Osprey Women's Full Length 5 mm Winter Wetsuit, Adult Neoprene Surfing Diving Wetsuit
K**T
Pros and cons
It is thicker in spots which is good(5mm) but the water pours straight in through the zip at the back immediately after being submerged in water and unfortunately with the loose neck and arms the ( body temp heated) warmer water inside runs out and then cold again pours through the neck and back.It doesn't take too long to dry, compared to other 5mm suits, which is good.A plus is that, it is very easy to put on and not too much of a struggle like other suits can be. It wasn't too pricey when I bought it but I have to admit I was disappointed. As I tried it out twice, I believe it would be silly to try and return it, and for the cost, it's not too bad. (£60ish)Suppose for the handful of times I use it, I could pop a rashvest under it or maybe invest in a different suit further down the line. Still rather disappointed with the quality for it being a reputable brand. Hope this was useful to someone. :)

Lasted only 5 times on surfboard!!!
We have been using ~8 different wetsuits so far (3 surfers at home) and Osprey one was absolutely terrible. It tore at the back after literally 5 times in the water. It was also not flexible and very difficult to put on. Amazon refunded it, great service in that matter, thumbs up for Amazon, but the product is very poor quality, avoid. We have much better experience with Decathlon wetsuits, very affordable and none broke so far. We also have Oneill and RipCurl but this is different price range so hard to compare. Anyway, save yourself trouble and buy something different, Aloha :)

Fit is as expected. I got a medium long. I’m 5’10” and a size 12 and suit fits really well
Easy to get on and off (very important if weather is cold!!) As someone who swims outdoors in Scotland all year round this is a great suit and very good value for money and comfortable to wear whilst swimming

Five Stars
This wetsuit was great for the first half dozen times it was worn. It was then put away for the winter and on the first use this season the rear seam has split rendering it useless. There are no seller contact details or clear guidelines on how to return defective items. Not fit for purpose and a very disappointing buy. If I could work out how to return a defective item I would.

Very good quality but not X large - I'm a size 16-18 and not big enough

otherwise it might seem like it doesn't fit
The wetsuit arrived really quickly, and fits really well and looks lovely. You need to be patient (the same as all wetsuits) and just make sure you pull it up enough, otherwise it might seem like it doesn't fit.I'm a size 10 and got a medium. I go paddleboparding in mine so I need plenty of movement especially in the arms. The medium fits really well and is easy to move in. The quality is good and its nice and warm with its 5mm thickness.

Very Basic wetsuit
I found that this wetsuit to be not the most comfortable and did not keep me warm for very long for a 5mm.It is inexpensive but only lasted one end of winter/spring season. The stitching and seams came apart fairly easily too, after one or 2 wears and I had to repair both suits I had bought often. It is not designed to last very long I would assume and hence the cost being lower than most suits...

Additional costs when purchasing Osprey wetsuit.
When I received the suit I liked the product. I ordered a small suit as I am 5 foot 2 and eight stone. Unfortunately this was too tight across shoulders. I therefore had to return the product. The size up was not available and there is no way anyway of returning for a larger size. To return it cost over £11 pounds and because the product was not faulty This ended up being being a significant extra cost for me. I find this disappointing.
