Cressi Skin 1mm Suit Small Black/Silver

2025-02-24T08:50:36

I'm 6' 130 lbs with long arms and long legs, so womens suits just won't do the job; I needed the unisex to get the length. Could have done the 1x; but got the 2x in case my husband ever wants to use it. He's 6'4 and 160 and it will work for him. I was really quite happy with the fit. Florida Keys in January. I wanted something more than my swimsuit for 6 days outside in sun, wind, 68 degree water and 68 degree air. With this, I only needed sunscreen on my face and feet. Snorkeled one afternoon and I encountered a portuguese man of war... which only stung my hand and not my entire arm as it wrapped around me. I'd say this suit paid for itself thrice over. Once for a very light - but much welcome layer in cool air, twice for the sun protection, and a third time against the man-o-war. If I never use it again, it was well worth; but I expect it will get out more. one complaint: if the zipper were longer it would be easier to get over the shoulders and off.

My Cressi 1 mm suit is perfect. The zipper works well, no sticking and the fit is just right.

This dive skin was perfect under a wetsuit in the Galapagos. Very comfortable and easy to rinse out and dry each day.

Bought five for a family snorkeling trip to Roatan. Worked great. The pink suits are cut for females and the other colors are all cut for males. We returned a yellow and swapped for a pink which fit my daughter much better. We were all very pleased and recommend.

Only one complaint. No fly shield to keep the zipper away from your skin.

Just finished a week diving in Cozumel. Water temperature 84 degrees. It was perfect and protected me from sun and the reef from sun block. Perfect.

I love my Cressida wetskins(I now have 6). I,m a distance swimmer and they do a great job protecting me from the sun. The fit is awesome. They are the only skins that fit for my long arms and legs because they are unisex and the only ones I can find in xs. Please get the black/ yellow and black/grey and I will buy 6 more.

this skin suit is not quite what i was expecting, the "1mm" is a bit misleading: this is not a neoprene suit, its just thin spandex, and the material is a fair bit less than 1mm. the other bit of this is the suit is freakishly long. the last bit is the zipper, while of good quality, maybe too thick for a spandex suit: not the thin mesh type but the thick molded zipper bit type, it rubs when i walk around that i think it may result in swim rash as there's nothing protecting the hard bit from rubbing your chest all day.

easy to get into-makes getting into wetsuit a breeze while providing extra warmth for winter surfing. good quality and service

Nice and thin as a protective layer against jellyfish I’m the summer!

It fits well and is perfect for what I wanted it for. I may even wear it snorkeling in Bonaire to avoid sunburn. My only complaint is that it is a bit difficult to get off my shoulders. I just not as agile as I used to be!

Perfect protection for a warm water dive where a 3mm wetsuit would be overkill. Nice fit, good quality, incredible price!

Maybe 20 dives. And deterioration. Garbage.

Was very happy with the product. Would have like the arms and legs longer but I’m freakishly tall for someone who wears a medium! ??

Great for wind and sun exposure and mild temperature water. It made snorkeling in Belize really enjoyable!

VERY happy with this suit. It is durable, well stitched, well priced, and it fits like a glove!!

Fits a tall thin person very well, fairly easy to don/doff once you get the hang of its stretchy form, comfortable to wear. As an undersuit for a 7mm wetsuit, worked great.

Generally pleased for a little bit of extra warmth until 7 mm and helps slide on the thick wetsuit over this Cressi. the only thing that is not ideal is the location of the zipper on the neck; it's a bit uncomfortable. However, I've done 6 dives so far and it stayed just umcomfy, so I can live with that.

This dive akin is awesome! It’s thin, form-fitting, really stretchy, and very soft. Has a compression fit look, without the suffocating feeling. Really feels like a second layer of skin. This will be my go to suit for diving in the Caribbean over my neoprene dive suit for sure. 5’8, male, 160lbs...went with a size Medium and it fits perfectly. One con is that the zipper should have been lower to to make putting on and taking off the sleeves easier.

I bought this when it started getting cooler out and I still wanted to ride my jet ski. It was great. It fit great and looked good too.

Great skin for the money. It was a little tight at first for the size but stretched when it got wet and was nice.
