What riders are saying
Across several model years, the story barely changes. It's warm in 48–50°F water, it paddles fine for a 5/4, and riders keep comparing it favorably to suits in the $450–600 range. The recurring gripe is the chest zip, which is fiddly to thread and do up, plus a snug fit in the arms and legs that loosens after a few sessions.
Based on 34 reviews across 5 sites, averaging 4.8 / 5.
Riders like
- Warm in 48–50°F water, with little flushing through the hood
- Flexible enough that paddling isn't a problem
- Strong value next to pricier winter suits
- Dries fairly quickly between sessions
Worth knowing
- The chest zip is fiddly to thread and close
- Snug in the arms and legs until it breaks in
- Less stretch than the premium suits, and one rider had the hood seam tear on two suits
★★★★★
“Compared to other suits in a similar price range, I think this suit has the best balance of comfort, durability and features.”
★★★★★
“Suit was very warm in 49 degree Virginia Beach water. Little to no flushing from hood, and very flexible for a 5/4.”
★★★★★
“Chest Zipper is difficult to engage, or I would have given 5 stars, suit is so warm you never feel a thing out there even on a freezing north wind.”
