my son is 11 years old, weighs 70 lbs and is 57 inches tall. What size wet suit should I buy? How do I find the size chart on this site?

Hi Debra, I purchased a size 10 and my son is 9 years old with a slightly smaller build...so I would probably go with the next size up which is I believe a 12. Hope this helps. Good luck. Celia

I bought my son a size 14 last year when he was 62" and 90 lbs--hope that helps. Check the manufacturer site for sizes if that's not helpful.

Unfortunately, you will have to google it. A couple of external references that I hoped will be useful for you.http://www.wetsuitwearhouse.com/wetsuits/category/oneill-wetsuits-size-chart.htmlhttp://www.evo.com/oneill-kids-size-chart.aspx

Maybe, I am 5'11 or so, weigh 215lbs and I wear the xxl. Originally, I would have thought the XL would have fit, because that's what I wear for all of my clothes but I had to buy one size bigger in the wetsuit. I love the suit for the value though.

Amazon won't let us post the size chart for this item.... but here it is in the best form I can provide it: XCel Women's Wetsuit Sizing Size Height Weight Bust Waist Hips NB-CR 4 5"-5'3" 95-105 32" 24" 33 " 25" 6 5'2"-5'5" 105-115 34" 26" 35" 26" 6T 5'5"-5'8" 115-130 34" 26" 35" 26" 8S 5'2"-5'4" 105-120 35" 27" 36" 25" 8 5'4"-5'7" 115-130 35" 27" 36" 26" 8T 5'7"-5'10" 120-135 35" 27" 36" 28" 10S 5'3"-5'6" 120-135 37" 29" 38" 26" 10 5'5"-5'8" 130-145 37" 29" 38" 28" 10T 5'9"-6' 140-155 37" 29" 38" 29" 12S 5'4"-5'7" 140-155 40" 32 " 41" 28" 12 5'5"-5'9" 150-165 40" 32" 41" 29" 14S 5'4"-5'7" 150-170 44" 36" 45" 28" 14 5'6"-5'9" 160-180 44" 36" 45" 29" 16 5'7"-5'10" 180-200 47" 39" 48" 29" 18 5'7"-5'10" 50" 42" 50" 30" 20 5'7"-5'10" 52" 43" 54" 31" 22 5'7"-5'10" 54" 46" 56" 32" 24 5'7"-5'10" 57" 48" 59" 32" Note: Not all sizes are available in all wetsuits.

I bought the size our Grandson would use at his class. The Grandson was 8 at the time I bought his and since you son is 7 I would buy a size 3. He will be able to wear it for several years before you will have to get another size. Then when you have to buy a bigger size you can usually sell it to some one in the class.

I agree with Lloyd. You should probably buy a size small. I purchased a large and I'm 5' 10" tall and weigh approximately 160 pounds. The size large is roomy on me but that's how I wanted it because I want to be able to wear pants and a lightweight jacket or sweatshirt under the rain suit.

Measure the child's head and use the chart listed - my 5 yr old son measured as a large so I contacted the company to ask and they said it sounded big but just trust the chart. I did and his large helmet was a perfect fit! Snug but not uncomfortable.

Given that I have only bought one size, and I am a fully grown adult, it's difficult for me to recommend which one you should pick for your son. But, I did scan through the reviews to see which ones mention buying smaller sizes for their children. I came across a few that would at least come close to your son's statistics. The first one I found was bought for a 9 year old who was "Very tall" for her age, and they got her a medium. The reviewer said that if you buy a size perhaps slightly bigger than you were hoping for, the outfit comes with several straps that wrap around the waist and legs that can tighten it. (which I can confirm is true.) The only part that I've ever found to be loose is the upper chest region. I can't even seem to get that region to stay tucked in when I move around too much in the outfit. Also, another reviewer bought this for her 13 year old son who was 5'7 and 120 pounds and chose large. She said it was "a tad loose, but not too long." This is probably the example you were looking for, so listen carefully: Given the fact that you son is the same age as hers, and is both shorter and weighs less than her son, Medium might be a wiser choice - but remember I can't confirm that, I've never bought or tried any other side except for XL. At any rate, I think whether you pick medium or large everything will be fine. The medium might fit perfectly, and the large, if you decided to get that one, would at least be really comfortable, nonrestrictive to motor functions, and more importantly; he'd be able to continue using it as he ages and grows. So either decision you make I think you'll find good things about either of them. Hope I was of help.

Im 5'9 and 240lbs and my Large Short (LS) fits me like a glove. Im no expert, but I think a Medium Tall (MT) would be best suited for you. I would prolly suggest going to a board shop and trying on a few suits then ordering the one you want. Just be mindful that different manufacturers have different sizing specifications, but the Oneill Epic is such a hot seller, most shops have them in stock.

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.

Get what ever size you normally use. The suit its pretty good to size. If you buy Large then stick to that size.Plus they are pretty good with the exchange. I am 5'5 170lbs got the large & had to exchange to Med which is my usual size.

I bought a x-large and large suit, as they were the only sizes available at the time. My husband and I were going to use them for Breaking Bad Halloween costumes, but ended up going with another costume instead because we thought we would be too hot in these suits at the party we were attending. I am 5' 4" and 135 lbs and I was swimming in the large. My husband is 5' 11" and 200 lbs and the xlarge had room to spare. Hope this helps.

There is just not a good fit for what you need. You can take a look at the man size or the youth size. I would go to the sporting goods department and try some on to make sure what is the best fit first then buy here.Youth Size: http://www.evo.com/wetsuits/oneill-reactor-3/2-wetsuit-kids.aspx#image=71520/341891/o-neill-reactor-3-2-wetsuit-kid-s-black-pacific-blue-black.jpgMen Size:http://www.evo.com/oneill-mens-wetsuit-and-rashguard-size-chart.aspx

Medium might be a little big on him. I think it starts at 33 lbs. Please be aware, this is not a flotation device. My son wore his and he went straight under water. We got rid of it. I think it's more for kids who can already swim.

XXL, XL might be too snug, but with your size and weight, plus most wet suits are snug and usually are a size smaller, so my best advice is go with XXL.

Greetings Jason,I am 5'6" 210 lbs 44 shoulders 38 waist 16 1/2 neck. The suit fits me fine. I am thinking it may be a bit small for you, but then they are wet suits and need to be somewhat tight. I hope this helps. Check the return policy for size, I got mine super fast, so perhaps? Good luck! Jon

It's not so much your height but your weight, and how many layers you plan to wear underneath the rain suit. I'm a few inches taller than you and I bought a Large, which is plenty big. I'd recommend a Medium for you.

found the size chart on the company's webpage and based on other's answers I ordered a 36. I'm 5'7", 120 pounds with a long torso and it's a perfect fit.
