FAQs
Is this wetsuit safe for non-swimmers?
No. This wetsuit is for leisure use and provides no buoyancy or lifesaving capabilities. Non-swimmers must be supervised at all times.
Can I use this for scuba diving?
No, this garment is not designed for diving or extreme sporting activities.
How do I clean my wetsuit?
Rinse with fresh, cool water after every use and hang it to dry in the shade.
What is the material composition?
The suit is made from durable, quick-drying polyester.
Does the suit provide sun protection?
While the coverage helps, you should always apply sunblock to exposed skin, especially during long periods on the water.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels too loose or cold
Ensure the neck adjustment is tightened correctly and verify that the size is appropriate for the wearer's current build.
Difficulty getting the suit on
Ensure the suit is completely dry before putting it on; wet fabric clings to the skin, making it harder to maneuver into.
Material showing signs of wear
Regularly rinse with fresh water to prevent salt crystals from causing friction damage to the polyester fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta wetsuit, proper maintenance is essential. Always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh, cool water after each use in salt or chlorinated water to remove debris and chemical buildup. Hang the suit to air dry inside out in a shaded, well-ventilated area, avoiding direct sunlight which can degrade the fabric. When putting on the suit, ensure the neck is adjusted to a comfortable position that prevents chaffing. Always check the size guide to ensure a snug fit, as a suit that is too loose will not retain warmth effectively.
