Henderson Women's H2 5/3mm Hooded Vest

With respect to most items that can be bought online, I am usually very pleased and the sizes are true to their description. In contrast, I have recently had the need to order neoprene-type clothing (dive vests, pants, jackets, and wetsuits) and I have had very bad luck with getting things to fit on the first try. This vest is a case in point. I bought the size 12 because the size chart suggested it would be appropriate. The item was size enough to get on, and fit me in length and across the bust. However, the arm holes in front and in back were too small, and the item chaffed across my arms when I moved. I am returning this model. I purchased another 5/3 mm hooded vest from another vendor on Amazon in a size 12 and it fit great and had arm holes that permitted full range of motion, I wore it out SUPing today and it was comfortable kept my core warm

Works well to help keep you warm, but it seems to fit more snugly than some other Henderson products, and puts pressure on my jaw that can be uncomfortable after awhile.

I am smallish 5'7" and 130 lbs and this was way to tight, I ordered a size 10 and its to small

A nice price on an OK hood.This is not professional wear however.For this, you have to pay over $150.My partner likes it and so do I

The portion around the face is way too tight. My jaw was actually sore after trying it on for less than ten minutes.
