Great Skin in Sports

Great skin! I'm 5'4 and 160# and ordered M and it fits well. I've used it for 16 dives and it's holding up great! No complaints here!

Pros
  • The material is elastic and adapts easily to the shape of the body. It should be snug but not tight so it can stay warm.
Cons
  • 0

Worked well under my wetsuit

I put on a 3mm wetsuit and it worked great. It can also be worn alone as a diver's skin for protection from sharp rocks and stinging creatures.

Pros
  • The Skin is a versatile full suit for water sport activities such as snorkelling, snorkeling, kite surfing, wind surfing, kayaking.
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

Cheap zipper broke after 8 dives

Zipper broke after 8 dives. Unfortunately, our return or exchange option has expired. There is also no way to contact the seller. Was hoping Cressy would have a chance to make things right

Pros
  • 86% polyester/14% spandex
Cons
  • No instructions

Perfect Skin for Sports

122 lbs, 34-26-35, 34A, 5.5 ft. This leather suit fits like a glove. Well made, stretchy, great quality, easy to put on and take off. I use the Scuba Pro for wet/dry suits but it's better and cheaper. Come Cressy! The Italians know how to do it!

Pros
  • Rinse with clear water after use and allow to dry. Don't use unexpected chemicals. You can wash the product in a washing machine, but at a low temperature. Do not put in the dryer. Hang it up, it dries very quickly.
Cons
  • Not the Best

Requires a 1mm rashguard to protect against jellyfish.

It is very difficult to find suitable wetsuits because they are made in China as unisex. and my body just doesn't fit Chinese size. So it takes a lot of trial and error to find one that works for me. It fits perfectly, it's snug enough to work in the water.

Pros
  • Leather designed in Italy and made in Cambodia by Cressi, a pioneer in diving, snorkeling and swimming gear.
Cons
  • High price

Nicely done. You look good! Runs big and long.

This is a really good suit for outdoor swimming in winter! I ordered small. I'm 5 feet 1 inch and 128 pounds. I floated in it before hitting the water. I don't see myself as an extra little girl, but I suppose that's what I would buy. I tried it on, besides, the legs are quite long - but I'm fine because there are stirrups and I swim with fins.

Pros
  • Please refer to the size chart to find the most suitable size for you. If the purchased size does not fit, it is possible to change it.
Cons
  • Reliability

Very good! in water sports

I am impressed with the quality. It looks very nice. I usually wear a medium size, but after reading the reviews I decided to order a large, which I'm glad. It fits perfectly. I'm 56 inches tall, weigh 148 pounds and have a long torso. The medium would be too short in the torso area. Haven't used it yet but will use it for snorkeling in Cozumel. I will update my review later. I love wearing it for sun and rash protection and I love how light it is. Update: I wore this skin snorkeling in Cozumel

Pros
  • zipper
Cons
  • quality

Leggy Friendly

I have just received and tried on my suit. Fits well and I look forward to using it for kayaking. The only reason I'm giving less than 5 stars (and wish I could give 4.5) is that firstly mine wasn't like the picture. I ordered black and silver and mine came with a black zipper instead of a silver one as pictured. No big deal. but not what i ordered. Second, the thumb straps don't seem to be oriented properly for use on my thumbs and they are quite small. They break the cycle (I don't have big…

Pros
  • Imported
Cons
  • Faulty
