Comments about Pinnacle Pinnacle Escape 5mm Jacket Mens, Black/Royal Blue:
Just purchased prior to a trip to Spain. The water in the Mediterrain Sea is quite cold versus the Carribbean which is where we normally dive. The water temp was approximately 65 degrees where we were diving. I used this with the matching Pinnacle 5mm farmer johns and I was quite warm. Its well made and I do beleive after looking around at other wetsuits one on the nicer ones out there.

Comments about Pinnacle Pinnacle Escape 5mm Jacket Mens, Black/Royal Blue:
I bought the Farmer John bottoms to go with this jacket and both work great. Plenty of warmth for the colder waters in Europe. I needed plenty of weight when the suit was new but this should improve as it compresses. I'm in my first year of diving and wore this suit to take my first dives after Open Water certification. I'd say it's great for beginners and experienced alike. The jacket fits great and easy to unzip/get off. I like the velcro fastening on the bottoms.
I visited your NYC store last Novemeber whilst on vacation from the UK. I had a wetsuit in mind, a 5mm two piece for the waters here in Europe. I was a pretty inexperienced diver (though I've done more dives and certifcates since). The suit I'd looked at on your website whilst at home was out of stock in my size. However, your guys were really helpful, though busy. They showed me and my wife another suit from Pinaccle and did me a great deal. I was able to try the suit on in your changing room and made sure it fitted great. I took it away, on a boat tour round New York Harbour and home via some great diving in the Florida Keys. The suit has performed well so far. Many thanks to your staff and I hope to call in again next time I'm in town! Tony - Ipswich, UK.
