Nice suit for anyone. Size seems small for the tag. But, this suit would be perfect with a front in-out zipper.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens Shorty:

Originally purchased for my son to break him in to snorkeling, as we are both beginners. It fit better than most other products he has tried. The price sealed the deal. No longer see a need to upgrade, as this is a keeper.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens Shorty:

It is a good suit and reasonably priced, but if you are taller or thinner, do not expect an excellent fit. The size L that I have is alittle cramped in the torso (streched to the limit in the shoulders and crotch) but the sleeves fit loose almost like a t-shirt.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens Shorty:

Bought this suit prior to going to Kona, Hawaii for a dive trip. The water turned out to be too warm for my 3mm full length suit which I only wore for a shore dive, and I ended up wearing the shorty for the remainder of our time there, including the night manta ray dives.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens Shorty:

Great for the price. I've used it on 6 dives and it has been excellent. Fits as per the sizing - just be honest. A couple of small issues that prevent it from being 5* for me. It chafes a little around my neck and the zipper can snag whilst doing it up but just zip it up gently.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens Shorty:

I am really amazed at the quality of this suit. I just got back from vacation... dove it 3 times a day for a week. Shore diving can beat up wetsuits pretty good... still looks brand new. Best bargain on a shorty I have ever seen.

Comments about Akona Akona 3MM Neoprene Mens Shorty:

I am a big and tall diver. I very happy to find this suit "on the rack" great price. Great value. Only draw-back - the rear zipper is very hard to operate. I would suggest the redisgn for a front zipper.
