"I'm only 5'6" @ 215-235# (varies), so finding an off the rack suit at a good price was a challenge. I bought my XLS when I was 215#, but find I can don it even at 235# without getting winded over a dive skin. A little restrictive in the chest at that weight, but no hassle down below. Nice and warm for midwestern quarries, Lake Michigan, even Bonne Terre in January. Good enough knee pads. Silky lining is easily shredded by the velcro neck closure, so I keep a piece of cotton felt over the velcro hooks when not in use. Neck seal occasionally leaks down my back when not using the hood on hot days, feels kinda' nice! Recommend buying the VENTED hood; tight but comfy face seal. "Progressive Stretch" means only blue panels are extra stretchy, grey panels are standard neoprene. Beware of super cheap deals on Velocity product as BARE wasn't delivering "Progressive Stretch" til mid-2006. I've seen older product advertised for less $$, and the pix look the same. [...]"

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
