What size would I get for a 5', 160 lb. autistic Michigan teen who doesn't understand it's too cold to swim in the pool right now?

These suits tend to be small and it doesn't matter if the legs or arms are too long. I would get a large.they are great about returns if that doesn't work

Yow! That could be coooold! I would maybe look at a 4 or 5 mm thickness suit, that said, this is so cheap and if you get it on prime with free returns... Anyway, I'd guess Medium so you're not wrestling too much to get it on. It does need to be fairly tight and in contact with the skin to work properly, mine has a spot in the small of my back that doesn't contact so it makes a cold spot, which seems to be typical of low-cost wetsuits, but at this price I can't complain too much.

If he truly has a 20 inch waste then I would go with the large. I got the medium and it's a little more snug than I would like. Also there is almost an inch of velcro (closer) so that you can make it tighter if you need to. You can check with the manufacturer as well - they are a great company and will answer any of your questions or concerns. Good luck and I hope this helped.

I bought a 6-6x for my daughter who is around 45 lbs. If I were you, I'd buy a 4T, so there is some room to move (and grow). Unlike adult wet suits for scuba diving, you don't want this one super tight. Incidentally, my daughter is still a little cold in this wet suit, just because it's so cold outside. But she is much happier at swim class now!

I would go with the size 4 if she is a 4. It is snug but allows her enough space to put it on herself. The size 2 will be too small. It's a great suit and keeps her warm in the cold pool.

Gosh, sizing on this product I think is a bit tricky. I have read that lots of people have had trouble, as did I. I am 5'11", 180lbs, and I got a 2XL, which now seems quite foolish. It is way too big. I think a better size for someone around my height would probably be a Large or an XL, but I swim in the one I got. My waist is about 34 inches or so, and my build is quite average. Not nearly enough to fill that jacket out. Hope that is helpful.

I am 6'1" and i got a medium i weight 165 lbs and the wetsuit fits great. Just make sure to place the palm of one hand on the lower back to pull zipper up. The wetsuit is great

I'm going to try and answer your question as best I can... I purchased the XXXL, In the real world I wear a 18W in pant and a 20W, in tops. I considered to be very top heavy. It's a good bathing suit for swimming laps, so far so good. I do agree that there should be more specifics when comes to sizing.

Probably M for Tri swimming. Lengthwise M is the right size but you may feel too tight. But it has to be tight so that no water flowing through.Hope it stretch out after using for a while.

The wet suit belongs to my son. He is about 6' 1" and probably weighs around 150 - 155. The size he got was MT which I assume is a medium tall. He is happy with the fit.

I'm 6'2'', 200 lbs and think with large shoulders. Wear size 12.5 shoe. I ordered an XXL and have been very happy with it. When you get in the water, the material tends to suction to the body, so I'd recommend worrying more about the height because you don't want water spilling in over the top so more height allows you to go in deeper. Shoulder straps are adjustable. Hope this helps.

I am 5'9", 160lb, waist 34. I fit size medium or medium large wetsuit. You didn't mention your weight. My thought is that there may not be a wetsuit exactly fits you. However, my suggestion is that if your weight is heavier than me, you can choose medium large or large one, although it is much longer than you needed. But you can do something in your leg part and make it short.

Yes, the sizes are based on your swimming ability. If I were you I'd buy the small. A mile is above a novice level. Also, you can check the tyr website to help you decide

I would purchase a size med. The vest is very nice and my grandson loves it!

I looked on Speedo website and they list the following: Swim vest: Medium is for year 2-4 with chest 22" and weight 33-45#. Large is for year 4-6 with chest 24" and weight 45-60#.

I purchased my son a "12" and it fit and he is 5 "1". I think your son my be in between sizes? I would get the 12 and if it doesn't fit the return it to amazon and get the 14. Lastly, buying wet suits on-line is REALLY hard.

Based on what my son ordered he has a 34 inch waist and the large is swimming on him. Go with the medium.

I believe you are talking child size 12. With that in mind I would suggest ex small or small. It is ok to wear a little big they move smoothly threw the water even when big. I am a swimmer not a sales person I could be wrong. Check with sport stores and see if they carry fins that she could try on. good luck. They do help adults and children.
