Product Information
Full details
The Gul Wetsuit Shorties are designed for water sports enthusiasts who require a balance of thermal protection and unrestricted mobility during warm-water sessions. These suits provide a snug, flexible fit that keeps your core warm while keeping your limbs free for swimming, surfing, or paddleboarding. While they excel in warmer temperatures, they do not provide the full-body coverage needed for cold-water environments, making them a specialized choice for seasonal use.

FAQs
Are these wetsuits suitable for winter swimming?
No, these are shorties designed for warm-water use and do not provide the coverage required for cold water.
How should the wetsuit fit?
A wetsuit should fit like a second skin without being overly restrictive. It should be snug, with no loose pockets of fabric.
Can I use this for scuba diving?
Yes, it is suitable for warm-water tropical diving where thermal protection for the core is the primary concern.
Does this provide UV protection?
The material covers the core, but limb areas remain exposed to the sun; ensure you apply sunscreen to exposed skin.
How do I clean the zipper?
Rinse it with fresh water and remove any sand particles with a soft-bristled brush.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping the back zipper
Ensure the suit is pulled up high enough at the torso and use the zipper pull cord at a perpendicular angle to the zipper track.
Water flushing in the neck area
Check that the back zip flap is properly smoothed down and the velcro neck closure is tightened securely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gul Wetsuit maintains its elasticity and performance, follow these care steps:
- Rinsing: Always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh water after every use to remove salt, sand, and chlorine.
- Drying: Hang the suit on a wide, plastic hanger in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the material and cause the neoprene to become brittle.
- Storage: Store the suit flat or on a dedicated wetsuit hanger. Avoid using wire hangers, which can damage the shoulder material.
- Zipper Maintenance: Keep the zipper clean and free of sand to prevent snagging. If the zipper feels stiff, use a dedicated wax or lubricant for wetsuit zippers.
