5'10, 145lbs and I ordered the medium. The legs don't go all the way to my ankles but my booties still made it over the opening of the legs by about 2". All in all, I recommend this wetsuit.

Great warmth in cool water or weather.

Just came back from a week in the northwoods. I couldn't be happier with the warmth of the NRS Women's Essential wetsuit. I'm now ready to purchase the shortie version for those not so cold days when I still need the core warmth.

they fit great

I tried them today for the first time kayaking. They fit well and were comfortable. I like the leg zippers because I could pull them up as it was hot. Also the sizing when I ordered had me worried. The mediums were for 5'5 and I am 5'3 they fit fine, and I was just over upper end on weight and they are comfortable. So far they are my new favorite thing

I love the front zipper & sleeveless style.

My NRS wetsuit fits great. I'm 5'7' & 130 weight & wear size XL in this suit. Kayak paddling is easy with the sleeveless arm. Got soaked on a turn over in whitewater. My hands and feet were cold and my body was insulated with the wetsuit. Love the style with front zipper & ankle zipper.
