Me too !

Then quit bitchin' 'cause I paid like $535 for mine, and that was 15% off.   

For those of you that have this drysuit, did you guys go for exact fit or size up? 

Chest and height wise, I'm a small.  Weight wise, I'm a medium.   

Any input is appreciated.

I tried 'em on at Clavey's.

I tried the L first and it felt pretty good while I was standing and walking around. Then I tried on the XL and it felt a little baggy. Then I sat down on the floor and did some paddling motions. Everything felt OK and I was leaning toward the L. Then I figured I better do the whole sit on the floor and do paddling motions with the L. Luckily I did because when I did the paddling motions I noticed that the suit got tight in my shoulders. Nothing major, but enough to be an annoyance at best.

I ended up going with the XL.

I went with the suggested size which is medium. I put it on ok. It fits me nicely. When it come to time to take off, I struggled so much. The cloth material is not stretchable at all. To take my head in and off the neck bungee ring, I have to duck down. But I can't duck because there is no room to bend myself  . After several on/off I got a hang of it now. If I am to buy it again, I'd definitely go with the L size.

Thanks for the heads up, Mel! I just picked one up.

Pssst, you are not suppose to piss in your drysuit. You need to wash the funk out of your suit.

Wonder they take trade-in?

My twin Won,
They made little baggy for paddlers (compare to GoreTex swimming ones), so true size probably good.
I'm 5'6" 190lb & wear Large w/ some extra room for layers.
Medium probably good for you(?)

Tim, Did you get Hobie too?

Just in case some are looking for more savings.  They occasionally offer similar suits on eBay for $350.  Not sure the differences.
