- For the ladies if it feels tight around the neck fear not as this will also loosen after a few uses, most women don't like the feeling a wetsuit creates around the neck.
- If there is excess material around the back above the bum this is a sign that the wetsuit is to big and will fill with water around the kidneys which will make you cold.
- If the material is pulling down on your shoulders and you can see the silver showing through the wetsuit is to small and you will need to increase in size.
- If the wetsuit is over sized on the arms and legs in length but you have the perfect fit in the body then two things you may need to try a short model in that wetsuit for a perfect fit. If the brand does not make a short version then fear not it will not affect the warmth of the wetsuit at all.
