Product Information

Full details

The Vissla 7 Seas 2-2 Short John is an ideal choice for surfers and water sports enthusiasts who prioritize mobility and warmth in moderate water conditions. Built from eco-friendly limestone-based neoprene, this wetsuit offers exceptional flexibility and a lightweight feel; however, the sleeveless short-leg design provides less thermal protection than full-length suits, making it best suited for warmer climates or summer sessions.

FAQs

Is this wetsuit suitable for winter surfing?

No, the 2-2 Short John is designed for moderate temperatures and is not intended for cold water conditions.

How do I ensure the right fit?

The suit should feel snug but not restrictive. Check the sizing chart for your height and chest measurements to ensure optimal performance.

Can I use this for swimming laps?

Yes, the high level of flexibility makes this an excellent option for open-water swimming in warmer temperatures.

Is the material eco-friendly?

Yes, it utilizes limestone-based neoprene and dope-dyed yarns to reduce the environmental footprint compared to traditional methods.

How should I store my wetsuit?

Store it on a wide-shouldered hanger in a cool, dark place. Avoid wire hangers which can stretch or damage the neoprene shoulders.

Troubleshooting

Water flushing into the suit

Ensure the shoulder entry flap is properly secured and flush against the body to create a tight seal.

Stiffness in neoprene

Rinse away salt and sand thoroughly. Accumulated salt can crystallize and stiffen the fabric over time.

Seam fraying

Check for loose threads after each session; if caught early, minor fraying can be trimmed, but avoid pulling on the stitching.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior flexibility for unrestricted paddling
  • Eco-friendly manufacturing processes and materials
  • Lightweight and soft feel against the skin
  • Streamlined, minimal seam design
  • Highly durable construction

Cons

  • Limited coverage compared to full-length wetsuits
  • Velcro entry can be less secure than chest-zip models
  • Not suitable for cold water temperatures

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting into the Vissla 7 Seas Short John is straightforward thanks to the Velcro shoulder entry. When putting the suit on, ensure the Velcro tab is aligned correctly to prevent it from rubbing against your skin. To maintain the suit's performance and longevity, always rinse the neoprene thoroughly with fresh, cool water immediately after use. Avoid using harsh soaps or detergents. When drying, keep the suit away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can damage the neoprene over time; instead, hang it in a cool, shaded area with good airflow. Never use a tumble dryer, as heat will destroy the adhesive in the seams.
