I'm ready to buy my first wetsuit however I don't have what you call an "off the rack" figure. Does anyone know where I can order a custom wetsuit? Oh and I also need it in less than 2 weeks. HELP!!
 
Search the forum for:
LiquidFit
Atlan
Aquaflite
And other custom options.

I prefer a situation where a dealer (idealy the tailor) measures you and checks the fit of the delivered suit. This is the case with an Atlan dealer. Being in IL away from the enoprene mecas this would be my prefered option. http://atlaninc.com/default.html. If you like a pattern but prefer heavier material they will work with you.

My wife dives the 2 PC custom Tahoe all in 7mm and it's very comparable to my Bare Arctic fullsuit and hooded step-in vest. He suit incluides nice gasketing and zipper details. She also has a 5mm LiquidFit that is serving her well.

As for a 2 week turn around they all have been known to work miracles but it may need to include some premium shipping at this late date. Given the short timetable I suspect this may be a warm water suit which any of these can deliver nicely.

Custom is the way to go if you have identified the need. Enjoy the suit and dive safe.

I ordered a suit from Liquidfit.com. I should get it early next week. I will let you know how it fits. But I'll even model it for you, Sideband! :10:
