Review on 🌊 O'Neill Men's 3/2mm Epic Back Zip Full Wetsuit - Enhanced SEO by Jeff Payne

1. Dislike - I wish O'Neil could find out that they have been cutting their suits 2-3 inches shorter on the legs for almost 2 decades. . Even the 2xl length was too short and all it had was 3 inches longer on the arms, same goes for the torso. I'm exactly 6ft 3" tall and the normal weight is 215,220. I'm 250 now and 2xl is perfect. Also with my normal 220 and Xl Toe the same problem. I'm not disproportionate at all. I even got my doctor to measure me and he said I was as close to being perfectly portioned as one would hope. Xcel wetsuits are completely different. The legs and entire wetsuit look like they were made to my measurements. But since I'm in distress I need a wetsuit to keep me in the water and moving me to get back in shape. I bought this suit and it was absolutely amazing for the $199 price I bought it for. It looks like the 2mm sections of the wetsuit are cut from a completely different high quality polyester, while the 3mm sections and legs aren't as oily as we are. I'm used to wearing wetsuits in more expensive models. I still don't get it, if you can make 2mm out of butter and put it in this suit, why not 3mm? If it's the extra blind stitches and ribbons that we use in high end suits. It doesn't make any sense to me. It would be an easy 5 stars if the material was the same everywhere. Finally, as mentioned in many reviews, the cable is too short. People with little or no experience will not be able to lift this thing without help. Thankfully that's not my situation but even I had trouble grabbing and holding it, had to grab the zipper at the bottom and pull down until I could close the thing without pinching or slipping out of my hands, because I just don't have anything to hold on to. It's 3-4 inches lighter (or so it seems) than all 5 of my other back zip wetsuits. In addition to the problems entirely related to the design. Wetsuits are an amazing 3/2 and will keep you warm whilst still giving you all the freedom and movement you have come to expect from a wetsuit today. I am 255 years old and still fit perfectly in 2XL. I've never used wetsuit weight as a guide because from this size upwards they always add length in the wrong places. Stars and I would buy O'Niell again as my favorite wetsuit to wear all year round. I would buy everything you need to surf comfortably in Southern California all year round. Full hood 4/3, 4/3 3/2, all 2 mil, long sleeve spring, short sleeve full sleeve, spring and jacket! But given that, it's still a problem after such a long time that a lot of people I know only wore O'Niell clothes. I don't see that, so I'm going back to Xcel and my favorite costume anyway. But if you want a wetsuit that is light in the pocket, performs as expected and is far from perfect. This suit is the best. You'll be warm, it'll last, and you can still buy a 4/3 with all the money you save.
