review of body glove wetsuitsDecember 12, 2008 I have a 4/3 fusion which I am generally pleased, with a few exceptions. And the surf shop I go to (not the place where I bought it) thinks these are good for price/value. However on my suit which is only about 4 months old the breast piece (the different color front panel) is starting to separate from the rest of the suit where the glue/weld is. I have also had loose threads from the seam stitching start to unravel in the neck piece. I had to reglue and seal the joint. I am going to have to send it in for repair of the front piece, and no, I am not hard on the suit. I have posted this explanation here as it may be a generic Body Glove problem (i.e. quality control).
Rinse the wetsuit well.September 1, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I like this wetsuit. It is as described. However, rinse it well. After wearing for the first time I had a very bad allergic reaction. I had severe redness and itching from the waist down for two weeks. After that I rinsed it in the shower every day for a week before wearing it again. It's okay now. Haven't had this reaction with other wetsuits.
