I've been fortunate enough to have used a lot of wetsuits. Beginning with the O'neill beavertail through the stiff fullsuits of the late 20th century, up to the present time. Many suits have their gimmicks: quick dry, neck gators, tight wrist and ankle cuffs, but they're still the same ill-fitting, moderately flexible suit.
Then a quantum leap occurred.
Isurus created a surgical glove
It's also exceptionally warm, with the flexibility in the shoulder and hips where it's needed.
As the Orthopedic Surgeon for the ASP/WSL for the last 25 years, I've seen a multitude of injuries from tight, poor fitting suits. The cut and stitch pattern is superb to allow exceptional flexibility through the shoulders. This decreases the risk of impingement syndrome and rotator cuff damage. The zipper less entry and exit is also very flexible around the shoulder which also decreases the risk of rotator cuff or labral damage.
I have also experienced myself the low back stiffness that occurs with a poorly fit wetsuit that allows low back chill. Even though the Shield is only a 2/2, the stitch and paneling is done to maximize fit with optimal warmth to the low back area.
Spend a little bit more on this fabulous suit rather than in my office with your shoulder pain. Buying quality never goes out of style. I rarely give testimonials, but I believe in Isurus wetsuits.
I don’t do surgery in garden gloves.
You shouldn’t surf in a suboptimal wetsuit
At Isurus, our passion is to build world-class wetsuits that stand up to the harshest conditions the ocean might offer.
Living and surfing in and along the California coast, a frequent topic of conversation was just how much wetsuit innovation had stagnated and quality had deteriorated. It is about designing a wetsuit that improves surfer performance. Click for more about Isurus wetsuits.

"🤙🏽 Best suit ever. My 2. 2 long sleeve shorty was 3 years + old and still pretty much like new - then it disappeared from my truck a few weeks ago. Just got the same exact suit again - the whole family is stoked on Isurus!! 💥 mahalo nui loa"
"Very good and excellent fit. Good quality and very warm for a 2/2."
"Awesome"
"The Very Best!!! Wear it every single day kiteboarding in extreme conditions and not only is it toasty, but still like brand new… definitely my new fav brand fer sure!"
"Been using Matuse suits for 10 years exclusively, this suit is way comfortably and easily warm as others."
"Super warm and flexible L/SL Spring. Easy to get on and off, obviously not as easy as a back zip but way more flexible and much less water gets into the suit because it is zipperless. Warmer than other brands of zipperless L/SL Spring suits because of the rubber. The neoprene rubber is actually 2mm thick before the outer nylon jersey is glued down. Other brands cut the neoprene 1. 5mm thick, so by the time the outer jerseys are glued down the overall thickness is 2mm. The thicker the neoprene the warmer the suit. Let's be honest, isn't a wetsuits first job is to keep you warm? I would buy another one in the future for sure."
"Still waiting to hear back regarding getting the correct size. They sent a XL instead of L. Great wetsuit customer service could use some improvementmprovement"
"Comfortable"
"Love this suit. No paddling restrictions, and keeps me warm during the dawn patrol. Thanks ISURUS!"
"A well made suit. Easy to put on/take off and move in. I still get chilled when the wind picks up but I think most people would be fine since I tend to run colder."
