The wetsuite
Rating: 3 out of 5
The wetsuite is good quality no doubt about that its just the sizing is out my son is with the hieght guided a tall skinny bean pole the wetsuite fits his arms and body fine but is 2" short on the legs and will require wetsuite boots to cover the missing couple of inches and when combined with flippers causes more drag then propulsion were holidaying in cornwall this year not Caribbean waters so hes going to get cold feet if i chose the xxl for him it would be like wearing a tent around his body and dangerous with air pockets so please consider this people are getting taller nowadays

Qualiteeee
Rating: 5 out of 5
Now I'm no expert, buuuut. Fits great, seems to be good quality, and a dip in the river fowey for half an hour and I was toasty. Great value for money, I'd definitely consider other Osprey products based on this purchase.
Poor quality
Rating: 1 out of 5
Faulty on arrival- big rip at the seam on the left arm. This was my second purchase of the same item. The first was far too small, the size guide is nowhere near accurate.
Advertised sizing is way off

Advertised sizing is way off. Go two sizes up and you might get lucky.

Great value wetsuit
Rating: 4 out of 5
Great value and well made wetsuit, delivery was very fast. I did have to return the large size I ordered and re ordered an XL, which fits well. The return was simple and swift, but I suggest ordering a size above your normal one.
Quality product but.

Ordered a size up, arrived a little later but not a problem perfect fit. Just a tiny nick in the chest area, but overall better than some I've tried on, overall happy with the suit would given 5 stars if not for that small defect, would definitely shop again and recommend to anyone

Sizing is correct as detailed on the measurements table. Don't use clothing sizes as a comparison. I'm a L for clothing normally but needed a 2XL wetsuit.

Love my new suit ♥️
Rating: 5 out of 5
Excellent value for money. The quality of the product is great, and the 4-5mm suit kept me very warm in the Scottish North Sea. I'm more than happy with my suit.

Wetsuit Review: Solid Performance at a Great Price
Rating: 5 out of 5
I initially didn't have high expectations for this wetsuit, given its budget-friendly price and its design more geared towards surface sports. However, after using it on five dives in the Red Sea (Sharm el Sheikh), with water temperatures around 21°C, I was pleasantly surprised by its performance.
The suit was easy to put on, even on a boat, and I could manage it solo without assistance. The fit was perfect for me (Size M, 39-inch chest, 168cm height), and it looked good too. After the initial flush of water, the suit warmed up quickly, and while I would have preferred slightly tighter cuffs at depth, the limitations of a £50 wetsuit are understandable.
For dives that reached depths of 27m and lasted 55+ minutes, I stayed comfortable for around 25-30 minutes, with performance comparable to my dive buddy in a Scubapro 5mm wetsuit. The suit provided adequate thermal protection for recreational depths, making it a solid alternative to more expensive options.
There are a couple of areas to consider: the zip does allow some water to seep in, and occasionally, it can come undone. To avoid this, make sure to zip it all the way up, then secure the Velcro strap and pull the string over it. The neck also lets in some water, which can make you feel colder, so a hooded vest would be a useful addition.
In conclusion, this wetsuit has exceeded my expectations for scuba diving, especially at the recreational depth range. While it may not last as long as a more expensive scuba-specific wetsuit, it performs admirably for the price, and I would definitely recommend it for casual divers.

Zipper

The zipper has come off already which is sad as the fit was perfect. I have sent an email to the team to see if they can help.
