Questions & Answers

Shopper : I am a short adult (5') but also a bit busty for my size. I am looking at purchasing the size 12 but am worried the suit does not take into account bust. Any help?KENNETH P : You will want to go a size bigger. It will most likely not fit you. I bought it for my 12 year old and he is already going to need another one.LISA A : It's shaped for kids, so not much room for curves! My niece is 5"3", just about 100# and it's too snug for her to wear anymore. She's not curvy- tall and slim. She tried on a size 4 women's suit which was short but was cut to fit a fuller chest/hips. (She ended up in a size 8 womens with room to grow into the hips and chest!)KEVIN F : It is a unisex junior size. It is not designed with adult features in mind.RICHARD S : I think it's a valid concern. I bought the suit for my son and it fit him well. Meaning possibly no room for breasts. Enter an answer to this question.
JO ANN B : I am looking at the above wetsuit to buy. I'm buying it for myself. I'm an adult. Just under 5' tall. I have a women's hyper stretch 3 mm in size 6, but it isn't warm enough. How does thermoprene compare to hyper stretch? I'm chubby, but the hyper stretch works fine. I'm looking at a size 16 in the junior. Do you think that might work? Jo AnnBARTON Z : Thermoprene and hyperstrech are just names of different styles of neoprene. Going to a 5 mil instead of a 3 is going to keep you warmer. Or you could get a vest to wear under or over your 3 mil.Steve S : The size depends on the rest of your measurements. The Thermoprene though is a coating on the inside of the suit that helps keep you even warmer than a standard 5mm suit.MICHAEL C : I purchased this wetsuit for my daughter, who was 10 years old at the time. There is no denying that Henderson Thermoprene is great product. You do, however, pay a significant premium for it. That said, my son, now 6, is looking forward to the hand-me-down.GRACE L : Bought this wetsuit for one of my daughters. She likes it. She used to wear a 3mm full with a 3mm shorty prior to this wetsuit. It will fit tighter and feel stiffer bec not hyperstretch. I would try a shorty over the 3 ml myself. I personally own a hyperstretch and have used a shorty over my own hendersen.
brenna r : Does this fit both guys and girls?ROSE Z : Yes, it would fit both girls and boys. It is a junior size, so if you're an petite woman, it would only fit, if you're small, and not very curvy.YAN G : Yes, it is unisex.RICHARD S : Yes at that age I would say fine for girls or boys.
Shopper : Anyone has an estimation on the chest measurement for a size 16?Monica s : The measurement is approximately 16.75 inches for the chest measurement.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?THOMAS C : Henderson wetsuits are the best for construction, warmth, looks, and fit. The 5mm is great for diving in the water off of Florida during the winter months and all of the springs and grottos.JOHN S : chose for thickness and sizePAULA H : Wanted a 5mm suit for my daughter, who loves scuba diving.JOSEPH R : Henderson is a great brand that we have used many times. High quality and one of the few companies to make youth sized wetsuits of high quality.KRISTINE K : Bought for granddaughter who will get certified soonMICHAEL R : 5mm thickness for west coast surfingAUGUSTIN P : brand quality

6'0" 245lbs fits fine 60F water, I was warm.

60°F water. I was warm and the material made this wetsuit easy to donn and doff. May just be me but I had to add a short section of shoestring to the zipper line in the back as it was a little short for me to grab and pull around my back but I'm a little large so might be my body type. 6'0" 245lbs.

Stitching coming undone.

i'm 6ft tall skinny. ordered the medium tall. fits great. stitching near the hips are coming undone just a little bit. i've only done 6 dives so far. henderson does have a warranty so if it begins to fall apart i will reach out to them. 5 stars otherwise.

Solid

Great for the price, however some of the seams are a bit rough and scratch the skin after prolonged use. Could wear an undershirt and limit it a bit though

Junk, do not buy

15 dives and I have a relatively large 3" to 4" hole on the backside of the crotch. I expected quality and this wasn't it.

Great wetsuit in short length

Just got home from diving in Key Largo. The suit worked great. I was worried about the tightness in the neck but it did not bother me underwater. The person who helped me choose size did a great job. I'm 5'3", weigh 139 pounds and the 10short fit me well. I returned the 12S because it was too large and actually haven't had time to check to see if they credited my credit card yet. It's very plain, but worked well.

