"I was looking for a decent wetsuit without breaking the bank. This more than fit the bill."Stuartap
Quality of Construction
So far so good.
Fit
Fits me very well. As a former competitive swimmer fit is important. I don't feel overly constricted. I have had wetsuits in the past that I would rather brave the cold than swim it. Not the case here.
Comfort
I say 'Good' because given a choice I would rather not wear one. When the temps demand it this one is better than most, but still not as comfortable as no wetsuit.
Adjustability
For people who don't have a lot of experience with wetsuits you need to be able to move around in them a bit. Adjusting the sleeves and legs, neck area will make a big difference in how it feels to wear for over an hour.
Durability
Looks to be OK, no issues.
Value
With the BT discount, great buy!
Appearance
It can only look as good as the body its on but even on me it looks good.
Customer Service
Ordered it online, communication was good, arrived promptly so great in my book.
Performance
Once I got it to where I wanted it on my body it was good. Only time I had an issue was in 47 degree water. Too cold to be in there at all.
Strengths
Good value, easier than a lot to swim in.
Weakness
None so far

Ease of use
The first time getting it on was a pain but after looking online for a few tips, no problem. It fits me well and after a few swims feels very comfortable.
