Great wetsuit for the price. Perfect for 75-80 degree water not quite warm enough for a shortie.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

I've had no problems pulling it on and off. The product sizing runs just a little tight. [...]. The zipper unzips easy but zipping up I need help. That is a very small issue. If you spend more money on a 3MM suit, you've been had. Happy diving! :)

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

Consult the Akona sizing chart before ordering. I found the chart to be true to sizing. I use this suit professionally all winter with an arctic hooded vest. I selected it primarily because I need the ease of movement that a 3mm suit provides in order to perform heavy underwater work. I would prefer a brass zipper, as the nylon gets brittle and is subject to breaking in the cold weather.

Works good and was affordable.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

This suit is okay for the money. it looks nice and fits comfortably. It wears out quickly, however. The neoprene is overly-compressible, and creases and folds become permanent. The neoprene is so spongy that the suit loses its warmth after relatively few dives. Also, the nylon outer skin is not very durable; if it rubs against anything, it piles up and the surface becomes rough.

Like a second skin!!!

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

This Akona 3MM wetsuit is perfect for warmer tropical waters and fits well if you are of average proportions.
The "shark skin" around cuffs help to form a tight seal, and the reinforced areas on the shoulders and knees provide extra grip and protection.
A great value for the money!

I had this suit for a while now with no problems. It is only 3M so I can only use it in the summer where I live but I like how it is less restrictive then the thicker suits.

I would buy this product again and again

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

This is a great wet suit at a really great price. Akona makes good stuff. It seals the water out at the ankles and wrists as well as neck very satisfactorily. I have used the suit in salt water diving in the Dominican as well as fresh water dives and snorkeling and it kept me reasonably warm and dry.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

I am a new diver. Being a guy that is on the heavy side I thought I wouldnt be able to easily find a wetsuit, or if I did that it would cost me an arm and a leg. I bought this wetsuit and I couldnt be happier. Fits perfectly and a price I wouldnt have dreamed of. It shipped on time and I was ready to dive in no time. I would recommend this suit and [...] all day long to anyone!!!

I made my first open water dive in this suit. The surface temp was 64 degree’s and in combination with a hood, it made for a comfortable dive. Very nice suit for the money.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

I have had a version of this product for about 5 years and have over 450 dives with this wet suit. It has performed well although it is now time to replace as it is starting to wear out. It has taken abuse well and has survived surge currents and barnacle covered rocks without tearing. After numerous dives it has begun to lose its loft but that is to be expected and I still dive it comfortably in 74 degree water. This is a good suit that gives good value for your money.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens One Piece Jumpsuit:

This suit is great. I have a hard time finding suits that fit me ( 6'3, 285lbs ) and this fits great. It's a little hard to get on the first couple of times, but what wetsuit isn't. Now that I have it broken in, it's great.
