Questions & Answers

REGIS W : on Henderson website they say it comes in a size LS? Is that true ?darrick c : Hello Regis, no, the step-in jackets and shorty suits only come in standard sizing, they do not come in a short or tall version.
Joseph R : how do I order a XL Short?Mario C : This suit is not made in short and tall sizes. The size chart shows all available Henderson sizes.
Shopper : Hi, My husband is 6'3" 220lbs 50" chest and 9" rise. His legs are medium width. What size would you recommend? This would be a bday gift for him. His bday is July 1. Can you also tell me how long it would take to get to Huntington, NY Long Island?ROBERTO P : A clarification, if you want your husband to be even more comfortable, I recommend buying the Shorty Henderson Thermoprene 3mm Pro for men (front zipper), although it is a little more expensive but it is of better construction quality, much more comfortable than the model anterior and is more elastic, a noticeably better product, always in size XXL. CheersROBERTO P : Hello, so that your husband is comfortable in the water I would recommend a size XXL, my size is similar to his, only a little lower, and the XXL suits me very well.
STEVEN T : I am 5'10", chest 42, waist 34, weight 185. Would ML or L be best fit? ThanksMICHAEL S : I'm 6'3 220 and the Large fits a little snugly but not uncomfortablyRUTH B : MediumRANDALL F : Steve, I got your back. I go for the Large. I'm 62 years old… And trust me, over the next couple of decades, you will gain a couple of pounds. So stay on the safe and practical side of life… And get that Large, Henderson Thermoprene 3mm Men's Shorty. If you are one of the few ones that don't gain… Nothing says comfort than a little room between you and the water. I hope my input has been helpful. So go soak your head and enjoy your swim. Your sea quantic acquaintance Randall Flann.RUSS B : Hello Steven, I’m very happy with this shorty. I think the suits run a tad small. I’m 5 pounds heavier than you but about the same height w/36” waist. I ordered the XL and it’s a bit big but very usable. You’d probably be fine in a Large but the ML might be snug. Good luck, RussLONNIE R : You're an in between - ML may fit your torso better but could be a little snug up top - L might fit better overall but could be a little loose in the waist - I'd probably go with the ML
George A : i am 5'6 and have 41 chest but my weight is 184 what size should i get for henderson front zipper shorty wetsuit?YAN G : Chest and waist measurements are more important than weight. I would try Large.

Great shorty.

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.

Great wet suit, reasonably priced.

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.

Great product

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.

Best investment at staying warm in cold waters.

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.

Does the job.

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.

Good wetsuit. Get correct size.

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.

About Henderson Thermoprene Shorty

FEATURED REVIEWS

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.
