Sizing for this wetsuit is based on UK women's dress sizes. It is crucial to measure your bust, waist, and hips and compare them to the brand's specific size chart. A snug fit is essential for performance and warmth, but it should not restrict breathing or circulation.
The primary benefit is maximum thermal insulation and protection. The full-length design covers the torso, arms, and legs, significantly reducing heat loss in cooler water and providing a barrier against sun, wind, and minor abrasions.
While suitable for surface watersports, this wetsuit is generally designed for activities like surfing or paddleboarding. For scuba diving, especially in colder waters, a thicker wetsuit or a drysuit is typically recommended for adequate thermal protection and durability.
It's best to rinse your wetsuit with fresh water after every use. A more thorough wash with a mild wetsuit shampoo is recommended periodically, especially if the suit develops an odor or after prolonged use in chlorinated or heavily salted water.
If your wetsuit develops an odor, hand wash it gently with a specialized wetsuit shampoo or a very mild, non-detergent soap in cool water. Ensure it is thoroughly rinsed and dried completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area. For persistent odors, you can try soaking it in a solution of water and a small amount of baking soda, followed by a thorough rinse.
Yes, you can wear it in a swimming pool, but be aware that chlorine can degrade neoprene over time. Always rinse the wetsuit thoroughly with fresh water immediately after swimming in a chlorinated pool to prolong its lifespan.
Ensure you are using the correct size. Use a lubricant (mild soap and water solution or wetsuit lube) on your skin and the inside of the wetsuit. Pull on gradually, smoothing the fabric as you go, and avoid snagging with fingernails.
Check for areas where water might be flushing excessively, indicating a poor fit. Ensure all seals (wrists, ankles, neck) are snug. Consider the water temperature; this wetsuit is for moderate conditions and may require a thicker suit or thermal layers for very cold water.
This can happen due to improper care, such as prolonged exposure to sunlight or harsh chemicals. Always rinse thoroughly and dry in shade. Consider using a neoprene protectant or conditioner if the material becomes dry.
Ensure the wetsuit fits correctly without being too tight in areas that cause friction. A rash vest worn underneath can provide an additional layer of protection against chafing.
Setup: This is a pull-on wetsuit. Ensure you have adequate lubrication (like a mild soap and water solution, or specialized wetsuit lubricant) if the fit is particularly snug. Step into the suit and pull it up gradually, ensuring no excessive force is applied to any single point.
Compatibility: Designed for general watersports. It is compatible with various activities like surfing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and open-water swimming. Ensure the size is correct for optimal performance.
