FAQs

What is the primary material used?

The salopette is constructed from high-stretch, limestone-based neoprene.

Can I machine wash these?

No, machine washing can damage the neoprene and flatlock seams. Hand wash with fresh water only.

Are these suitable for winter sailing?

They provide thermal benefits, but for extreme cold, they should be layered with appropriate thermal base garments.

How do I fix the length?

The garment features an adjustable length system; consult the internal adjustment points to tailor the fit to your height.

Why use limestone-based neoprene?

It is a more sustainable alternative to petroleum-based neoprene and offers superior flexibility and durability for watersports.

Troubleshooting

Hem riding up during movement

Ensure the skin is clean and free of oils or sunscreen before wearing; verify that the internal non-slip grip is correctly positioned against the skin.

Fabric irritation after long use

Ensure the garment is fitted correctly and rinse thoroughly after each use to remove salt crystals which can cause abrasion.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional mobility due to high-stretch design
  • Reinforced knees offer excellent durability for deck work
  • Flatlock seams prevent chafing during long sessions
  • Customizable fit with adjustable length
  • Professional-grade construction tested by elite athletes

Cons

  • Neoprene requires more delicate care than standard synthetic trousers
  • Not intended for extreme cold-weather insulation without layering
  • Limited to specific watersport applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, utilize the adjustable length feature before heading out on the water. Ensure the non-slip cuffs are pulled taut against the skin for optimal grip. For care, always rinse the salopette with fresh, cold water immediately after salt-water exposure to prevent mineral buildup and degradation of the neoprene. Hang the garment inside out to dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can damage the elasticity of the fabric over time. Avoid using standard detergents or drying in a machine, as these can compromise the structural integrity of the seams and the neoprene foam.
