How do I choose the right wetsuit size?

You should choose a wetsuit size based on your height, weight, chest, and waist measurements. The suit should fit snugly like a second skin.

Should a wetsuit be tight or loose?

A wetsuit should fit snugly but not restrict movement. A loose wetsuit allows water to flow inside, reducing insulation.

Key measurements include height, weight, chest, waist, and sometimes hips, depending on the wetsuit brand.

If you are between sizes, it is generally better to choose the snugger fit or try different brands, as sizing can vary.

Yes, wetsuit sizes vary between brands, so it is important to check each manufacturer's size chart before purchasing.
