Cressi Skin - Adult Versatile Full Suit for Water Sport, Warmth and Sun Protection

I really love cressi products. This skin doesn’t disappoint. It’s full length, I’m 5’5” and there is room in the length. I bought this for a shark dive that requires full coverage dark skins and it’s perfect. The stirrups even keep it tucked into my booties. I love that the zipper and collar provide a pop of color and it feels stylish, while also being very functional and providing full coverage protection from the sun and jellyfish. There is zero warmth provided from this, and it is not neoprene or 1mm anything just to clarify. I saw that on here somewhere, which is false. It is just a full length skin/rash guard. Note: you have to put it on like a wetsuit (ie both arms in the sleeves at once and then pull it up) to make it easier to put on and to not put too much pressure on the zipper. This is a great warm water skin. I’ll update after my next dive with it.

I am NOT a super-hero! (That was just a rumor) I wanted a suit to snorkel in and protect me from the Portuguese Man-Of-Wat jellyfish that drift around Hawaii and other locales I plunge into. The fabric is insanely elastic, the zipper just enough to easy donning, and the foot and thumb loops are helpful too. The style is quiet, and no one will rush up to me and exhort me to save the city! Great fit, easy care, light weight for travel to tropical waters. Andiamo! (Cressi Sub is an Italian company, dummy!)

Bought one for my son to wear under his wet suit during his open water testing. He is 5'5" and weights 125 with a slender, athletic build. A medium fit correctly with a little room to grow. Since he has very little body fat as a younger teen, it runs just a little long on him. He has no real horizontal growth to use up the extra fabric. A small would have certainly been too small, and a large would have been equally wrong. I am an an advanced certified diver. I have a similar skin made by a different company, but the material and build are similar. I have no doubt this will withstand quite a bit of use as mine has done. It looks well made and having experience with the material of my own suit, I know it will do well under the wet suit. My only concern is that the front zipper does not come down as far as mine and as others have mentioned, it will have to come off the shoulders to use the bathroom. This is a minor difficulty however...just a note. Overall, happy with the purchase.

Bought for snorkeling sun protection, and it looks great after I carefully struggled into it. It fits perfectly. The zipper should go another 3-5inches lower. If it's an emergency snorkeling trip that you're trying to get to, or your anti-snorkeling in-laws have just arrived and you've got to get out of it, maybe it's not for you.

Great fit and perfect for diving when a wetsuit is not necessary for warmth. I prefer to have my skin covered during dives. This material has the thickness of a rash guard or swim shirt, just what I was looking for. Good zipper quality, easy to put on, a tiny bit challenging to remove when wet. Handled great in the water, did well in the wash machine.

I love it! Fits me well. I bought it for my OW classes weekend and it was perfect! Didn’t get sting or scratches, and didn’t get sunburned!

Fits well. Zipper needs to be longer

I have a ladies Large and it is a little short --I'm 5'8", 130 pounds - so I've orders a Xlarge. Waiting to see how it fits. Love the skin suit as it makes wetsuit super easy to get on and off, wet or dry. And skin suit dries fairly quick.

Comprei para o meu pai, para ele frequentar as aulas de natação dele - ele adorou. Tecido extremamente confortável e muito bom de se usar!

Mai più senza in mari tropicali e ottima come sottomuta in caso debba noleggiare la muta (tipo ovunque se non vuoi portartela dietro).

Produto corresponde ao que está descrito. Tamanho feito, chegou antes da data. Super recomendo!

Very good.

I purchased this as a layer to wear underneath a 3mm wetsuit for December diving in Mexico. I am 5'2" 120lb and the Small fits me very easily when dry. Since lycra expands in water, I suspect that the XS would actually be more ideal as an under-layer, with less wrinkling, but I couldn't get one shipped in time. The Small will do just fine. Like some other reviewers mentioned, the zipper could get a little uncomfortable pressed against your neck if being worn under a wetsuit, but I think unzipping it a little bit solves that problem. Some flexibility is required to get your arms into the sleeves, as the zipper is probably 1-2 inches shorter than it should be. Not a huge issue for me, but I do agree with the other reviewers on this point. The little thumb loop is a nice detail that makes it easy to keep the sleeves from bunching up when putting on a wetsuit. Overall I'm pretty happy with the quality of this item for the price. Maybe I'll upgrade to a super fancy and expensive skin from a brand like Fourth Element one day, but for a diver who is just starting out, I think this is a great choice at a good price.
