Questions & Answers

BARRY A B : Is this suit to heavy for snorkling, no diving??darrick c : Hello Barry, you would be able to use this suit in any type of water sport function.ROBERTO P : I don't quite understand your question, but it's not a heavy suit for diving, it's 3 mm thick, it gives warmth on long dives, even though it's very warm water, it's not heavy to wear on airlines, it's also good for swimming, since it is very elastic, very good qualityROBERTO P : I don't quite understand your question, but it's not a heavy suit for diving, it's 3 mm thick, it gives warmth on long dives, even though it's very warm water, it's not heavy to wear on airlines, it's also good for swimming, since it is very elastic, very good quality
Robert F : Your size chart for the shorty (mens) suggests I am an Medium Large but your available sizes only offers a "Medium" or "Large"  - which one is right for me.  Height 5'8"; weight: 175Lb; waist: 33"?Mario C : Hi Robert, Henderson size chart is a single one for their entire line. Not all suits are made on all sizes. only full sizes from XS to 6XL, (no short./tall or ML made. )
Alf Martin H : Does it have adjustable neck collar? Description says so, but can't see on pictures..JOEL N : The neck collar is not adjustable, but, above the main body of the suit is a soft 2 inch collar that effectively seals the neckline of the suit in a very comfortable way. While there is no user adjustment, as a big guy with a remarkably small neck size for someone my size, I have found it very comfortable with no discomfort or perception of water leakage around the neckline (or anywhere else).DREW S : If stretchable counts as a adjustable then it is if not it's not. It is an extremely comfortable 3 millimeter shorty wetsuit. Much more than a standard neoprene that they sell. I bought it to be able to do the backstroke in a swimming pool and I can easily accomplish that.Raja M : Not sure what they mean by adjustable. It’s is standard zip up to the neck. Nothing to adjust.ROBERTO P : This shorty that has a front zip does not have an adjustable neck, although the neck is tall it is not adjustable.
LARRY MICHAEL L : In the picture it looks like the zipper is full length. Is that true?John S : It's an excellent suit, easy in and out, yes the zipper is full length from the neck to the left leg (front zip)...step in your right leg and right arm, then start the zipper from your left leg up to your neck...excellent suit typical for HendersonBRIAN P : Yes, it is a full length zipper. I find it very easy to put on with the full zipper. Great feature!DREW S : yes.. it zips all the way down & is quite easy to put on.. very comfortable in the shoulders.. it's definitely worth the extra money for the "pro" versionBRAD C : The zipper is full length. Very easy to put on. It may let a little more water in than a back zip but I wouldn't go back. Plenty warm in tropical waters for me and if I need more its really easy to put on over the top of my 3mm full.DOUGLAS J : Yes. The zipper is full length and the suit is a breeze to get in and out of.Michael F : It is full lengthA K : The zipper is full length. It will completely unzip. The zipper on mine is very sturdy and smooth.Stephen B : Yes, it’s very convenient as I wore it on a rocking boat. Simply put your right leg in and then sit down and fasten the zipper around your left leg. When it’s time to stand up you get up and pull the zipper the rest of the way, get rigged up and go. It is the easiest zipper on a wet suit that I’ve used so far.ROBERTO P : Yes, that's right, it's a shorty easy to put on and remove, very comfortable and elastic, a quality garmentRaja M : Yes it is. All through the front of the thigh.
Shopper : Is this their latest version?KEVIN F : yes

Love this front zip Henderson Pro Shorty

I swim year round in an unheated pool. I am 5'10" & 160 lbs. I usually I wear a Henderson large as I am kind of big in the chest for my weight, but wanted to try this pro shorty in medium because the pro's are so flexible. When I first put it on dry, it felt too tight in the chest. In the water, it loosened up & fit me perfectly. Very flexible suit, easy to get on & off. Very little water went down my back with this medium and it's perfect fit. Have used 3 times so far, temperatures were 70 deg, 72 and 76 deg. Used a skin on top as well as hood, gloves and booties. I swim quite a bit non stop to get warmed up. Love the front zip! By myself I can make the medium work as I am able to pull the zipper together as I am pulling the zipper up. Not sure why anyone would want the back zip version, no way I could get a back zip (medium or large) zipper up without help. Looking forward to more uses of this excellent "spring" suit.

Same as above, sensational find.

Ordered the 3 mil shorty suit to take the chill out of early morning pool swims. Exceeded expectations. The thermoprene offers great flexibility of movement and provides adequate warmth. True to size ( small ) and I was most impressed with the heavy duty stitching and seam bonds. In fact, as a 78 year old male weighing in at 130 pounds, I am astounded this is not a custom suit. Stay fit!

