Give me your recommendations for a tall 3mm wetsuit.
I'm 193cm 100kg (6'4" 220lb) and some might say athletic.
I have tried mares, seacsub, cressi and have not found good suit. If the suit is long enough it's always too wide. Size 8 mares was probably not too wide but felt too short.
I have 5mm seacsub xxlt, but I don't think they make tall versions any more. Are there tall versions on other brands?

When I dive in really warm waters where I dive with just a rashguard or with a thin vest my feet sink and I would like to get 3mm suit for helping with this. I do have 5mm boots and Apeks RK fins but those doesn't help enough.
 
Is Henderson available for you? OTOH, I don't see how a layer of 3mm neoprene on your legs will have a significant impact on your trim. I think there's probably more going on.​
 
6"7" ~250 lbs. I use a Henderson when I need a full wetsuit.
 
I’m a similar build and found the Pinnacle Cruiser line to fit well. They are longer and not as wide as others. Their Venture suits are way shorter even though it’s the same size chart, shows that nothing beats trying them on!
