  • High quality, thin wetsuit
Size: Medium Color: Black/Bue
This is a great 2.5mm wet suit. Obviously being 2.5mm, it's very much on the thin side, which makes it suitable for water around 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit. I find the 2.5mm wetsuit more comfortable and easier to get on and off than thicker wetsuits, but you certainly do notice less warming. That said, it really does make a big difference and does a great job keeping the chill off in relatively cool but not cold water. The wet suit is well made, feels durable, and looks great. It definitely matches the genuine Cressi quality that I've come to expect, and would very much recommend it for anyone looking for a thin wetsuit. But do be aware that this wet suit is not insulating enough for water below 60 degrees. ... show more

  • Nice quality
Size: 3X-Large Color: Black/Bue
The material, seams, and closures on this suit look to be really nice quality. I ordered it for kayaking around the local lakes. Sadly, I didn't quite make it into the size range and it seems like the sizing is accurate, so I can't squeeze myself into it. Guess wishful thinking isn't going to make it on this occasion. ... show more

  • A bit on the big side for our 14 year old, but it works and he has room to grow
Size: Small Color: Black/Bue
The small it a bit large on my 14 year old son he 105lbs. But it works alright in the california cost chilly watters. The full bodysuit is a must when you can't handle the cold. The quality of the Cressi is quite nice and feels like it will hold up for some time.

  • Great fit and holds heat well
Size: X-Large Color: Black/Bue
I have multiple wetsuits and Cressi is always the one I feel most comfortable in. The sizing and stretch works well in all areas and I know the quality is always there. I have other suits start to rip at seams and fall apart after a few years of heavy use, but the Cressi is a solid performer every time. ... show more

  • too tight
Size: Small Color: Black/Bue
Too tight around the neck area but ok for the rest. This is for warmer waters as 2.5mm does not produce enough insolation for cold waters

  • Nice suit
Size: Large Color: Black/Bue
I am very happy with this suit. I got it to play with and so far I love it. It is a tight fit(still have a few pounds to lose) but it feels good when it is one. It works great and will have more use as the weather warms up. I have not used others so I am going just off what I have seen with this one. Its possible I am missing out on something but not having a reference point, I feel this is a great start into these! ... show more

  • From Snorkeling to Diving: A Durable, Comfortable, and Stylish Wetsuit
Size: X-Large Color: Black/Bue
I was excited to get my hands on the Cressi Balam 2.5mm Neoprene Wetsuit. It arrived well-packaged, and right away, I was impressed by the quality of the materials. The double-lined neoprene feels sturdy and smooth, and the color combination of black with blue seams is sleek and stylish. The suit fit perfectly – the XL size determined from the sizing chart was spot on. The pre-shaped design hugs your body without feeling constricting, and the strategically placed flex areas allow for a full range of motion. The Velcro neck closure ensures a tight seal, and the strong YKK zipper with under zip lining and a water-stop system minimizes water ingress, making it easy to don and doff the suit. I haven't been able to take it out yet, but I have a trip planned in the next few months. Comparing it to my other suits that have been all over the Pacific Northwest, I have no doubt it will perform flawlessly. The 2.5mm thickness is going to be perfect for temperate waters while still allowing more freedom of movement than thicker suits (yes, I tried it on and wore it around a bit). I believe I have found a happy medium. The X-DIAMOND Pad reinforcement at the shoulders, waist, and calves provides extra protection, and the anti-abrasion knee reinforcements are a welcome addition for anyone who likes to explore rocky areas or avoid stinging sea life. Overall, this wetsuit is excellent. It's well-made, fits like a comfortable second skin, and offers great protection and warmth when things start cooling down. The price is reasonable for the quality you get, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable wetsuit for diving or snorkeling in temperate waters. --- Product: Cressi 2.5 mm Neoprene Wetsuit for Scuba Diving and Snorkeling in Temperate Waters - Balam Man - Designed in Italy (X-Large, Black/Blue) ASIN: B0DDMM4DQJ ... show more

  • Well made, perfect thickness....I wish it fit.
Size: Large Color: Black/Bue
This may well be a five start suit. Everything about it was just what I was looking for in a thinner suit - flat seams, solid sippers, uniform thickness, re-inforced knees, long line zipper pull and respected name with tastefull logo. That said, I am 34/36 in jeans and a 48L in coats. So I understood the legs would be a bit short wearing the "Large" but the chest was supposed to go to 52 based on the chart. I fit just like I wanted in the bottom half but no amount of wriggling, hoping, and hope was going to get me into the top half. I was just way to small in the chest/shoulders and arms. I hesitate to guess bet trying to get into made me feel like the top was no larger than a Medium and on the small side of that. I wanted to exchange but there was no option so I will send it back sadly. ... show more
