Great coat! Well made, and very warm. Customer service was Easy to reach for a sizing question , and I received my coat very quickly!
Brian K.
Fit was perfect and it is definitely warm enough!

LOVE these parkas! We use them to warm up after swimming in the SF Bay - highly recommend! We got a size too big to have ample space to wiggle a swimsuit off underneath. For men, this might not be as necessary. They're also doubling as a robe to use around the house :)

Absolutely great for pre-/post- winter sessions.

Several friends have this overcoat, which is how I came to buy one. The fit is not good: totally wrong at the shoulder. I would have returned it to any other store, but then I read the small print: no returns for size! I am 5’9” and 150, so I fit on both S and M charts... typically I wear M sizes, but this is a big medium.

I'm 6'1". I initially ordered the XL off Amazon, but it was too big. But the large is great... enough room to change in without feeling like it's a tent. This will keep me nice and toasty when I'm wet and the cold winds are blowing. Unfortunately, spring has since come and I haven't needed to use it. I'll update this review when that happens!

Actually haven’t used it yet. Diving season is just around the corner and I can t wait to try it out.

I have not used it in the water yet (our SCUBA trip is in June; if we are all able to travel again then). I always get really cold in water and this will FOR SURE help. I wore it around the house and it felt like a fabulously cozy, warm blanket. Once our gym opens up again I will take it with me to use when I get out of pool after swimming because I am always freezing after swimming. I can envision taking it to the beach (when I visit my sis and her fam in So. Cal again) and wearing it just for cozy warmth while I watch the sunset and watch the waves come in. It will help so I don't get chilled with the ocean evening breeze. I think this is a great product. Glad it is long and covers much of my body. Anyone who wants to order please use the measurements guide provided on the website. I was going to just order M or L, but my measurements said SMALL. Wow. Gotta use those measurements to prevent having to return wrong size.

This is a very warm boat coat! Perfect for those chilly days of diving.

Out here in Crystal River, Florida viewing the manatees in warmth and style! there is NO OTHER WAY to enjoy frigid winter swims than in this parka! It's also GREAT for those of us who enjoy a quick dip in the Florida Springs! It's so waterproof, I can drive home in my wetsuit without getting the car seat wet!

I love this surf fur. I not only use it for Scuba diving in old weather but I use it when I get out of my swim spa in the winter. I never get cold. I did get a 2xl which is a bit large but I have plenty of room when wearing my dive gear.
HT D.
Call me crazy but the dive parka makes awesome blanket.
Tom M.
I wear medium-long clothing (6'2) and a medium fits perfect; very happy with the purchase.
Kelly S.
Love the coat! As Florida residents, we get cold easily when out on the water. The coats were recommended to us by a scuba boat captain. They do keep us toasty warm!

this pic is before Christmas. As of today everyone has one!

I bought this very well made Parka to keep me warm to and from pool deck when I swim laps. I am 74 and have turned into the tin man because I have so much arthritis and the cold wind really makes me hurt. The pool where I swim is 80 to 82; so perfect, but so cold when I get out and sometimes the showers are cold! Then I just drive home to my hot shower wearing my SurfFur over my swim suit. Perfect. I wear it to the pool and when I get out to the locker room. I am swimming more this winter. Because I have arthritis swimming is the best for me and now I know I am going to be warm and not in pain when I get out. It is amazing how quickly I get warm in this coat; it is almost immediate. Love It. The hood is great for wet hair. I just take it off and turn it inside out and hang it and it drys and is ready to go next morning.

