I’m tall and thin - 6’3†and 173 - which suits would be a good fit from these companies. I’m looking at Zoot, Wyn Republic, Wattie ink and Desoto. Any suggestions?
all the big brands have sizing charts. get whatever is closest to your fit per their chart and review their exchange policy before you buy so you can know you can exchange.
I’m the same body type as you, just slightly shorter and lighter (6’1 160). Haven’t tried any you have mentioned except Zoot, which I found was a good fit and really comfortable.
On to my 2nd Zoot trisuit, the 1st one didn’t last very long and I found Zoot’s customer service very poor in dealing with this, so I pretty much avoided them after that. The one’s I tried after that (DHB, Scody & 2XU) lasted well but where no where near as comfortable or as well fitting, so I decided to give Zoot another chance, hoping the first time was a one off. There always seems to be sales on the Ironman store, I got my trisuit for something like $70 a few months ago.
I would consider looking at a company like Roka that has tall sizes. Ask them (or others here), but I would think you would fit well in a MT.
Dont hesitate to look into our gear; we can send you a sample to help with your purchase.
thank you,

Zoot recently went through an ownership change. There was a time when their products/offerings were basically at a standstill. They have been releasing new products (shoes, wetsuits, etc) since late last year & seem to be back in the game in full at this point.
I’m an inch taller and about the same weight as you and got a De Soto Forza Sleeved FliSuit. It fits me well and I like the feel of the pad too.
Good Luck on your search.
