FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this wetsuit?
The primary purpose is to provide warmth and comfort for children during leisure activities in and around water, offering heat retention and quick-drying properties.
How do I ensure I buy the correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided by Mountain Warehouse and measure your child's chest, waist, and height. The wetsuit should be snug, like a second skin, allowing for movement without excessive restriction.
Can this wetsuit be used for serious watersports like surfing?
This wetsuit is suitable for general leisure and recreational water activities. For more demanding watersports in colder conditions, a thicker or specialized wetsuit might be more appropriate.
How do I wash the wetsuit?
Hand wash only in cool, fresh water with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly after every use and dry away from direct sunlight.
What does 'bonded neoprene' mean?
Bonded neoprene typically refers to layers of neoprene fused together, which can contribute to its lightweight and insulating properties while maintaining flexibility.
Is the printed design durable?
The printed design is intended for aesthetic appeal and typical use. To prolong its vibrancy, always follow the care instructions, especially regarding rinsing and avoiding direct heat when drying.
Can the key pocket hold a smartphone?
The key pocket is designed for small essentials like a single key. It is not large enough or waterproof enough to securely hold a smartphone.
Troubleshooting
Wetsuit feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure the correct size has been selected. Wetsuits should be snug but not overly constricting. Try a larger size if movement is significantly limited.
Water seeping in around the neck or seams.
Adjust the neck strap for a tighter fit. Ensure all seams are lying flat against the skin. For significant seepage, the fit may be incorrect, or the wetsuit may be showing signs of wear.
Wetsuit is slow to dry.
Ensure the wetsuit has been thoroughly rinsed with fresh water. Hang in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat. Check care label for specific drying recommendations.
Material feels stiff or brittle after use.
This can indicate damage from prolonged sun exposure or improper drying. Always rinse and dry according to care instructions, and store away from direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This wetsuit requires no specific setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure the child tries it on to confirm a proper fit.
Compatibility:
While designed for general water leisure, compatibility depends on water temperature and activity. For colder conditions, consider layering with appropriate thermal undergarments if space allows. Ensure the size is appropriate for the child's current measurements for optimal performance and comfort.
Care Instructions:
- Rinse After Use: Always rinse the wetsuit thoroughly with fresh, cold water after each use to remove salt, sand, and chlorine.
- Hand Wash Only: If washing is necessary, hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent specifically designed for neoprene or swimwear. Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Hang the wetsuit to dry on a padded hanger, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as prolonged exposure can damage the neoprene and fade the color.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding or creasing the wetsuit for extended periods, as this can cause permanent damage to the material. Roll it loosely if possible.
