Rating: Great Value for price
Reviewer: Robert Dennard, Monday, September 21, 2009 - View all my reviews
This wetsuit fits well and has lots of stretch. Its easy to put on and once in the water you hardly know its there... except that it gives you the needed warmth. As always, the service from scuba.com was very good.

Rating: Excellent Suit for the Money!
Reviewer: Steven L., Monday, September 14, 2009 - View all my reviews
I used this wet suit on a recent dive trip to Belize. Very satisfied with the comfort level this suit afforded. However, as with any wet suit, it was still tough to get on and off. So the hype about "pyrostretch" is over-rated, in my opinion. Be that as it may, I still feel that it was a good value for the money & would recommend this suit. Steve from CT

Rating: A great cool water suit
Reviewer: Donald A P., Thursday, December 04, 2008
I used the XS Scuba 3/2 Jumpsuit in the Caymans the last of November. The water was 79F, a little on the cool side. The suit was easy to put on, fit perfectly and I was quite comfortable. The suit is quite well made. I recommend this suit highly.

Rating: Comfortable suits
Reviewer: Mark B., Wednesday, August 27, 2008
I live in a divers paradise, Palau. I have been diving with XS Scuba suit I bought right after I came to Palau. The suit has been comfortable, easy to put on and take off even when it is wet but with short sleeves and legs suit I become very cold at the end of each dive, particularly on the second dive. I recently went out for diving with my new suit and was very happy because I never became cold and was able to enjoy diving. I was worried that I may become overheated but I did not. The suit is comfortable and light and it did not strict my movement in water. There is no zippers at ankles but I did not have problem putting on and taking off. Size 8 fits me nicely. I am petite, 53 1/3" and weigh 115 lb. The suit can fit a person slightly taller and heavier than me. The price is good too.

Rating: Best wet suit
Reviewer: Ricardo P., Saturday, September 29, 2007 - View all my reviews
The best wet suit. Just used it in the Philippines diving in Anilao. Easy on and easy off but nice and snug. The fit was perfect for a tall (63") guy like me. I weigh 200 lbs and getting a tall but relatively think wet suit is tough. So this was great. Could not be better.

Rating: A Great Value...........Much more wetsuit than I expected
Reviewer: Jon Brink, Sunday, July 22, 2007
this being my first purchase from scuba.com i had not gotten my hopes set too high and was ready to return the wetsuit and pay full retail at my local dive shop. the suit was an incredible value and fit well even being a slightly out of shape 43 year old chef. their links to sizing charts for various mfg. proved to be invaluble in buying a suit on line. also the online guidence for finding the right suit for specific diving area was very helpful. my dive trip was to the caymans and while the water was @ 84 degrees and i could have used a lighter skin i was very comfortable in the water and stayed warm while the others on my dive boat were cold between dives in windy and rainy conditions. scuba.com has the best price and ion i have found and will absolutely shop them first when making my next purchase. they gave me one less thing to worry about on my trip. jon brink, austin tx

Rating: Warm, Comfortable, Well Built, Good Seals, Super for Hawaii or any other Warm Waters. A+++++
Reviewer: Julia Johnson, Saturday, May 26, 2007 - View all my reviews
Dont get a shortie. Get this jumpsuit. It was very stretchy, you forget you have it on. Easy to put on and the usual slight difficulty peeling it off when wet. Dries in a few hours. The comfort of this suit is fantastic. It is well stitched and showed very little sign of wear after two weeks snorkeling in Maui. The collar seals well and is comfortable. I had a small loose "pocket" in the suit at the base of my back but it never bothered me at all once I was swimming, never got a cold rush at all. Water in Maui is colder than in the Caribbean. Dont imagine that a t-shirt is sufficient if you want to do REAL snorkeling. It is also very bouyant, you can just float and watch fish or turtles without any effort. That gives it a high safety factor in waters with currents. Needless drownings occur in Maui every year because of currents - protect yourself with this suit. The color is nice and does not bring the negative attention that silver suits do. I have never tried the very expensive suits but after wearing this I will never need to. It is reasonably priced, seals well in the collar, arms and legs, is well designed and stitched, stretchy, very comfortable, warm and bouyant. It also has very good knee pads to prevent injury. This suit is perfect for warm water snorkeling or diving. I had a shorty before when I went to Bonaire, Bahamas and Maui and trust me, this jumpsuit is far superior and gives far better service. I dont have a problem with pride or trying to look cool like some do with shorties or lycra suits with cool designs - when I do water sports I want comfort and safety and this suit delivers. Get it. Dont think about it, get it.

Rating: I would do it again
Reviewer: Matthew Waxter, Saturday, May 26, 2007 - View all my reviews
I purchased a 3/2 MM RIO JUMPSUIT and a pair of XS Scuba Kevlar Bug Grabber 2MM Gloves from Scuba.com. 8 shoredives in Hawaii at 4 different locations in May 2007. My dive buddy started out with just swimming trunks. After getting scrapped up on rock and reef he too wore full suit and gloves. With water temps at up to 79F I was fine ie no overheating.