High quality, functional garment. Very nice to wear on the colder days before and after paddling. I wear mine until the moment I’m ready to launch my boat. My muscles are warmer at the start. Sure makes a winter paddle more comfortable and enjoyable. Afterwards it is great to wear, I be warm even if it’s windy.
MICHAEL L.
Bought for my wife. She loves it!
Ron R.
I bought a S for my wife for Christmas. She’s 5’4” and skinny-great size for her. She can change clothes with it buttoned up and have her privacy’s while staying warm. Costumer service was great and fast shipping help assure that my wife got it in time. She loves it, super warm and comfortable. Thanks
Judith A.
Great product. No issues with questions or delivery. I’ve shared this experience with many people.
David M.
The Surf Fur waterproof parka is a very well made and functional garment. During the November thru Feb season I wear my parka both to and from the water. So before paddling I’m wearing my parka taking the surf ski off the car and getting ready to launch. I’m not chilled when I start paddling. As soon as I get my boat out of the water I put on my parka. So nice to be warm and snug rather than freezing wrapped in a wet towel.
Note: sizes are generous so you can change clothes underneath. I’m 6’2” and 165, a medium is perfect for me
Kelly S.
Great experience with the customer service team. We'll be proud to wear our Surf-fur water parkas as a family. Fantastic merchandise and prompt, courteous service is hard to beat!
Kellen H.
I bought one of these waterparkas for kitesurfing in colder temps, but I'm seriously considering buying a 2nd one just to have and wear as I please.
It has exceeded my expectations thoroughly. It has kept me warm and dry during high winds, cold temps and sideways rain all while remaining as comfortable as a bath robe. No more worrying about changing out of a wet wetsuit outdoors during those conditions to drive home either.
Roger H.
Unfortunately, I returned mine due to high brokerage fees. The next time I order I will find a way to ship it within the States. I did get a chance to try one on that a friend had and it was comfortable and fit well, a great parka.
Donna C.
I bought the surf fur jacket for a dive trip that included multiple night dives with boat trips to and from and an hour long surface interval between dives. It was wonderful to snuggle down inside the jacket - especially on the boat ride back at 11pm!
Jung J.
Thank you very much for receiving the prize very quickly. And the product is warm and soft and good. Thanks to this product, I am happy to have a warm winter. I will enjoy surfing with the The Original Waterparka during the winter. I hope your business thrives. I'll wear it. Thank you very much! ♥
Greg Y.
I’m a long way from surf, but I use it on 45F mornings at the pool here in Sedona! Pretty awesome.
Kathryn B.
My kids gave me a surf fur 2 years ago after I froze on a dive trip in October. Since then my daughter borrowed it when ever she went on a trip if their was a chance of it being cold so I decided it was time to get her her own!
Ben T.
So warm and comfortable. I have only used it once, but I know it will get used a lot more as the temperature drops here in the Great Lakes. I can see just wrapping up in the Surf-fur while lounging around in the house on a cold day.
Jonathan B.
Perfect for pre and post scuba diving warming sessions, so warm and fuzzy.
Tom H.
Cant beat it for the money, runs a little big so go a size down
Caroline A.
Love my new Surf-fur. I bought an XS which fits great on my 5’4” 150 lb frame. Looks like I’ll have enough room to change under it too. Decided to buy one after a friend lent me her’s after our outrigger race. I was wet and shivering but instantly felt warm with the Surf-fur on. I stayed for hours at the BBQ on the beach in wet clothes and was comfortable! Keeps my car seat dry too. Love it!
Jay H.
5 day trip from San Diego to Catalina Island. My wife and I both wore our long Surf Fur coats while offshore to stay warm, comfortable and dry. Great product!
Sheryl S.
It was super warm and wonderful for a live-a-board dive trip in the Socorro Islands.
Marisol M.
Love it Love it Love it. It feels great it looks great and I love that it is longer. I got the Small even though I'm 5'1 and it fits great. Definitely getting one for my husband soon.
Jerry Z.
Great investment! Use it all year. I am a gear head and it’s a just have. I take it everywhere.
Meredith T.
The best boat coat!!
Lani A.
I bought the parka for when I get out of the pool in the winter (or whenever it is cold). And it works great. A tiny chill and then the warmth of the parka. Love it. I even wore it to my granddaughters swim meet. I am always cold, but not when I wore the surfer. I love it! Well worth the money.
James H.
Great for coming off the water in kayak gear and staying warm while loading the boats. Also great for lounging by the fire, taking the dogs out for quick walk in the night and Staying warm while shoveling snow!
Zoe N.
When looking for a post swimming jacket, a client recommended snaps, when it's cold, the hands don't work well. I purchased the jacket so I was able to get in and out of the water easily when I'm coaching my triathlon group at the pool.
I got to use it the 1st time post open water swim this week. It was awesome!! Water temps were sub 50, getting out of the water, and out of my wetsuit was interesting. And although it was my 1st change under it, I expect it will become easier for me with additional practice.
I love my Surf Fur, and would recommend it to everyone!

My husband and I purchased these for our dive surface intervals, and they did not disappoint. They kept us warm and dry between dives. We were the envy of all the divers on the boat!! We have no regrets about buying these, and would strongly recommend! And special thanks to Zenon and Cindy for getting our jackets to us so quickly!!
