He has to ask people to zip it up in the back for him. I kind of feel it would be awkward swimming in the pool with it on.
I've done it briefly if I have a new wet suit (or if it's been a long time since I wore the suit). I will only wear it for a couple hundred meters, I'm not sure, but I doubt Chlorine is good for a wet suit. If I really want to test it out, I will go to the ocean and/or a lake where I can do a longer swim.