Everything as promised and more.....

We ordered the Henderson youth wetsuit for our soon to be 13-year-old to get ready for a trip to Bonaire in March 2023. While he has a 3mm wetsuit already, we wanted him to be comfortable as the dives progressed and to ensure that he stays warm. The website was easy to navigate, and had all of the information that we needed to make the selection without having to worry about digging for information. The offered price was just as good or better than any other websites out there. While the wetsuit was not in stock when ordered, when we called the customer service folks followed up and let us know that the wetsuit would be drop shipping directly from Henderson. No more than 2 days later we receive the wetsuit as promised. There were no sizing issues, and we look forward to using the wetsuit in Bonaire in 3 weeks!!

Great suit

Great suit and great fit. I have a small waist and often find it difficult to find a wetsuit that doesn't gap. This is the one! Highly recommend for all the ladies with small waists and curvier hips/thighs.

Great Wetsuit! Please Be Sure To Add Additional Weight When Diving

Wetsuit is great. However, I failed to consider the effect a new wetsuit has the weight I needed to dive with. I am 190 lbs and with a 2/3 wetsuit I typically dive comfortably with 6 to 8 lbs. With this new suit, I had to add an additional 8 lbs!

Great Suit

I tried several 3mm suits. Needed one to dive on wrecks in Key Largo in February. This one fit me the best. The arms were a little loose; but, I wore a rash guard under it and was never cold all the way down to 130'.

Great wetsuit, great price, perfect fit

This is a great wetsuit at a great price. My older son and I have Henderson wet suits but the dive shop here does not carry junior sizes for my 12 year old. We ordered using the size chart and the fit is perfect. The price is reasonable enough to invest in over renting, even knowing my 12 year old is going to outgrow it eventually. Especially since it is a 5 mm and rentals are only 3mm.

Fairly happy with it

It fit quite well. The only problem is the arm pits seem a bit high cut. And the neck is a little bit tight but I think I can cut away some of that.

Good suit , well made and comfortable all day.

The only problem I have with it is cold water leaks in through the zip. If it was made with a 10 mm spine pad there would be less leakage.

Great wetsuit

By snupa

This is a great suit. I'm 6'4 190lbs and got a Large Tall that fits me really well. Used it a couple of times in colder waters and worked out great. However, I would not recommend this for longer periods when diving below 70F.

Great for plus size ladies.

By Nicole B.

I'm reviewing this before I've worn it in the water so this is just to help with sizing. I wear a size 14 clothing. I'm between the W1 and W2 sizes. My bust and hips fit W2 but waist W1. I went with the smaller size because I couldnt find a reaaonably prices W2 and after reading reviews saying it was very stretchy. I'm glad I did. It's snug the way it should be without any gapping. I have large arms so I worried about that but the sleeves fit just fine. My bust is larger than the size chart b...

Divers seeking a great value will appreciate Thermoprene's balance of performance and price. The material combination delivers greater flexibility and improved features not found in standard neoprene wetsuits, yet at a reasonable cost, perfect for the cost-conscious buyer. Thermoprene is crafted from a high-quality neoprene and a low pill fabric. It has 75% more stretch than standard neoprene, so while it is not as flexible as Henderson's Thermoprene Pro or TherMAXX lines of products, it still boasts significant comfort characteristics. The 180% stretch Thermoprene is noticeably easy to don, pulling over the shoulders and around the torso with less huff and puff than standard wetsuits. Also, the fabric's exterior stands up extremely well to the wear of BC straps and weight belts with its pill/abrasion-resistant exterior laminate.

This 5mm suit is made with uncompromising quality. The suits have seams that are glued and sewn, which seals off stitched areas and drastically reduces water entry. In the full-length jumpsuits, there is a self-sealing spine pad over the zipper to further limit water exchange and to help ease the discomfort of dive tanks. Down below, Freedom Flex kneepads provide a super-tough exterior with great mobility. Each Henderson wetsuit benefits from five decades of design experience. The Thermoprene cut allows for an optimal fit while visually enhancing the diver's physique. Creature comforts include Spandex trimmed cuffs, a spine pad, adjustable collar and leg zippers. Suit has a durable back zipper with zipper tab leash for easy donning and doffing. Suit is black/blue in color and available in multiple sizes.
