Since this is the Women's Perspectives forum, I just want to point out that I know several smaller women whose Seaskin drysuits have been totally useless due to poor fit on the upper body. I'm sure they make excellent suits (for the price) for men and possibly larger women. Smaller women, not so much.Seaskin Drysuits | Custom-Made Drysuits Direct from the Factory

That's surprising since the measurements are done by the user and have special steps for woman. This is the first I've heard of an ill fitting seaskin based on gender. Maybe a missed step or ordered before they had step by step videos on measuring.Since this is the Women's Perspectives forum, I just want to point out that I know several smaller women whose Seaskin drysuits have been totally useless due to poor fit on the upper body.

It's not a single case. After corresponding with Seaskin about it, their reply is simply that they can't make the shoulders less wide (if they reply at all).That's surprising since the measurements are done by the user and have special steps for woman.
