Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter surfing?

No, at 2mm thickness, this jacket is designed for temperate conditions and will not provide adequate warmth for cold or winter water temperatures.

How do I dry the jacket properly?

Hang the jacket on a wide hanger in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight as it breaks down the neoprene material.

Can I use this for swimming or diving?

While it can be used for various water activities, it is specifically engineered for the range of motion required for surfing.

What is the benefit of limestone neoprene?

Limestone neoprene is more environmentally friendly than petroleum-based alternatives, offers higher heat retention, and provides superior flexibility and a lighter weight.

How should I store the jacket long-term?

Store the jacket on a wide, padded hanger in a cool, dark closet to avoid creasing and UV degradation.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close

Check for salt crystallization or sand in the zipper teeth. Rinse the zipper with fresh water and use a dedicated wetsuit zipper wax if necessary.

Jacket riding up during surfing

Ensure the boardshort compatible secure cord is properly looped through the drawstring or waistband of your boardshorts.

Premature wear on seams

Avoid overstretching the fabric when putting on the jacket and ensure you are not pulling the neoprene with your fingernails.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-stretch material allows for natural range of motion
  • Environmentally friendly lamination and dyeing processes
  • Reliable YKK zipper longevity
  • Effective water sealing due to specialized stitching
  • Secure fit prevents shifting while surfing

Cons

  • Limited thermal protection due to 2mm thickness
  • Not intended for extreme cold weather use
  • Requires careful rinsing to maintain neoprene integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Vissla jacket, always rinse it thoroughly with clean, fresh water after every use to remove salt and mineral deposits. Avoid wringing out the neoprene, as this can damage the internal structure of the foam. When drying, keep the jacket out of direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the neoprene over time; instead, hang it on a wide, padded hanger in a cool, shaded, and well-ventilated area. Store it flat or on a hanger to prevent permanent creases in the material.
