My hobby is lake swimming. Needed a suit that would keep me warm and allow me to move. This one I thought was perfect because I don't really like wet suits and what they are made out of. This was a different experience for me, I felt in harmony. I am in the water many hours a week and the suit is doing very well. Good choice for me.
I'm 5'3 and 190 lb the size 18 short is still about 3 in too long other than that it fits perfect would recommended.
