Although I'm no expert on wetsuits, I think that this is a GREAT wetsuit! The shape for women is very comfortable for me, and this was the only size 16 that I found. I'm 5'6\" and I currently weigh ten more lbs than I want to, but this wetsuit fits me very nicely. And, it's the perfect length. I saw a comment, somewhere, about the decals. I haven't given a lot of attention to the decals, but on passing glance, the decals on my wetsuit look like they may have been designed to look like they were peeling. My decals aren't peeling. I bought this wetsuit to wear when exercising in Oregon nature, during the cold season. I first became sweaty in the wetsuit, even when the outside temperature was cold. I'm currently a little a little congested (with a headache,) probably because sweating in the outside cold may not be a good idea (I'm still learning about this whole cold weather thing.) But, anyway, I love the wetsuit, and I'm going to try to wear it outside again, when I get better.
