Opinions?

Even with undergarments, the crotch and upper thigh sections seem quite baggy.. The midsection seems loose, but you do want a little extra fabric in places to give you range of motion... If a suit is too snug, you'll have limited movement and you won't be very comfortable.. The arms look like a good fit though..
 
The suit looks a little too baggy, and perhaps too long as well. Is the suit new or used? If its new, return it:) If its used, you can get it altered.
 
It may look too long and baggy when you are standing, how does it fit when you squat down as if to burp it. You should be able to go down all the way. Does it bind anywhere? It does look serviceable but if this were a custom or even semi custom it'd be going back.

Oh it doesn't bind anywhere, it just swims on me.
 
Correct me if I am wrong here, (I am no expert) but since it is a front diagonal zipper the suit should be long in the torso in order to don easily. The extra material needs to be folded under and I would think it would have a crotch strap to help control some of the bagginess and maintain the under fold of the material.
