Go to www.Aleeda.com They will custom make the suite for you. It is only about an extra $40. I love their Advantage suite.

I have a second skin suit so would recommend them, and one of my friends has just had a made to measure suit by snugg, and he says its the warmest he's ever had. So yep either of those.

i used to have a custom suit from snugg cos i couldnt find a suit off the peg that i was happy with the fit.

Costs a litle bit more but its really worth it, ive never had a suit fit me so well as that one did (at the time) and fit is the key to warmth, comfort, and flexibility. The quality is really good too, and you can pick your own colours (even 80s retro neon colours 8) 8) )

Check the size chart on the O'Neill website. There is more to it than just height and weight. Find out what size they recommend for you, or check out some other wetsuit maker I'm sure they all have size charts, then go try them on. I tried on 3 different manufacturers before I found one that fit really good. And that is what matters.
