Title: new Portwest 5 mm wetsuit for 20 euro
Post by: Kater on October 26, 2011, 23:38:43

Hi all, if there are any small girls or small people (like if anyone has a younger brother or sister) who have a use for a 5 mm wetsuit, RUN to Portwest as soon as you can.  Do not walk.  Do not pass Go.  Do not collect 200 dollars.  Run straight to Portwest.

I was in there this afternoon browsing the wetsuits when I read that the price on one tag was 20 euro.  I asked a staff member if the decimal was misplaced or if it was defective and he looked it up in the system and shockingly told me that the price was right.  It is because they are the Portwest "teen" line and they had a boys 14/15 which fit me perfectly so I bought it.  I know a 5 mm is too restrictive for kayaking so I got it to use for surfing.

There is one 5 mm teen boys wetsuit left at the 20 euro price, but it is a size 12/13 I think.  If anyone thinks they are about one size smaller than I am, check it out!

MAJOR SAVINGS ALERT!

Great stuff Kate! My wetsuit is a boys size (age) 16 and it fits perfectly.
Anyone who can fit into a "child" sized wetsuit (and clearly they go up to adult size) can save a TON of money by buying one!

Also, Monopoly lol...  ;D

I don't have the body of a child and, as such, have to make do with adult-sized gear.
