DeSoto T1 Wetsuit fit: Help Fast
Quote | Reply
I'm taking advantage of the great year end deals on the DeSoto wetsuits and ordering one. I'm in between the sizes 5 and 6. I currently weigh about 203 but plan on getting down to around 185 once I get back in shape. I'm 6'3" tall. Anybody out there have any advice on which size I should order, or how they fit? This is my first ever wetsuit purchase. Thanks for your help...

Thanks for the advice, I was just on the phone with Chad @ DeSoto and he helped me out. (I went with the 5, good motivation to slim down...)

Hmmmm. Well, the problem we always face in here is getting people to buy a small enough size. So my recommendation may be to size down.

Good luck Sir. Happy Holidays.

Me 6' 2", long torso.

T1 fit perfect when I weigh 210.

Me too fat now... look like pregnant sausage.
