JOHN H I found the Henderson size chart to be quite appropriate for my body type: 175 lb; 5'11"; 40" chest was an ML, which fits me perfectly. There seems to be enough stretch in the fabric to allow the ranges which they list for ML. Personally I prefer a wetsuit to be snug rather than loose, so even though you are 185 lb, the MT would probably fit very well.

ROBERT H The size should be XL.The size runs a little on the small size

BILLY N Looking at what they have available a large would be my choice. A large tall selection, if they had one would be more in the guidlines, but with the stretching properties of the suit the large will be OK. Going too big is a wrong choice especially after some wear. Layering the core warmer inside other suits at first will give more room in the height if needed.

SAMUEL G My best guess would be a 2XL.l think hyperstrech is the Best suit Henderson ever made. Great choice.

JOE S I would go with a large tall...I'm 5'11" 180 and a large fits me very well , since your taller, the large tall would be the way to go

Marilyn S The Size Chart is on the page next to "Select Size" in blue. You will also need to know your chest and waist measurments.

DAVID F I think it runs small so I would order an XL tall. I returned mine because I found the velcro faster very annoying and it was not that easy to put on. I prefer a step in jacket which will give you the warmth and an easy on/off. Good luck

STEVE K Sorry it took so long to get back to you, but I have two similar suits. The Henderson with the velcro shoulder strap is not a bad suit and great value. The male part of the velcro attaches to the suit itself, so there is no irritating Velcro to rub your shoulder. It has been my experience that the wetsuit rubbing usually manifests near the underarms through repeated rotations on your recovery. This can best be mitigated by putting a little Vaseline on the area most affected. The manufacturers don't like the Vaseline application, but it probably won't hurt anything and after just a few times, your skin will toughen there. In short, the little suit is very comfortable, a good bargain, and should be used down to 70 degrees, but not 55 like some of the ads indicate. Hope this helps. Steve Katz

DAVID F I sent this back because the shoulder straps are hard to put on and adjust. Also the jacket itself is a hard to don as a regular full suit.( I would have used it for diving.) I can't imagine how much harder it would be to adjust while swimming. I am going to pay extra and get a front zip jacket and I would suggest you do the same,

ROBERT S The velcro doesn't go quite to the edge of the neoprene, so there is a 'safe zone' of sorts to keep the velcro away from your skin. However, I've never worn the wetsuit for continuous, long periods of physical activity. My gut instinct is to say you should be okay, but I can't guarantee that without having engaged in the sort of activity you mention.

LEN S if the rear tab is pulled forward on to the landing area, only the soft material is againts your skin. I think it might work well for you.

KYE E As an ex triathlete I would not swim in this suit, definitely would shred your shoulders on the Velcro

DONALD L It is ok gor me but I am diving not doing long distance swimming.

Brett H These two options would be the closest I would have: http://www.leisurepro.com/Prod/AKNQSJW3.html http://www.leisurepro.com/Prod/BREV3W.html
