The combination of the best materials on the market and their arrangement in specific areas creates a line of intelligent wetsuits: the Mares Trilastic.

Our exclusive protection for knees and shoulders completes the Mares Trilastic design to offer a distinctive look as well as superior resistance and protection. The design of the protective elements was conceived to provide maximum elasticity, and it adapts perfectly to the movements of the body.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

My wife gets cold even the warm waters of Roatan - This suit keeps her warm even during a long dive or multiple dives. It's well made, not any harder to put on or take off then most other wet suit on the market

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I had high hopes for this suit but it falls short. The length of the legs is somewhat short and the length of the arms is somewhat long. It seems a bit disproportionate. It is easy to put on and take off but the ankle seals are fairly useless and the neck seal seems useless as well. It is a bit of a flow through tea bag. I would not recommend this suit.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I tried two different sizes and neither fit well. I am a C cup on top, 125 lbs., and the chest was still too large, even after going down a size. I'm 5'7" and the legs are definitely too short on me! The material is great, it looks sharp, and I love the 5-4-3, but the suit appears to be made for a woman with extremely large breasts, a wider stomach, and short legs! Tall, skinny women beware, you might want to go with a different brand!

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I got this suit because according to the sizing chart, it would fit but when I tried it on, it was very big from the thighs, upper arm, and waist. The neck was a bit too tight. It was also a bit too short for me.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I was a little worried when I ordered this suit because another women had said it ended up being to long, it fits perfectly! It looks good, and it allows movement which is very important for windsurfing, surfing of any kind actually. I am going to be taking a divers class this fall and I can't wait to try it under those circumstances. I have no doubts at all about it working perfectly. an excellent purchase! Don't wait to long to get one!

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I frequently dive lakes and quarries in WV and wanted to extend the dive season with a little warmer suit.This suit kept me toasty in low 70's water. Arms are longer than I would like and it's a little loose in the stomach and hip area. Neck feels a little tight when out of water but as soon as you get in it's no longer an issue. over all, it's a great suit and I'm glad I have it.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I was looking for a comfortable, affordable, durable, and good-looking suit and this one did the job. Warm enough for colder water without losing mobility. The arms are slightly too long, but otherwise the size 6 fits my average sized, 5' 2" body perfectly. The wrists and ankles have a stretchy material for extremely easy donning and doffing.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I got this for my GF to dive in water about 18 degrees celcius and its fine for that temperature.

It seems to be a good quality wetsuit with good construction and has a nice liner which makes it easy to slide into.

Overall the suit is great but unfortunately the size isn't great for my girlfriend. She's about 5 foot 7 inches and got a size 14 on the .

Specifically, it's a little short in the torso (rides up the bum a bit) but is too loose around the shoulders and arms. Also, the suit bum could be a bit smaller.

Then again, fitting a wetsuit perfectly for a woman is very difficult, so it could be worse. The ankle and wrist fitting is perfect so it does restrict the flow of water in and out of the suit well.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I just had the opportunity to use this wetsuit in Puerto Rico on a scuba trip. It worked great. It fit well and the cuffs sealed really well. I got too hot when I sat in the sun for too long, but I purchased this wetsuit to also work in the much colder water in Utah where we do a lot of waterskiing, so that isn't a problem for me. While in the water I really liked how this wetsuit didn't cut down on my mobility. It was easy for me to put on except that I needed a little help to get the neck sealed right, but that was hampered by my long hair, so that may not be a problem for others.

Overall, I give this wetsuit two thumbs up. When the time comes to replace my husbands wetsuit, I want to get him one just like it.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

This is a great suit! I'm from Texas and I like it warm, so when I knew I was going to be diving in chilly water I got the Mares 5-4-3. It moves great, easy on and off. The only con I have with it is it is a bit long in the torsoe, but the legs and arms were fine for my 5'7" height. And it seemed a little loose around the tummy, but it wasn't a problem in the water - it kept me warm and toasty!

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

Great stuff. Fits like a glove (I definately recommend trying before you buy), and unlike my beloved 3mm Henderson Insta-Dry, I don't have to get me and the suit wet prior to use so I can slide into it. It also has great mobility and allows excellent freedom of movement. Keeps you toasty, too. Definately thinking about getting the thicker size for colder water diving.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I am an advanced diver, over 1000 dives. This suit is high quality for the price but it fits so poorly I thought I had a man's suit. Long arms (probably 4" too long),oversized arms (2" too wide). Not contoured for a woman's body. Difficult to remove.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

Suit was grea other than the neck. The neck rides up very high and chokes the wearer. Additionally because the neck seal is soo tight in front it doesn't make a very good seal in the back. Look elsewhere.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

This wetsuit is of a great quality, comfy, easy to get on and off. Problem is that is runs a little short in the torso for me. I ordered a larger than normal size- and the length is just barely enough but the stomach is loose. Result is that this suit does not feel as warm as it should on me. Absolutely a fit issue- quality is great.

This suit is worth every penny. It is easy to get on and off and is the MOST comfortable wetsuit I own. It has performed well even below 65 degrees, while not as warm as a 7 mil at this temp. it is far more comfortable. The plush lining is a great edition and am planning on getting the next level up mils in the same suit.

I am a scuba instructor. I came to Hawaii from Cancun. I went from 86 degree water to 79 degree water. I dive three or four times a day and I'm in the pool a lot too. Your core temp drops when you are in the water as much as me. I can say I am definately warm. Warm divers are happy divers. I love my wet suit.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

Very comfortable wet sut. Unfortunately, it's not easy finding the best fit when you order online. I have ordered this size before from another maker and it fit perfectly. The trilastic wetsuit came very big, so there's a bit of extra material which ends up feeling bulky and makes it difficult descending when I'm diving.

Comments about Mares Mares Trilastic 5-4-3mm Women's One Piece Wetsuit, Black/Blue Fog:

I work as a scientific diver, mostly doing repetitive dives in 76-79 degree waters, and needed a suit with at least 5mm to keep me from turning blue by the 3rd dive of the day. This suit fits the bill for warmth, and the trilastic stretch and plush lining makes it super comfortable and fairly easy to get on. My previous 5mm was the Henderson Hyperstretch, which was also very comfortable, but it felt more like a 3-4mm, and I got chilly diving in Hawaiian waters, especially after a year of diving. This suit only has about 40 dives on it, so we'll see how it holds up as far as compressibility and keeping me warm. My only beef is that the suit is slightly long in the torso, so it tends to gap and hold water. A size 4 would have been perfect (I'm 5'2"), but isn't available. But hey, the suit was discounted to [$], a fantastic deal for a 5mm suit.
