Fit Tips
If one of your body measurements is in between two sizes, order the smaller size for a tighter fit or the larger size for a looser fit. If your body measurements for hips and waist correspond to two different suggested sizes, order the one indicated by your hip measurement.
How To Measure
WAIST: Measure around the narrowest part (typically where your body bends side to side), keeping the tape horizontal.
HIPS: Measure around the widest part of your hips, keeping the tape horizontal.
CHEST: Measure the fullest area of your chest. Stand up straight and breath normally.

AustraliaVery well made
I've never come across a pair of sailing wetsuit pants so well made. The special knee fabric is just what I need for a bit more protection. It stretches well and so far no sign of wear and tear. The high back is really good - no pulling pants up half way through a race!
United StatesFor the F/W Season
Wetsuit fit with premium flexibility. Upon receipt, I wore them for a paddle in overcast and 50 degrees (18 C) conditions. Despite feeling incredibly snug, I was able to stand and kneel at will. The padded seat and knees provide comfort and protection from the elements (e.g., water and wind). Caution: the waist is too big to specs. I order a large since I’m 34/36” waist and the waist is much larger, which led to pulling the drawstring tighter. Must buy for the Fall/Winter. I look forward to purchasing their unisex UV paddle pants for warmer days.
United States
United KingdomVaikobi Flex Force 1.5 mm
This is an excellent bit of kit, it’s very comfortable to wear and has a low absorption rate which helps to keep you warmer and more efficient. I honestly feel as though I haven’t got a wetsuit on, it’s that good and very easy for moving in.
CanadaFlex force
An excellent product that fits well and functions as described. Have Vaikobi down as my go to for paddling here in Canada.
