Product Information

Full details

This Mountain Warehouse children's wetsuit is designed for young water sports enthusiasts, offering warmth and flexibility for aquatic activities. Its key benefit is providing freedom of movement in the water, thanks to its lightweight, quick-dry neoprene material and contoured fit. A potential caveat is that the 2.5mm thickness may be less suitable for extremely cold water conditions, focusing more on moderate temperatures.

FAQs

What is the wetsuit thickness?

The wetsuit has a thickness of 2.5mm.

Is this wetsuit suitable for very cold water?

The 2.5mm thickness is generally suitable for moderate water temperatures. For significantly colder conditions, a thicker wetsuit would be recommended.

How do I clean the wetsuit?

Rinse with fresh cold water after use and hand wash with mild soap only if necessary. Always air dry away from direct sunlight.

Does it have a key pocket?

Yes, it features a small key pocket.

What age range is this wetsuit for?

This wetsuit is designed for children. The specific size in this listing is 5-6 years.

Can this wetsuit be machine washed?

No, it is recommended to hand wash the wetsuit to preserve its material and features.

What does 'Contoured Fit' mean?

A contoured fit means the wetsuit is shaped to follow the natural lines of the body, providing a closer, more comfortable fit that enhances flexibility and reduces drag in the water.

Troubleshooting

Wetsuit is difficult to put on.

Ensure the wetsuit is completely dry. Use a little water or baby powder on the skin to help it slide on more easily. Check that the size is appropriate; a wetsuit should be snug but not restrictive.

Water leaking around the neck or seams.

Adjust the high-neck collar for a tighter fit. Ensure flat seams are lying flat against the skin. If leaks persist, the wetsuit may be the wrong size or worn.

Wetsuit feels too cold.

The 2.5mm thickness is best suited for moderate water temperatures. For colder conditions, consider a thicker wetsuit or additional thermal layers underneath.

Material has a strong smell.

Rinse the wetsuit thoroughly in fresh water. If the smell persists, wash with a wetsuit-specific cleaner or mild soap and air dry completely.

Care Instructions:
