Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the material sustainable?

Yes, the product is constructed using limestone-based neoprene, which is a more environmentally conscious alternative to traditional petroleum-based neoprene.

Can I machine wash this item?

No, it is highly recommended to hand-wash the salopette with fresh water to preserve the integrity of the seams and neoprene material.

How do I determine the correct fit?

The salopette is designed for a close, ergonomic fit. Refer to standard athletic sizing charts, keeping in mind that the material will have high-stretch properties.

Does this provide buoyancy?

While neoprene naturally provides some buoyancy, this is not a certified life-saving device or personal flotation device.

Are the hems adjustable?

The salopette features adjustable length and non-slip hems to ensure a secure fit with your sailing boots or footwear.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty getting into the salopette

The fit is intentionally ergonomic and tight; ensure the skin is dry or use a light lubricant if necessary for easier entry.

Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull

Rinse the zipper track thoroughly to remove salt crystals and apply a dedicated wetsuit zipper lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-stretch material allows for unrestricted movement
  • Reinforced knee panels significantly increase durability
  • Flatlock seams minimize friction and skin irritation
  • Gusseted crotch design improves comfort during active use

Cons

  • Specific fit may be too tight for non-athletic use
  • Requires careful hand-washing to maintain material integrity
  • Limited to water-based activities due to specialized fabric

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your salopette, proper maintenance is essential. Always rinse the garment with fresh, cold water immediately after exposure to salt water to prevent mineral buildup and fabric degradation. When drying, keep the garment out of direct sunlight and avoid heat sources, as UV exposure and excessive heat can damage the neoprene fibers. Store the salopette flat or on a wide-shoulder hanger to maintain its shape. Ensure the zipper is fully closed and free of debris before storage to prevent jamming.
