        Only used it a few times, but looks like it will hold up well enough.
        Seemed warm in cold conditions (34deg water), but I did keep the curved side down.
        Would be nice if it had a Velcro/hook&loop closure at the bottom of the legs to stop the zipper slipping open - maybe it's just my fat cankles!!

          I decided it was time to start enjoying kayaking all year up here in Northern Indiana. The main reason I bought this suit was to provide safety and warmth when hitting the moving waters.

          I really like that the suit moves with me and doesn't chaffe or keep me to warm while kayaking.

                    Q:

                    I wear a 46R suit coat and 34" waist pants. My shirts are all size large and fit well. Should I order the Large or XL. I weigh 175 lbs. I presume that there is a jacket that can be purchased to go over the sleeveless top?

                      I have a 52" chest 42" waist and purchased the same product. Going bigger for the jacket is a good idea - NRS makes one. It is a great product - like anything NRS makes.
                      I just got their SAR dry suit - 'Griz' size which could fit a small Cambodian village inside...good product there too.

                      A:

                      Rick, a wetsuit works most efficiently when it molds snugly to the body. That way a minimum of water can enter the suit and won't slosh in and out, robbing you of body heat. Take your chest measurement to see what it would be in a snug fitting wetsuit. I know I wear a 44" suit coat and I'm fine in a Medium farmer john. For more torso insulation you can add the Wetsuit Jacket, Item # 2210 to fit over the suit. Or for wearing under it, a HydroSkin Shirt, Item # 2261.

                      A:

                      I have the XL Farmer 3.0. I wear a 44R or 46R jacket. Waist is 35/36" and I'm 5' 11" at 195 lbs. The fit of the Farmer is correctly snug. My HydroSkin is also a XL and it fits snug as I'd expect a wetsuit to do.
                      However, my splash jacket is a Large. I was an in-between fit in the fitting charts and couldn't decide which was correct for me. So, after talking to NRS, I ordered both XL and L whereby once they were received I returned the one I didn't like. The Large I kept has proven to be good for me after several lake and flat river trips (class I/II).
                      From my experience; if in doubt, order both and return one. :-)

                      Get the large. With a 34" waist, the XL would be baggy on you. Yes,
                      there is an NRS wetsuit jacket.

                      I wear a 46 Sport Cut Jacket (Mainly Because I have wide shoulders) and I am 5'11" and weigh 230. I bought the XL and it works great for me. Nice fit and the arm holes provide plenty of room to paddle comfortably. Good luck...

                      lbs - same weight but our builds appear to be different. I recently
                      purchased a Lg. Farmer John wetsuit and it fits me perfectly. If you are
                      bigger than me through the chest and mid-section (and based on your coat
                      size, you are) I would recommend the XLg.

                      The Farmer runs a little tight in the chest. Go XL.
                      I wear the Endurance splash jacket with this. Works well! I also wear a
                      long sleeve rash guard for early and late seasons.
