Fourth Element — Wetsuit Size Charts
Use this guide to match your measurements to Fourth Element sizes. Always try if possible or check individual product pages for availability.
Measuring tips
- Height: from top of head to floor (barefoot)
- Chest: around the widest point
- Waist: at the narrowest point
- Hips: widest point over the buttocks
- Arm length: shoulder point (HSP) to wrist bone
- Inside leg: crotch to floor
Note: Fourth Element tables primarily list height, chest, waist, hips and inside leg. If you require a specific arm length (neck→wrist) check the individual product spec or contact Fourth Element — some product lines publish HSP-to-wrist.
