I am looking for a Farmer Jane with a jacket 7mm. I know there are a lot of sales on wetsuites right now but I am having a hard time finding the Farmer Jane that will stretch. I am between sizes and need something that has a good stretch. I am a new diver and have only seen one wetsuite at my LDS like this. It was too small and it looks like I can get a better deal from Liesurepro or Waterproof. The problem is not knowing which ones stretch more than others. Any help is appreciated.
 
I have a henderson thermoprene jane and jacket. It stretches enough that it has the give that i need in the hips and stays plenty warm esp. with a hooded vest underneath. I've used it diving in the low 40's and still been warm.
 
Thank you... I was looking at a Neo Sport 7mm Jane and jacket but it doesn't seem like it is as good of a quality as the Pinnacle Escape suit. I am just not sure how well either of them stretch. I am thinking if I go with a small it is cutting it close on size and will be too tight and a medium might be too big in areas. How do you know how much they will stretch if you buy them online? Or is that the risk you take?
 
I used a neosport rental for my OW cert and found that in order to get it over my hips and chest I needed a size that was too big in the waist, shoulders, and way too long for me (I'm only 5'4" but I have an athletic build so finding wetsuits that fit has been a challenge) My LDS also carries Henderson thermoprenes and I tried one on and purchased my 3mm from them. I found my 7mm jane and jacket online and ordered it in the same size as my 3mm. The size charts were pretty accurate (I ordered a john and jacket and a 8/7 semi-dry for my husband based solely off the size charts and both fit him perfectly.) I ordered the same size jane and jacket, and the jacket stretches just enough that it isn't a problem. If you are in between sizes, i would say get the smaller jane and the larger jacket since it has to go over it. I know most online reailers have a number that you can call and they can help you find the correct size, and you can always double check their return policy just incase. There is a henderson rep on SB as well so they might be able to help you out.
