FAQs

What water temperature is this wetsuit best suited for?

This shorty wetsuit is designed for mild to warm water temperatures. It offers reliable warmth for conditions where a full wetsuit would be too hot.

How do I put on the wetsuit?

The wetsuit features a back-zip entry. Pull the cord to open the zipper, step into the suit, pull it up, and then pull the cord to close the zipper. Secure the neck velcro tab.

Is this wetsuit suitable for cold water diving?

No, this shorty wetsuit is specifically designed for warmer water conditions and will not provide adequate insulation for cold water activities.

What is the difference between the upper and lower panel materials?

The upper body uses 150% stretch X-Flex material for maximum flexibility, while the lower body uses D-Flex panels built for durability and abrasion resistance. Both have different internal linings for comfort and wear.

How should I clean my wetsuit?

Rinse thoroughly with fresh, cool water after each use. If a deeper clean is needed, hand wash gently with a mild wetsuit shampoo and cool water. Do not use a washing machine or harsh chemicals.

What does 'flatlock' seam mean?

Flatlock seams are stitched so that the edges of the fabric lie flat against each other. This provides a strong, flexible seam that is comfortable against the skin and suitable for warmer water wetsuits.

Can I machine dry my wetsuit?

No, never machine dry your wetsuit. High heat can damage the neoprene and affect its flexibility and insulation properties. Always air dry flat or on a wide hanger away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Wetsuit feels too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. A proper fit should be snug but not constricting. Try a larger size if discomfort persists.

Water flushing around the neck.

Adjust the Pro GlideSkin collar for a better seal. Ensure the back zipper is fully closed and the velcro tab is secured.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Rinse the zipper area with fresh water and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for wetsuits. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Wetsuit loses flexibility over time.

Ensure proper rinsing and drying after each use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can degrade the materials. Store properly when not in use.
