FAQs
How do I know if the size 9-10 is the right fit?
The suit should feel very snug—almost tight—when dry. Once it enters the water, it will become easier to move in.
Can this be used in swimming pools?
Yes, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after use to remove chlorine, which can break down the neoprene.
How should I store the wetsuit during winter?
Store it flat or on a wide hanger in a cool, dry closet. Avoid folding it tightly for long periods as this can create permanent creases.
Does the suit provide UV protection?
Yes, the full-body coverage provides a physical barrier against the sun, reducing the need for sunscreen on covered areas.
Is the material machine washable?
No. Never put a wetsuit in a washing machine or tumble dryer, as this will destroy the integrity of the neoprene.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels too loose or allows too much water in
Check that the size 9-10 fits correctly; if water flushes through, the suit is likely too large for the current wearer.
Difficulty zipping up the back
Ensure the child is standing upright and pulling the suit tight against the skin to avoid catching the inner lining in the zip teeth.
Stiff or cracking neoprene
This is often caused by salt crystallization or sun damage; soak the suit in fresh water and use a dedicated wetsuit conditioner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Gul Full Wetsuit, follow these care instructions:
- Rinsing: Always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh, cold water after every use, especially after saltwater or chlorinated water exposure.
- Drying: Hang the wetsuit to dry in the shade. Direct sunlight can degrade the neoprene material over time.
- Storage: Store the suit in a cool, dry place on a wide hanger to prevent creases.
- Handling: When putting the suit on, use the pads of your fingers rather than your fingernails to avoid accidental tears in the neoprene surface.
- Fit Check: Ensure the zipper is fully closed and the neck seal is snug but comfortable before entering the water.
