What temperature range is this wetsuit suitable for?
The SISSTR 7 Seas 5/4 is designed for cold water conditions between 8 and 12 degrees Celsius.
How should I clean the wetsuit?
Always rinse with fresh water after use and hang to dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight.
Is the material eco-friendly?
Yes, it is constructed from limestone-based neoprene and uses an eco-friendly, anti-fade dope-dyed fabric process.
What is the purpose of the Thermal Fever Fiber?
It serves as an insulating layer to trap body heat while also speeding up the drying process between uses.
How do I prevent the knee pads from wearing out?
The suit features upcycled Supratex abrasion-resistant knee pads, but you should avoid kneeling on sharp reef or concrete to maintain their condition.
Troubleshooting
Water flushing into the suit
Ensure the chest zip is fully pulled closed and the collar flap is tucked correctly. Check if the cuff seals are sitting flush against the skin.
Stiffness in the zipper
Rinse the zipper mechanism thoroughly with fresh water to remove dried salt and grit. Apply a dedicated wetsuit zipper wax if necessary.
Suit feels too tight or difficult to put on
Ensure the suit is completely dry before attempting to put it on, as moisture can create friction against the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your wetsuit, always rinse it thoroughly with fresh, cold water after every ocean session to remove salt, sand, and organic debris. When drying, avoid direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the limestone neoprene over time; instead, hang the suit on a thick-shouldered hanger in a cool, shaded, and well-ventilated area. Never machine wash or tumble dry your wetsuit. For storage, fold or hang carefully to avoid permanent creases in the neoprene. If you notice salt accumulation in the zipper, gently clean it with fresh water to maintain a smooth glide.
