Unhappy Is my Picasso wetsuit the right size?

I just bought a Picasso wetsuit size 54, 54 is off the picasso size chart. I'm 6' and 183lb. I just tried it on and it fits nice but i'm not sure if its tight enough. Now i'm second guessing myself if i should have bought a 52 (i'm a little unsure what a perfect fitting suit should feel like because my last one was too tight). I can exchange it but maybe it is the right size i'm just unsure. Help please.

Re: Is my Picasso wetsuit the right size?

It should seal to your body everywhere, especially at the torso. 54 sounds right: my Picasso was a 52Long as I'm 6'1" and about 10 lbs lighter.
The only way to know is get in the water and do some good dives over 10 metres...if you have cold water constantly flushing through, you'll need alterations or exchange for a slimmer suit. If it's tight, no problem unless you are restricted at the neck and blood flow is interrupted to your bean! It'll stretch out in any case and a tighter suit to begin with is a better way to start.
Peace,

52 seems to be the good size for you. The best way to know is to jump in the water as soon as possible, and if you're not satisfied, send it back to your seller, and order another size. Don't wait...

A custom made wetsuit will put all these questions out of your head next time...

Good luck!
