Comments about Bare Bare 5/4 Velocity Full Suit, Men's:

I am usually warm while diving so I was a little concerned about using a 5/4 in warm water. But I just got back from the Philippines and the suit was great! Average water temp was 80, and the I didn't overheat at all, if fact with all the diving I did it was perfect. The suit was easy to don and doff, and dried quickly. The sizing chart was spot on, and the suit fits perfectly.

Comments about Bare Bare 5/4 Velocity Full Suit, Men's:

I have had 20 dives with this suit, a couple in reasonably cold water ( 13o c) other guys on these dives had 7mm suits an felt the cold. I had a problem on the 5th dive when the zipper broke( my fault) replaced it with a heavy duty and had no more issues. This suit is easy to put on and remove and the size chart online is very accurate.

Comments about Bare Bare 5/4 Velocity Full Suit, Men's:

I wanted a suit i could use in both cold and warm water. I went to cozumel in June and the water was 82 degrees. went diving with it for 5 days and never got hot or cold in it once. Havent used it in cold water yet but im sure its going to be great. Its a nice tight fit but you have excellent movement under water,and you never feel tied down.

Comments about Bare Bare 5/4 Velocity Full Suit, Men's:

I had the same wet suit before that was about 8 years old, it was worn out so I replaced it with this one. The difference is that the old one was a medium/tall, this new one is a medium/large/tall. I am about 6'2.5", 180lb and I think the medium/large/tall fits a little better, it's the proper length in the arms and feet. If you're not at least my height though, it will be too big.

The new suit is very noticeably more buoyant than the old one, but that I think is just because it's new. Over all, very happy especially for the price. I'd recommend this suit to anyone.

Comments about Bare Bare 5/4 Velocity Full Suit, Men's:

With all the sizing available it is extremely difficult not to receive an almost custom fit.
Leisure Pro was accomodating in allowing several exchanges and went well and beyond to special order a M/L Short for me. They are more than outstanding.
As for the suit it feels very comfortable and was easy to slip on. It kept me warm in early summer diving in Florida w/ 77 degree water temp.
An excellent buy.
