For a wetsuit, we find that your weight is usually the most important measurement to follow. Height is less critical as a wetsuit will still function well if the legs are a little too long or short. We also suggest going for the smaller size if you are tossing up between two sizes.. most women's returns come back because the wetsuit fitted 'Too large'.
  1. Weight - Jump on the scales to weigh yourself.
  2. Height - Your full body height, measured from the floor to the top if your head.
  3. Bust - Keeping the tape level, measure under your arms around the fullest part of the bust.
  4. Waist - Measure at the narrowest part of the natural waistline with no tension around the tape.

Great brand, great quality, awesome service

Jacket is great quality (especially for the price!) and their service is awesome! I purchased less than a week before Christmas and it arrived in 3 days! The team at O’Neill were definitely working hard to get everyone’s Christmas orders out in time and it shows! Thank you!

Good Quality but not as flexible as I would like.

Good for purpose but a bit on the stiff side.

Perfect

Stoked with this jacket. I'm 178cm tall and 80kg, Large is a spot on fit including my Defender steamer and spring suit. O'Neil is the only wetsuit that is completely comfortable all over which allows me to buy with confidence online.