Satisfied Customer

I do some business travel and I like to utilize the pools where I stay for lap swimming. In the past couple of years it seems to me that as energy costs have increased, the water temperatures have decreased. I wanted a wetsuit to help with my core temperature and after a good deal of research, I decided to purchase the Henderson Thermoprene 3mm Pro Men's Shorty with a front zip. This is my first wetsuit and I chose Henderson because of their reputation for quality and customer satisfaction. Overall, it fits snug as it should in all the right places. I chose the Pro line because it has more stretch and in my opinion, it is not restrictive to my arms and legs. I decided on the front zip because of the convenience of donning and doffing. This wetsuit performs well and I am very satisfied with it. I would highly recommend it.

Henderson?Äôs shorty wetsuit

I?Äôve only tried on the wetsuit, however it seems to be made well and the material feels to be of good quality. I like having the zipper in the front because of having arthritis in my shoulders. I?Äôm exchanging the suit for a smaller size,just getting the next size down. The exchange process was painless

Very nice.

I?m 5? 9? , 175 and got the small. I wear a thin layer of merino under it because I don?t like the feel of neoprene next to my skin. It fits well. Very easy to move and swim in.

Disappointing n shorty

I dove with the shorty in Roatan for a week. It fell apart at the zipper, inside patches and some seams. It was comfortable but not designed for longevity. Leisure Pro however was great. Took the shorty back and issued a refund. Leisure Pro is by far the best place to get gear.

Comfortable, easy on and off suit.

Very comfortable suit. I put it on and then forget I’m wearing it during a dive. I wear it primarily in the Caribbean with a reef/sun shirt underneath and the temperature is spot on. Very easy to get on and off on rocking boat adventures as I can put one leg through and do the rest sitting down. I’m very satisfied and I recommend this suit.

Very elastic and comfortable

It's been a while since I've found this brand (Henderson) as one of the best in diving suits with Bare. Being the first one a little bit cheaper with a very good standard of quality. And this model Thermoprene Pro is not the exception, it is an excellent diving suit that by its design is very easy to put on and take off, comfortable in the water, fast drying and especially this model is very elastic as its advertising explains, superior to the standard or the common. Yes, it is more expensive, but its price is worth it in comfort during use, it is a highly recommended product.

Henderson 3mm Mens Thermoprene Pro Front Zip Shorty Wetsuit Review - Scuba Gear Reviews

Henderson wetsuits are an excellent product that are well made and fitted. The best in the industry. The lining and seam sealing are great. This is the 4th Henderson wetsuit I have had over the years. Excellent response on ordering and shipping by Scuba.com. Highly recommended.

Excellent wetsuit. Great mobility

I was definitely concerned if it was worth the extra price from a standard neoprene wetsuit.. I feel the quality of the Henderson wetsuit would be difficult to beat. Suit is extremely flexible and I use it in the winter time to swim in a heated pool. It does not restrict my swimming motion doing the breast stroke

Nice wetsuit. Good quality and easy on and off. Wore it In Caribbean for a week and performed perfect.

The Thermoprene Pro the next generation of Henderson's ultra-popular Thermoprene wetsuit line that delivers quality and performance a step above the rest. A fantastic value, Thermoprene is ideal for budget-minded divers who want the best in materials, design and construction. Significant improvements in comfort and flexibility will be one of the most noticeable enhancements found in the new Thermoprene Pro line. Thermoprene is crafted from a high-quality neoprene that has 250% stretch a significant improvement over the 180% stretch of the original Thermoprene. The new material "melts" in your hands and contours every curve of your body.

This increased stretch significantly improves diver comfort by making Thermoprene suits noticeably more flexible than the competition. Thermoprene is also easier to get into, pulling over the shoulders and around the torso with less huff and puff than standard wetsuits. And, the fabric's exterior stands up extremely well to friction, meaning it won't show undue wear from BC straps and weight belts. New patterns which have been developed using fitting data from Henderson's pattern library which contains over five decades of USA grading and patterning knowledge.

Get the features and design benefits of more expensive suits in this economically priced shorty ideal for local waters and exotic destinations. The Thermoprene Pro Shorty effectiveness is based on a contoured fit that helps keeps water exchange to a minimum combined with a superior grade of neoprene for maximum heat retention. All seams are double-glued and blind stitched which further prevents water seepage and extends suit life. Creature comforts include Lycra trimmed cuffs. Suit has a #10-YKK front zipper for easy donning and doffing. Suit is available in multiple sizes, and is black in color.
