Rating:  "Fit" to perform
Reviewer: Eric Krichbaum, Saturday, July 14, 2007
Dive skin was very comfortable and fit well - qualified later.
Foot straps helped to keep the legs in place.
Easy to put on.
I used in 84 degree water for protection. No problem with warmth.
Slight wear in shoulder area from BC.
Dries quickly.
Size chart for me was not accurate (my wife bought one and the chart matched her measurements better).
Im 6 3", 208 lbs, 43" chest, 37" waist, shirt: 16" x 35"
Per size chart I should use XXL.
Bought one - would have had to be 30 lbs heavier to fit.
Returned for XL - fit was still loose. Neck was very loose.
Bought Large - fit great. Returned XL.

Rating: My experiance with Henderson Polyolefin Jumpsuit
Reviewer: Robert Partridge, Wednesday, April 16, 2008
I found the suit to be very easy to put on and
comfortable to wear, as opposed to neoprene suits. It
protected me from being stung by sea life almost as well
as neoprene suits. Its tendency to pill, when exposed to
velcro was about the same as neoprene. When hung up to dry
it tended to dry very quickly. For added warmth I suggest
wearing a thermal undershirt inside the suit.
Robert Partridge April 16/08.

Rating: Great Dive Skin
Reviewer: Dina K., Wednesday, April 16, 2008 - View all my reviews
I am very pleased with this dive skin. The spine pad is not just on the spine, it is also extended across the lower back allowing for more comfort from the tanks. The knee pads are also a plus. Generally one does not come into contact with coral or other sea life, however there is always that occasional event, and it is a great added protection. The skin also kept me warm, as I tend to get cold fast. I recomend this product for all divers. I was also surprised with the very reasonable price.

Rating: Dive Skin
Reviewer: Brigitte Krauss, Tuesday, June 05, 2007 - View all my reviews
I have the jump suit in size medium since 1 year and use it practically daily for swimming. It is excellent and I am very happy with it. Unfortunately you do not make the perfect size for me and I would like to know what the possibilities are to do something for that. I reordered it recently in a size large, but according to my son, who is an expert wind surfer, it did not fit tightly enough.
Your service is excellent and I am glad to know about your company from my son. Brigitte Krauss

Rating: The Best Skin!
Reviewer: Tolen May, Saturday, August 25, 2007
I really like this product - its really heavy for a skin and you dont feel like youre in a skimpy little lycra skin (which I always feel looks kinda stupid when Im wearing one). Its a great for warm water diving where you dont really need a wetsuit but dont want to dive in your shorts. The inside is nice and fuzzy and the spine pad and knee pads are really nice features.
I wanted somthing heavier than a skin but lighter than a wetsuit - I think this fills the bill.

Rating: Henderson Jumpsuit
Reviewer: Gary B., Monday, September 24, 2007
Just came back from three 100 dives off NC coast using the Henderson 17 oz superior polyolefin jumpsuit. Getting older hasnt dampened my love of diving, but it has made me less tolerant of being cold at depth. This skin added much more warmth than my previous thin skin. It worked well under my shortie. I am 61" and weigh #195. I needed the X-Large size (had to return a large), so be generous with the sizing.

Rating: Best for warm water
Reviewer: Matti S., Thursday, April 10, 2008 - View all my reviews
This is an excellent dive skin, best I have tried. Its a little more substantial than the old version. Polyolefin feels better on (my) skin in and out of water than lycra and gives more abrasion protection. It also works great with a light wetsuit jacket or shorty, giving a little more warmth and a lot more protection against sun, rocks and critters. Also, no logos that peel off in water like in some lycras.

Rating: Very nice suit
Reviewer: Justin Stuart, Monday, February 26, 2007 - View all my reviews
I really like my polyolefin jumpsuit. I wear it underneath my 7mm wetsuit and it definitely adds a level of insulation but also makes donning and doffing the wetsuit much easier, even when wet. and on days that are very warm, you can just wear the jumpsuit for skin protection. highly recommend this product for use as separate layer or as another layer of insulation under your current suit.

