Review on NeoSport Wetsuits Sports Skins X Small by Carlos Melendez

Multipurpose Warm Water Diving Suit

I have waited to write a review until I have had the opportunity to use it while diving. .Excellent work! It's more of a scuba skin than a wetsuit. Mostly a swimwear material, it is very easy to put on and take off even when wet, although it dries fairly quickly. I'm a small (5ft 3ft - 5ft 4in), round (195lbs) woman, so I ordered a size XXL to make sure I didn't over pull on the seams. Of course I had to hem. Legs are decent but for my size EVERYTHING needs hemming. Otherwise the fit was great. After 6 days of diving in salt water +/- 85 degrees I was protected from the sun from neck to ankles. (Be I have fair skin, I burn easily so this worked great! Protected me completely from the sun.) Very comfortable and even protects a little from contact with anything in the water. While I can't attest to exactly how it protects as I haven't really come across anything of note, I did carry a proper wetsuit just in case, but ended up not needing it in such warm, soft water. The leather worked perfectly. After 6 days of diving and thorough rinsing the logos on the suit were practically gone/peeling. to someone else. I really like this one, so I'm planning to buy another one next year. ...not that I planned for this to wear out that quickly, but like most "garments" the material in swimwear will eventually start to wear out with heavy use, especially if you're sitting on a structured seat during preparation.
