O'Neill Women's Reactor-2 2mm Back Zip Short Sleeve Spring Wetsuit

After trying unsuccessfully to buy a short wetsuit twice, this was the third attempt. I bought it from Amazon warehouse, so it was a great deal. My biggest issue is it felt like a woman's wetsuit didn't account for curves when they made bigger sizes. This one does. I ordered a size 14 (I am a solid size 12), but having research it seemed one size up was the best option. The size charts for wetsuits hard to use, because apparently if you weigh more you are taller??? This size chart was at least reasonable. When I got it and pulled it out of the box, the first thing I noticed was that it visibly had curves(thank you!). I worked it over my thighs and it is a good fit. I felt like the torso was a little short, but when I used it the first time that loosened up. I bought this to use on a cruise in January in the Carribean, I get cold pretty easy. Yes i could go in the water without it, but with it I was just that much more comfortable. The suit has just enough stretch. I went snorkeling with a dive shop, who was impressed with the quality. I would buy it again (if I need to buy a smaller size, since I am losing weight)

Used it for the first time over the weekend at newport beach def kept me warm after being in the water for 4hrs, easy to put on and surprising take off as well. Not a strong factory smell on it. I'm happy with my purchase. For sizing refrence i am 188lb and 5'7 and some change. Literally perfect fit.

This is a comfortable spring suit for paddle boarding and body surfing. Warm enough for 60degree water, good stretch and movement. I have had a hard time getting a good fit in wetsuits because I am 5’2” and very curvy. This suit fits very well. It’s also a prettier bright blue than the photo. Well made and worth the price.

Great for snorkeling around tropical beaches! Size was as expected.

I love how the suit is cut for my hips and legs, I am large on my lower half and this wetsuit is great. Not wanting to go to the public indoor pool during Covid I bought this suit to extend the swimming season in a lake near my house in north east Pennsylvania. I couldn’t be happier taking long swims in an empty lake in the beautiful fall, even In Late October, has extended my swimming season more than a month. I use this wetsuit with swim fins. It’s fun to swim with the wild birds like mergansers and geese that come when people put away their motor boats. This wetsuit is so high quality. It fits me beautifully. I got the largest size, 14 I think. I usually wear size 16 pants. I think O’Niel should make even larger sizes so everyone can enjoy swimming in nature, no matter what size. This is my favorite Covid purchase by a long shot. I’m even thinking of getting the full length suit next year- who knows maybe I could swim right through November? Also looking forward to testing this suit out in the early spring.

Comfy and warm but the plastic zipper broke on first use. I bought a replacement metal zipper.

best quality wet suit, i bought it for jet ski and i love it, it is comfortable, stretchy easy to put on or take it off. and the price is great for this product, i recommend this!

Returned this womens size 12 and opted for men’s medium short. I’m 5’2” with smaller hips and thighs. Women’s was definitely larger through those areas.The suit seemed well-made and the turquoise sleeves add to the appeal. Check sizing guide and order accordingly, and women shouldn’t be afraid to try men’s sizing
