    Need one for messing about in the sea with my kids. Won’t be surfing or diving in it. Not bothered what brand.

    Don’t want to spend a wedge of cash.

    Go!

    Decathlon?

    Are you near a decathlon? Have used theirs for a few years as the kids grew up. Seem robust and good value.

    edit – toooo slow

    If not, ebay, which is where my kids’ ones have come from.

    It is for me, not the kids. They have TWF ones.

    decathlon, Aldi, Lidl. I got a 20 quid Lidl shorty and have done 70 dives in it in warm waters (Red sea, Thailand etc). Bought a neoprene under vest from Decathlon to wear with it when the temp drops below 28C 😉

    Advice is the same either way.

    Second the theblackmount on Lomo wetsuits, didn’t recognise them from the url. The wetsuits we’ve got from them for visitors to our ski club have stood up well to general abuse.

    Decathlon but try them on fit is everything with wetsuits

    I am also saying decathlon because if it doesn’t fit it’s a waste of the cash. They need to be snug all over, any baggyness in the chest and it will just flush through
