FAQs

What is the wetsuit thickness?

The wetsuit has a thickness of 2.5mm, providing a balance of flexibility and thermal insulation.

Is this wetsuit suitable for very cold water?

The 2.5mm neoprene offers some heat retention, making it suitable for moderate water temperatures. For very cold conditions, a thicker wetsuit or additional thermal layers may be necessary.

How do I clean the wetsuit?

Rinse with fresh, cold water after each use. Hand wash with a mild, neoprene-safe soap if needed. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Can this wetsuit be worn for extended periods out of the water?

While the quick-dry fabric helps, the wetsuit is primarily designed for water activities. It offers limited insulation for prolonged wear in dry, cool environments.

What does 'Freedom of Movement' mean in this context?

It means the design and material allow for a wide range of motion, so the wearer can move their arms, legs, and torso freely without restriction, which is important for swimming and other water sports.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The wetsuit should fit snugly like a second skin without being uncomfortably tight. There should be no significant bunching of material, especially in the torso and limbs. Check the size guide provided by Mountain Warehouse.

Does the wetsuit offer UV protection?

While the material covers the skin, it is not specifically rated as a UV protection garment. Sunscreen should still be used on exposed skin.

Troubleshooting

Wetsuit is difficult to put on.

Ensure the wetsuit is completely dry. Using a small amount of water or a specific wetsuit lubricant on the skin can help. Make sure the size is correct.

Water flushing around the neck.

Adjust the high-neck fastening to be tighter. Ensure no hair is caught in the seal. If the issue persists, the neck may be too large for the wearer.

Material feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild, neoprene-safe soap and rinsing thoroughly. Avoid drying in direct sunlight. Allow to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area.

Seams are causing irritation.

The flat seams are designed to minimize irritation. Ensure the wetsuit fits snugly but not too tightly. If irritation persists, consider the fit or explore alternative models with different seam constructions.

Care Instructions:
