Super dinky surfer....

By djrafikie at 5:25pm on 20th Aug, 2006

I am currently wearing a wetsuit for a ten to eleven year old. It fits in height, and round my calves, but it's squishing my poor boobies :*
I pretty much need a minature version of an adult suit, and the kids suits are small enough, but are'nt made for anyone with curves (obviously). Any suggestions as to where I can lay my hands on a decently fitted effort? I'm too skint to get a new one custom made right now!

I know that Rip Curl do

I know that Rip Curl do ladies size 6 or XXS and I think Roxy too. Rip Curl have a little size chart on their website, click on the little man http://www.ripcurl.com/products/gallery.asp?action=viewimage&categoryid=378&text=&imageid=2309&box=&shownew=

Maybe try looking on American websites for other maybe cheaper brands as there is craze at the moment to be a size 0!

heyyyy

Size 0 infers I diet, I don't diet! I just never stop! (both eating pie and running around like a loonie). I note all the sites mentioned still go to kids sizes when I go down to 5" and under.. still no boob allowance.. maybe I should start making some, seems to be a gap in the market here! (I'm a size 2-4 btw, not by design, genes, I'm like a small girl shaped hat stand.)

sorry if you took offence -

sorry if you took offence - none meant!

I didn't mean to infer that you were a size 0.

Sounds like you've done the research, hope somebody else can be more helpful

;-)

no fuss!

Not offended, skint and desperate...lol
gotta be SOMEWHERE or someone that makes silly size suits? I'm being compressed and will end up like a jelly in a mould! I'll crawl out and really will look like a 10-11 year old, years of puberty gone to waste!

Snugg?

I know you said you can't afford custom, but their prices aren't all that much more than a nice off-the-peg suit. Maybe they'd do you a specially adjusted junior suit? They do a 3-2mm "Heata S" for £90, although I'm not certain what kind of suit it is.

Prices here: http://www.snuggwetsuits.co.uk/prframe.htm

good plan...

I can't find a near fit on their website, but I googled them and there are loads of really positive reviews re: their tailor mades and really good prices. TA HONEY! *mwah*
