As always with Buell, this wetsuit is exactly what I was hoping for. It’s extremely flexible and warm, and fits perfectly. Being from California, I hardly need anything thinner than a 4/3 but I’ve bee... See more

Don't tell anyone how great these suits are because I don't want the prices to go up. Compared to other expensive common brands, these wetsuits last longer, fit better, and are more comfortable. Spit... See more

Buell is legit

Awesome staff easy returns honored my promo code after my return to get me into my new suit. Britney was awesome and the in-store staff was super chill. I had a great experience. Ryan making top of the line suits for half the price not only shows this company is not greedy but looks out for the less wealthy making ocean sports possible for everyone.

Great suit

Great suit, fits perfect! Far better than any rip curl suit I've had. The seams on my new suit actually last for more than a month compared to my previous rip curl suit. Buy Buell

Suit is made of marshmallows

Warmth and mobility are great and it's the softest wetsuit I've ever felt. I'm sort of gorilla shaped and it's hard to find a wetsuit that's big enough in the shoulders and not too loose in the legs. I'm 5,10" and 165lbs. I got a ML and it flushes a little. that might just be my fault. Otherwise I love it!

Excessive shipping cost. Went to buy 2 excefor my son…

Went to buy 2 wetsuit one for my son and I. I live in Australia so the shipping was $165 USD. fair enough. But when I added the second wetsuit I was charged an extra $102 USD. I thought this was excessive when their advertising consist of how light they are ! I emailed them but got no reply.

Wetsuit purchase

Fast and accurate service. The Mens Small seemed to fit my kid smaller than the Junior 16. Ended up with a small tall that fits a bit long. It would be helpful to have an exchange system in place. Thank you.
