Waterproof W30 Fullsuit - 2.5mm (Men's and Women's) - Men - XXL. W30 FULLSUIT
2.5mm Backzip
W30 Sport Series, features the wizardious WPAD
Sometimes at Waterproof they hear through the grapevine that their suits are too warm and too excessively well constructed. Well, if that is a criticism, Waterproof can live with it.
To combat the fact that their standard suits are too warm - they have come up with a clever solution. They recommend that you buy a thinner suit – preferably the new W30 Sport Series from Waterproof.
To keep the professional divers happy, the new W30 2.5 mm full suit features a unique and clever gadget, the WPAD.
The WPAD, or the Waterproof Personal Accessory Dock, is an artfully constructed docking station located on the right hip for a line of new accessories, like pockets, lamps or Speargun holders.
Waterproof confesses that the new Sport Series, unfortunately, suffers from the same disease as our standard collection, it looks smart and it is well constructed, the fit is excellent and it is probably too warm and comfortable as well. Unfortunately, they just cannot help but produce their suits this way.

Waterproof Wetsuit Sizing
It's extremely important that you read and fully understand the following about the sizing of Waterproof wetsuits before ordering one.
Size really matters! Despite similarities in measurements or weight, every person's body is unique. The Waterproof size chart is a good starting point to estimate your size, but because a wetsuit should really fit like a second skin, you really need to take the time to get it absolutely right.
The neoprene materials used in Waterproof wetsuits are fantastic in performance and durability. However, they are not super-stretchy the way many other suits are these days. So Waterproof has a lot more sizes in order for people to fit into their suits, rather than relying on the suit material stretching to fit you.
While most wetsuit manufacturers have 4 to 6 sizes for the men's and women's suits in their range, Waterproof tend to have 10 to 20 sizes in each model for men and women. The goal is to get the wetsuit as close to possible to be like a second skin for as many divers as possible. With so many sizes, in so many models, it's extremely rare for dive shops to have everything in stock. Instead, we order wetsuits in from Waterproof as required, or have Waterproof ship the wetsuit direct to you on our behalf. Please keep this in mind when ordering.
In their size charts, Waterproof provide the measurements for Height, Head, Neck, Chest, Waist, Hips, Neck to Crotch, Neck to Wrist, Crotch to Ankle, etc. You need to take these measurements and match them with the Waterproof size charts. Each of your dimensions needs to be within 1 cm of the measurements listed. If you don't match all of these measurements for the suit size, the wetsuit won't fit you. Please don't think that just because you're a bit out in one or two of the measurements that you'll be okay and it will fit. It won't!
Please Note: If you order the Waterproof suit and it doesn't fit you, you'll have to pay for posting it back to us. Plus, there will be a 10% restocking fee if you're cancelling the order. If you're switching to a different size Waterproof wetsuit, you'll have to pay for the cost of shipping the exchanged suit to you.
We don't like having such an unforgiving policy in place. However, time after time, people order Waterproof wetsuits, even when we've fully informed them about these sizing issues and for some reason, they think being a bit out in one or two measurements won't apply to them, and she'll be right. It almost never is! Then the two and from exchanging suits process starts to happen, which is frustrating for everyone.
Again, the Waterproof wetsuits are fantastic when they fit you. But they just don't fit everybody.
Note: This item cannot be delivered outside of Australia.
