Ctrilady Men's Neoprene Wetsuit Jacket with Front Zipper and Long Sleeves for Swimming, Snorkeling, and Surfing

I bought this to continue with my swimming workouts in the fall. I tested it out on a 95 degree day with 85 degree water and discovered a lot of through flow of water. I solved this issue by putting rubber bands around my wrists and tucking the top into the CtriLady men's bottoms I also bought and tightening the drawstring. Tried it today with the wind blowing hard and 53 degrees. Pool water was 74, so obviously not that frigid. However, I don't like anything below 78. I took a hot shower and filled up the suit with that and ran out and jumped in the pool and was pleasantly delighted that I stayed warm swimming (I also wore an insulated swim cap by the way). I don't know how it will be when the water gets down to 60 degrees, but at least I've extended the outdoor season for my swimming already, so that alone made it all worth it. Short of buying a full wet suit at 5 times the cost this seems like a pretty good solution. A little baggier than I'd like when it gets wet, and doesn't zip up as high as I'd like either, but it is working. I don't have any other items to compare it with, however, as this is my first experiment in outdoor fall swimming.Update: Tried it out with 69 degree water. Made it through, but a bit chilly. Without it I wouldn’t have even tried at all.

I have broad shoulders relative to lower body so a full suit would be too long. I bought this in XL and long johns in L. I also wanted this top to fit over a 3 mm shorty, that way I have multiple options, and I wanted something thin for mobility. For reference, some L t-shirts are too tight in the chest and arms and some are OK. I dove all over the Caribbean over the last 20+ years with nothing more than a shorty. Occasionally I got cold, but never too bad. This top is thin. I'm guessing 1.5-2 mil. Even though it is XL it is still tight (appropriately so) in the chest but lose in the arms (and my arms are not thin). The arm length is perfect for me (I wear 33-34 arm length shirts). I think it will be exactly what I want it, a layer on top of a shorty or long John, or I could wear it alone with swim shorts. Because it is lose at the neck and arms I don't expect a good seal, but that's OK for my purposes.

I'm not sure if this is a man's or women's! It dips the opposite of what a man's zipper would. It does fit good.It doesn't look like what was pictured either. It has. Large G on it instead of the brand name, "citrilady"

Bought the men's medium for something between my full and shorty wet suits to use while sailboarding. While most of the reviews were generally positive, I found the advice regarding proper size to be conflicting. I'm 5'10" with a muscular build. My weight is 165 lb, 43" inch chest, 32" waist, 48" measured around shoulders and chest, 35" sleeve. I have a difficulty buying shirts and coats that fit both the chest and waist, so the discussion about size was very important. I saw another review from a fellow with similar issues who I think was 6' tall, weighed 185 lb and was very happy with the medium. Others said that, when in doubt, get the next size up. The sizing chart suggested either a large or extra-large for my chest size. I took the advice of the other athletic fellow, bought the medium, and my fit is near perfect. The fit through the chest is taught but comfortable without binding under the arms. Sleeve length is fine, although there is extra room around the wrist (consistent with other reviews, but not a problem for me). The waist isn't baggy on me but would surely stretch for someone bigger through the middle. I used the jacket for 50 minutes yesterday and was perfectly comfortable the entire outing. Warmth factor was good for what I wanted- 65 degree air, 70 degree water, and windy. Very pleased with fit, performance and comfort at this point.

I ordered two items, the Sleeveless Mens Wetsuit Top, in size XL and the Long Sleeve Wetsuit Jacket also in XL. Both are good quality and I really like the front zipper on both. The fit is snug through the chest, midsection and waist but does not feel too tight. The material feel is smooth and not too rubbery. On the long sleeve model the wrist is snug but not too tight between the shoulders and wrists. It has a little looseness which is perfect because I was worried it would be too tight. The styling is great. The length is on the long side but will work well because I can pull it over the top of my shorts. Only thing I would change is the Ctrilady logo on a men's product. It is not too bothersome since the logo is small. Overall excellent product and a great price.

Good price and does what is intended for. Only complaint, it’s too loose in wrist area and let’s cold water enter there.

For the price, this CtriLady is an excellent men's wet suit top. The cut of this wet suit is made for thinner and more athletic builds. The only gripe I have for the CtriLady is the sleeve length. Following the size chart gives the best snug fit but you will probably find that the sleeves are too short. On vacation, it added a bit of bouyancy and stayed snug enough to keep the warm water in. For those who don't expect to use it too much, this is for you. For frequent beachgoers, you should consider a better quality one for better fit and performance.

My product experience is brief. I ordered a zipper front wetsuit top and wetsuit shorts on Monday and they came today, Wednesday. I tried them on and they fit fine. I am 5'9" and about 185 lbs. I don't have much of a gut but I am stocky. The pants are sized Large and they fit snugly around my thighs and buttock. I have thicker legs and butt than most. I did have to cinch it around the waist quite a bit but luckily there is a drawstring. The jacket fits pretty well. I got a size Medium. In reality, I probably should have ordered a Small for a tighter fit but I am not a big fan of being squeezed. The Small would probably be just a little too tight. Around the chest, the jacket fits perfectly. The arms and shoulders have a bit more room. We will see how they feel when I go diving in Hawaii in a week. The only thing I don't like is that the name of the company is Ctrilady so the logo makes it look like I am wearing women's clothing. Plus, the zipper on the Men's jacket is on the left which is also a women's design. Not a big deal but a very minor nuisance.
