Neoprene, especially older suits, shrink. A lot.
I've seen a suit that fit someone 6' and about 225lbs, that after a few years was tight on someone 5'8" and about 150lbs.
Resurrecting an old thread.
I've been watching some old westerns that I got on DVD, cheap. Whoa! That's Lloyd Bridges in Abilene Town. I remembered the big debate on his height. So I tried to compare him to the star of the show, Randolph Scott. I guessed he was about 4-5" shorter than Scott. Then I googled Scott's height which turns out to be 6'4". So that puts Lloyd right there at about 6'.
That's amazing! Now I know what happened to my Typhoon Ranger, and my Dive Concepts, and my wetsuits, and my pants, and my shirts...Quote:

It's not just the actual wet suits that get smaller over time but the sizes as well. I started scuba diving in 1985 and wore a size medium Harvey's High Tide (high waist beaver tail wet suit).
I have no idea why companies decided to make "smaller" medium sized wet suits but I have noticed that I now I have to get an XL to get the same fit.