Rating: easy warmth
Reviewer: Charles B., Thursday, March 15, 2007 - View all my reviews
This fit my petite wife great. The added warmth was just enough to let her enjoy snorkeling in 78 degree water for over an hour. Normally she chills out after 30 minutes. Easy to put on, made her look good too and protected her from wind on the beach afterwards.
Great investment for someone who wouldnt wear a 2mil neoprene suit because of the bulk, seemed to give the same warmth.

Rating: Warming up to the suit.
Reviewer: Kelley D., Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - View all my reviews
This wetsuit was not my first choice but I have been pleased with it and like it mych better after using it several times. I wish it was offerred in more colors. It is easy to put on and take off. It was the perfect suit for my most recent dive in Cayman - not too hot or too cold. It is fairly priced. I would purchase it again - especially if other colors were offered.

Rating: the ultimate sunscreen
Reviewer: Dominick Williams, Thursday, March 15, 2007
Spent 20 yrs slapping on SPF 45 and whining about bits I missed until I bought this skin. Snorkeled for several hours every day for a week without any burn. Also went body surfing for a day when everyone else got jelly fish stings and had full protection. Well made and generously sized, I am 60", 220lbs and bought XXL might have been ok with XL.

Rating: Made my day
Reviewer: LARRY H., Thursday, April 12, 2007 - View all my reviews
I used the jumpsuit as a liner to a 7mm wet suit on a recent dive trip to Catalina. My group made one night dive and six day dives. I was surprised at how comfortable my dives were in the 54-57 degree water. (The others in my group wore dry suits) I highly recommend this suit/liner for anyone that dives in what I consider cold water.

Rating: Highly recommended for women
Reviewer: Vincent M., Thursday, March 01, 2007 - View all my reviews
Nice fit and finish. Xtra features including padding in the back and knees much appreciated. Front zipper easy to work. Sharp looking on women. Somewhat difficult to remove when wet, but easy enough to take off in reverse and turn back right side after off. Very comfortable for 80-85 degree water off Costa Rica this past February.

Rating: Love it
Reviewer: James H., Sunday, May 20, 2007 - View all my reviews
Perfect for instruction in the pool. Just enough protection to keep you warm, but not so much that you get hot. I wear it under a 7mm wetsuit for cold water diving and it provides that extra bit of protection you can sometimes need. Not to mention how easy it makes getting in and out of heavy wetsuits. And it dries super-fast too.

Rating: Henderson Polyfin Jumpsuit
Reviewer: Forest Rothchild, Tuesday, September 04, 2007 
Now I am a big guy that unfortunately has a reaction to neoprene. But give to Henderson to make a suit that offers enough protection that I can where this as base layer under my wet suit or alone in the warmer waters and not have a break out. The spine padding is a nice touch and the suit fits great.

Product was as described,light weight and as a 2xxer the fit is great. Liked the padding features especially the back protection from the tank. Tested the product in our local pool
Off to Mexico tomorrow for sea trials at the reef at Cabo Pulmo and then to Gordo Bank with the Hammer Head sharks.

Rating: The seams are not good
Reviewer: Kenneth Reinstadler, Wednesday, February 28, 2007
I purchased this skin for a trip to the Society Islands on a live-aboard boat. After about 13 dives the seams started pulling apart. I am returning it to Henderson for replacement by one with sewn seams. This was my wifes suit, but my Akona suit was great!

Love it. The fit is good. Warmer than just a skin and easier to get on than a wet suite. Purchased one for myself and went back and got one for my spouse as a gift. This is my 3rd purchase from Scuba.com and I have been satisfied with each.

Rating: Great liner, very comfortable
Reviewer: Brian N., Monday, April 30, 2007
Perfect for warm water diving, or using as a first layer (I wear under a 2mm shorty).
Sizing ran larger than indicated on the web site. I had to reorder a size smaller.
I am very happy with the product.

I am an infant and child swim instructor. This suit is perfect for being in the pool for a few hours. It is warm, and I can move quickly in it. It is also easy to get in and out of and isnt the least bit buoyant.
