<font color='#32CD32'>Hey everyone,

I'm short and fat, I need a 3mm all over wetsuit.

Where is the best place to fine one? Preferably Mail order or where it is closer to London rather than further afield.

Cheers
Juz

Juz,

Have a look for a made to measure one, &nbsp;at least then you should get a reasonable fit and can get it mail order. &nbsp;

Definitely worth doing if you fall outside of the sterotypical average kind of shape.

<font color='#000080'>Hi Juz,

We bought our 3mm wetsuits from a lady who sells hers on ebay. I figure she sells lots as when the one a wanted was out bid I mailed her and she just sent me one for the initial asking price. I've placed a link on the bottom of the page, but I figure you might not see it before it expires, so go to www.ebay.co.uk and select sports then scuba and there are lots listed in may sizes. Just email the seller and ask to buy one in your size. They're not the most attractive colour (or maybe you disagree) but het its a full length for 35 pounds. You could always dye it?

Happy surfing.

Does that mean you had to buy a separate suit just for that area of your anatomy

<font color='#000080'>Oi, behave. &nbsp;im quite proud of my extra medium suit. &nbsp;Used to be a favourite trick that, go into a shop, act really interested in something then ask for it in extra medium. &nbsp;if you got a really dumb assistant you could get them to go ask the supervisor if they had it....heheheheeee
