1. Henderson Men's 3mm Thermoprene Pro Front Zip Shorty Wetsuit
Pros:
- Soft to the touch
- Comes with leg zippers
- Excellent customer service
According to the Henderson Men’s 3mm Thermoprene Pro Front Zip Shorty wetsuit review, this product came in comfortably small, and was soft and stayed soft all through the season.
This product comes with some excellent features you’re sure to love. The thermoprene sublimated neoprene material is soft, stretchy and flexible. The seams are heat pressed for superior durability, but they’re still flexible. The flat lock stitched seams are entirely leak proof.
This shorty wetsuit also comes with a three-millimeter seam. This gives you plenty of flex in between the panels for a much wider range of motion. The inner textile lining gives you body hugging compression, thermo-reflective inserts, a comfort cuff with a velcro tab, and long leg zippers.

(Black, L)
For someone looking for a light-duty wetsuit for fun in the sun, this one could be the perfect choice.
Its best features are easy to see when you step into this wetsuit. It’s a bit of a tight fit at first but it molds well. It’s not the fastest to dry if you get caught in a beach shower. That’s our only real complaint. It’s also a bit short for bustier women. But for smaller, leaner women, it has the right combination of moderate flotation and just enough insulation to keep you warm.
