FAQs

Can I use this for my triathlon training?

No, this wetsuit is designed for leisure use and lacks the hydrodynamic properties and material thickness required for triathlons.

How do I wash the suit?

Hand wash in cool, fresh water. Do not tumble dry, iron, or use bleach, as these will damage the fabric.

Does it provide sun protection?

While the fabric covers part of your body, it is not a substitute for sunscreen. Always apply sun protection to exposed skin.

Is it suitable for scuba diving?

No, this suit is not designed for the depths or thermal requirements of scuba diving.

What should I do if the zip gets stuck?

Gently clean the zipper teeth with fresh water and a soft brush. Once dry, ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth before trying again.

Can I wear this in a chlorinated pool?

Yes, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after leaving the pool to prevent the chlorine from degrading the material.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty zipping the suit up.

Ensure the suit is pulled up fully and aligned correctly on your torso before attempting to zip. If it continues to stick, check for sand or salt build-up in the zip track.

Feeling chafing or skin irritation.

The suit may be slightly too large or you may be lacking an underlayer. Wear a rash vest underneath to create a smooth barrier between your skin and the wetsuit seams.

Water feeling too cold.

This is a shorty wetsuit with no sleeves, meaning it is not designed for extreme cold. Consider adding a neoprene top or moving to a full-length suit for colder water conditions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent freedom of movement for the arms
  • Effective heat retention for temperate water conditions
  • Easy to put on and remove with the pull zip system
  • Durable flat lock stitching increases garment longevity

Cons

  • Not intended for long-distance or professional swimming
  • Requires a rash vest to prevent chafing during extended wear
  • Limited coverage compared to full-length wetsuits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your wetsuit maintains its integrity, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fitting: The suit should be snug but not restrictive. Check that the zip pulls up smoothly without tension.
  2. Layering: We highly recommend wearing a thin rash vest underneath. This prevents chafing against the skin and adds a layer of comfort.
  3. Rinsing: Always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh, cold water after every use to remove salt or chlorine residue.
  4. Drying: Hang the suit on a plastic hanger in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the polyester fibers and cause the material to lose its elasticity.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place once completely dry to prevent mold or odors.
