Wetsuit siz

    Hi all,

    I have my eye on a Roxy wetsuit but it comes in US sizes on a .ie website. I am a size 10 which would normally be a size 6US but according to their size chart I need a size US10. I've contacted the website who asked me for further measurements which I gave and have heard nothing back. This wetsuit is on sale and I don't want to miss it but I've no idea what size to go for. Anyone have experience of US sizes in wetsuits?

    I find Quiksilver (parent company) sizing fairly good. As in the 6US will probably be a 10, not oversized and not undersized. Don't forget, they're sizing for athletes (or people who are fit) and not overweight people. If it's for sale go for it, it's going to be stretchy.

    @John_Rambo thanks a million for that link. Going by that I'm somewhere in the middle but a mens medium fits so I'll chance it. Thanks again 😊

    They're very well made suits. In fact everything they make is high quality. I've been using Quiksilver since the late eighties, Billabong and ION are good too when it comes to suits.

    @John_Rambo I agree with you on that! I've only worn Roxy rash vests but they are excellent. I'm going from CSkins suit to this Roxy one (I've ordered it) so I'm pretty happy to change. Thanks for your help!
