Only size for me.

By JENIFER B.

 -  Raleigh, NC, US

Perfect size for people who are, well, who like to eat.

 

Very nice. Highly recommended.

By Robert B.

I just got back from a trip where I used the Pinnacle Escape 5 mm short sleeve shorty men’s wetsuit. I like it very much. It is easy to get on and off. I do not need someone to help me with a zipper up the back as is the case with most wetsuits. It fits me well. I am 250 lbs, 6’4” tall, 45 inch waist, and 48 inch chest. I ordered the 4XL size and it was the right size. The wetsuit was tall enough for me. I always have a camera with me. I was worried that if the suit was not tall enou...

The Escape Men's 5mm Short Sleeve Front Zipper Shorty is an Extremely versatile part of any diver's thermal protection package. Worn alone, it is an excellent 5mm shorty, suitable to tropical and temperate water diving or pool training. Layered over a jumpsuit of any thickness from a Spandex skin to a 7mm suit, it becomes half of an excellent two-piece suit system. While it is designed to match up to Pinnacle Jumpsuits, it can be used with nearly any one-piece suit of any brand.

The Escape 5mm Suit, is made from 5mm titanium lined nylon 2 neoprene throughout the entire suit. A full-length diagonal front zipper that opens completely at the right thigh and comes with a locking plastic zipper slide to prevent unintended opening. All seams are double glued and blind stitched and with reinforcing stress disks at all seam intersections for added strength and durability. For added durability the suit has an extremely abrasion-resistant exterior lining. This all black Suit is available in wide range of sizes.

Questions & Answers

Questions about this item:

MANNY M  Does the  Pinnacle Escape 5mm Short Sleeve Shorty Men's fit the same as the Pinnacle Spirit 3mm short sleeve Shorty?
PETER S  I only own the 5mm shorty but would assume so. I use it over my 3mil suit for water below 65°. At 65°, I'm hot and have to open the zipper to let cold water in.
Aaron F  Is this stretch material?
LYNN J  Yes this material stretches. I bought this wetsuit for my son who is quite round in the middle. It stretches well and fits him fine.
JOE F  Mine is 3mm neoprene. it stretches the same as any 3mm or 5mm wet-suit would. I am a bit wider than most so I really like the King sizes Pinnacle offers that others do not. In other suits i have to go 3XL or 4XL and they say I should be 6' 7" tall. I wish, but sadly i am not.
MARK C  I believe it is neoprene. If you buy it you can return it if it is not the right size. I LOVE mine..just used it to swim in the Rhode Island Ocean 10/2017.
RYAN R  It is made of standard wet-suit neoprene type material, yes
ART R  Hi Aaron. I'm not quite clear on your question. It is a neoprene suit of course which gives it some stretch. I returned it because the fit wasn't good for me. Obviously I had received it and tried it on so I can vouch for it being as flexible as my other wet suits. Hope I helped.
VINCENT V  The material seems to be fairly normal neoprene.
CARLTON P  What is the positive buoyancy of this wetsuit?
CARLTON D  I had to add another 5 lbs.
JOE F  I wear the King 1 which fits me great. I am short and wide at 5'9" and 275 lbs. I dive with 12 lbs in fresh water, 18 to 20 lbs open ocean and 24 lbs Gulf-side of FL. I do not have to adjust weight based on my shorty vs a rashgard. I would say the buoyancy variation in imperceptible.
PAVEL M  2-3 lb
Shopper  will a 5MM shortie over a 5mm one piece be sufficent exposure protection in 45 degree water?
DREW S  If one normally wears a 5mm step in jacket for the tropics, I personally wouldn't go into 45 degrees without at least a 7mm one piece. I think your arms and legs will get cold by the end of the dive,
AMNON F  I am a divemaster and I use the 5mm (by itself) only in the pool. Personally, I would not do that, or even use a wet suit in 45 degrees. Only dry suit, or at least a semi dry. And if I may add, make sure your regulator is suitable for cold water and will not freeze-up.
JEFF J  I used the Pinnacle over a 4/3 one-piece with 3mm hooded vest for freedive spearfishing in Washington State. Temps here range between 46 in winter and 54 in summer. I wore the Pinnacle in winter and was able to stay in the water for 3 to 4 hours before I got too uncomfortable. I now have a 5mm two-piece open-cell freedive suit so I haven't had to use the Pinnacle recently.
AARON O  For a short period. Probably 20 minutes with hood neoprene gloves and pouring hot water down your suit.
MAYRA R  Yes, only with a hood, and if it us a hoddie one piece shortie.
TODD R  I wear it over a 3mm Marino lined full suite, I've been in 42 degree water it's a little chilly but easily doable
JAMES H  no u should probably look at dry suits
RYAN N  I vote no. Of course it depends on length of time in water, your general tolerance for cold and your tolerance for diving in a goodyear tire (5mm on 5mm is very limiting imo)
Shopper  I need to know what sizes these fit for both men and women. Also, we are wearing these alone and over a 3mm suit. Any idea how to find out what size to purchase?
DON S  I am 5'6 with 31in waist and 150 lbs, 38in chest and size Med per sizing chart was too small except legs and arms.
RYAN T  I wear mine over a 3mill full suit and it fits perfect being one size larger than the other. I am a 6ft male, 240 lbs. My 3 mill full is a 3x and the jackect is 4x.
JEFF J  I googled "pinnacle wetsuit size chart" to determine which size to buy. I am 5'10", 190 pounds, 34" waist, and the large fits fine. During summer I wear a 3mm vest with attached 5mm hood under a 5/4/3 one-piece suit. During winter I add the 5mm step-in vest over the top. Water temp here (Pacific NW) is between 35 and 50 degrees. Without the step-in, I need 9 pounds on the weight belt. When I add the step-in, I need 12 pounds. I've never worn the step-in by itself. The material is very stretchy and easy to put on over the other suit.
