Very happy with the fit and quality of this shorty. Used it for about 20 dives over a week on Curaçao (27°C water) and it was ideal. The front-zip design makes it easy on/off.

Absolutely love it! Just used it for snorkeling in high seventies tropical waters. After 30 minutes, my friends were complaining they were cold. I wasn't? And the darn thing fit me perfectly, which was surprising.

Fits well. Does the job. Son wore it white water rafting last weekend. Also had a semi-dri thermoprene that I outgrew and gave to dive shop for use as a rental for in between water temp. Now have a 5MM Greenpreene

I'm very pleased with my Henderson wet suit. It fits great and with the zipper on the front is very easy to put on and take off. I'm an instructor, so I use it in the pool, it keeps me warm and comfortable. AND since it zips up the front, I can go to the men's room without having to take it off.

Got this for my husband’s birthday prior to a scuba trip in Mexico. My husband found it to be of high quality and very comfortable.

This worked out great for lake swimming! Comfortable for a long swim doing crawl stroke. Kept me warm in summer time lake water .

Great suit. Fits like a glove. I am 6’1 and 160 (aka, tall and thin), so this was a concern. But it works quite well. First time with wetsuit. Felt like I was cheating in my swim with all the buoyancy it provided. Summer now, so warmth not an issue. Will see how far into Fall I get.

I purchased my Henderson Thermoprene - 3mm shorty front zip for a Class V white water adventure in 40 degree water temperature. It didn't take long for me to meet "Old Man River" in the first 12 minutes and did a hard swim until being fished out of the water. This suit kept my mid-body temperature warm while the rest of my body-parts experienced contact with "melted snow" type raging water. This is a great item to wear under a splash jacket and pants during those cold water outings. Not to mention a great suit for nice weather combined with cold water temperatures. Best of all, it is very easy to put on and take off. Best investment and a great price.

Great fit out of the water. I have yet to use this wet suit but I look forward to the warmer temperatures and some great diving this summer!

Easiest suit to get on and off. Feels comfortable and zipper doesn't feel in the way when surfing. Very comfortable and non-restricting.

Perfect if all you need is minimal exposure protection. Not nearly as heavy as another 3mm I have but doesn’t require much lead either. Fit as expected.

Henderson is the outer wear standard; I always trust Henderson to fit well & ge very durable!

Great for warm water diving. Also goes nicely under my 7 mil for extra warmth when diving cold water lakes and quarries. Love the front zip...but takes a plan to get out of it.

Good wetsuit. Sizing chart said 2XL-SHORT. LP only carries the standard size so I bought 2xl. When I tried it on dry it felt okay. After 3 dives it felt too large. Now I can't return it, and I probably won't wear it. The wetsuit is good quality, just be sure you get the correct size, and allow for wet/dry difference. Don't settle for less. It's not a consumable product.

A suit with curves
By Babs D.
Finally a shorty that is made for ladies, including those with curves. The size 14 fit perfectly: I am a very curvy (both on top and bottom - size 16/18 @ 5'8") female. Ideal for those who hate the "boy style" shorty complete with thigh zip. The rear zipper begins in the small of the back like most full length suits.
LOVE IT!
By Moon2luna
I started looking at wetsuits and quickly realized that companies all have different ideas of sizing, and that many companies offer a small variety of sizes. I took my measurements (waist, hips, arms, thighs, etc.) and compared them to the size charts, and only Henderson had my size and the option to choose long or short. I didn't care for the purple and blue cut, but size was more important to me. Boy, was I wrong! When I put it on, it made me look much more slender, without squeezing, pull...

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 3mm Shorty is made with uncompromising quality. The Shorty has seams that are glued and sewn, which seals off stitched areas and drastically reduces water entry. Front #10 YKK zipper w/ comfort seal to further limit water exchange. 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 Lycra trimmed cuffs. Flexibility, comfort and core warmth are all hallmarks of the Thermoprene Shorty, which is now available in an easy-entry, front-zip design. Wear it alone to prolong your dives in tropical waters or pair it up with a jumpsuit to increase core warmth in more temperate waters. The heavy-duty front zipper makes getting into this shorty easy on the joints and layers seamlessly with back-zip suits or full-length john. Suit is black/blue in color and available in multiple sizes.
