Product Information

Full details

The Mountain Warehouse Sleeveless Shorty Wetsuit is designed for water sports enthusiasts seeking a balance of thermal protection and freedom of movement. Ideal for swimmers, paddleboarders, and casual water-users, this suit offers a comfortable fit with a stylish aesthetic; however, the sleeveless design makes it less suitable for extremely cold open-water conditions compared to full-sleeve alternatives.

FAQs

Is this wetsuit suitable for winter swimming?

No, this is a shorty, sleeveless wetsuit designed for warmer water conditions. It does not provide enough coverage for cold-water winter swimming.

How should the wetsuit fit?

It should fit like a second skin without being overly restrictive. It needs to be snug to minimize water circulation inside the suit.

Can I use this for surfing?

Yes, it is suitable for surfing in warmer climates, though keep in mind the lack of arm coverage offers less protection against board wax abrasion.

What is the material composition?

The suit is crafted from a durable polyester blend designed for water sports longevity.

How do I dry it properly?

Always hang it in the shade in a well-ventilated area. Do not use direct heat or sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty zipping up

Ensure the suit is pulled up high and snug against the crotch area before pulling the zipper; check for fabric bunching under the pull-zip path.

Chafing at the neck

Apply a sports-grade anti-chafing balm to the neck area before wearing if you have highly sensitive skin.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unrestricted arm movement for swimming and paddling
  • High-quality flat lock seams prevent skin irritation
  • Easy to put on and remove with the pull zip
  • Durable construction suitable for frequent use

Cons

  • Provides less thermal insulation than full-sleeve wetsuits
  • Not intended for extreme cold-water environments
  • Specific to water sports; not designed for heavy-duty diving

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your wetsuit, always rinse it with fresh, cool water after every use, especially after swimming in salt or chlorinated water. Avoid using harsh detergents or tumble dryers, as these can break down the polyester fibers and neoprene-like material properties. Dry the suit flat in a shaded, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, which can cause the material to become brittle over time. When storing, hang the suit on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain its shape, rather than folding it, which may create permanent creases.
