Henderson 3mm Aqualock Men's Full Wetsuit X-Small

2025-05-19T10:32:38

Warm suit; dries quickly except for wrists and ankles. It is my experience that the suit does not lock with the Aqualock boots: lots of water enters the boots even though worn as instructed. Otherwise would give the suit 5 stars. I like Henderson because the suits come in a short length. To avoid difficulty putting on the suit, spraying the inside of the arms and legs w/baby shampoo defog works great!

Best wetsuit I've ever used. The warmth is incredible. I am 5'6" and I bought this wetsuit because Henderson offers a Medium-Short sizing. The suit dries very quickly - a plus for travel! I always recommend Henderson wetsuits to friends.

The best suit I've ever owned. The quick dry feature is the gold stand for those that hate cold, crawling back into a cold wetsuit on a cool , windy day. Henderson quality means it will last years

The suit is thicker than a typical 3 mil, due to the new fuzzy lining. I also believe it is warmer than the typical 3 mil, it seems as warm as my 5 mil Thermaxx Pro suit. The lining does shed water quickly, so it does dry (on the inside) pretty quickly, as advertised. The suit is very stretchy, which is good because it was a bit small when compared to my Henderson 5 mil in the same size. The arms were about 3/4 inch shorter. I did about 40 dives in it and it has not stretched out noticeably. It is hard to get off because it does not slide against your skin, you have to peel it and pull yourself out of it. Not sure if it is worth the extra money as the Thermaxx Pro was my first choice but was not in stock. The build quality is excellent for both suits.

Excellent wetsuit, I am very thin and have hard time finding ones that fit right. I'm 5'8" and 120 lbs, the XS fits great and is very warm, especially with the inside lining!

I will buy nothing but the Aqualock wetsuits anymore. These are warmer than the same thickness of other suits. I have two Henderson 5mm suits. One Aqualock and one regular. The regular suit I get cold in. The Aqualock is much warmer. Highly recommend these suits. You absolutely will not regret it.

I am 5?1? and 105 pounds. The 6S seems to fit well. If I turn the suit inside out it will dry over night and be easier to put on the next day. It is a bit difficult to put on when wet. I notice it does take a while to completely dry for packing, since the wrists and ankles can stay wet for a few days. I had another Henderson Aqua Lock 5 ml but a size 8S. Between me losing a bit of weight and it stretching out , the legs became very lose after about three years use. I now have about 500 hours of diving in this 6S suit and I am noticing the legs are getting lose too, but not to the extent the 8S did, probably because the 6S is now a better fit for me. I wear this suit in waters 80 to 88 degrees and it keeps me warm. It do tend to chill easily. I wear a 7 ml in water 70 to 78 degrees F.

I bought two of these for warm water diving. Used it for the first time on the 135? Blue Hole dive. Performed perfectly. Thought it might be hard to don but used plastic grocery bags on feet and hands and it was a breeze!

I like it very much I was diving a "dry" suit before and was not so satisfied with it.

I totally love this suit. However, the wrist gaskets are so tight, my hands started going numb when kiteboarding. I had to cut the inner gasket out. I own a 5m and a 7m. Had to do the same on both suits. Other than that, definitely the best suit I have ever owned. If they ever wear out, I will get another one.

Love this wetsuit. Dries fast, very light, easily folds up. Definitely recommend.

For me, this is the most comfortable 7mm wetsuit I've ever owned. Ive owned custom wetsuits before, but this is so stretchy that, it fits without a custom fit. i can easily get in and out of it. If you store it hanging, be sure to hang it up with a quality wetsuit hanger.

It’s not completely quick dry, the part at your ankles and wrists are rubber and take a long time to dry.

I bought this wet suit to use on a dive vacation and it performed well. The quick dry claim is mostly true. The wrist and ankle openings can take a few hours to dry completely as gravity pulls any moisture to those areas when the suit is hung to dry. I simply pressed those areas with a dry towel to wick away the moisture and it was dry within hours. I had 24 hours between my last dive and my flight and the suit was bone dry when I packed it for the return trip home. The ankle, wrist, and neck openings kept the water out and the suit was comfortable, flexible, and easy to get into when dry and easy to get out of when wet. Getting into the suit was relatively easy too but required some pulling on the ankle and wrist openings after the surface interval. I was hesitant to purchase a suit online but the fitting guide provided was spot on for my physical profile. I best thing I can say is that if I had the option to buy it again, I would without hesitation.
