FAQs

What temperature range is this suit designed for?

This suit is designed for cold water conditions, specifically between 44 and 53° F (8 - 12° C).

How do I properly dry my wetsuit?

Hang your wetsuit inside out first, then right side out, in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.

Can I use a washing machine to clean the suit?

No, never machine wash, tumble dry, or iron your wetsuit, as these will permanently damage the neoprene and seams.

What is the benefit of limestone neoprene?

Limestone neoprene is more environmentally friendly than petroleum-based neoprene and offers better heat retention and elasticity.

Does the suit include a key pocket?

Yes, it features a secure key cord for safe storage of your vehicle or house key.

Why is it important to use a wide hanger?

Using a thin wire hanger can stretch the shoulder neoprene, causing the suit to lose its shape and fit over time.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty getting into the chest-zip entry

Ensure the chest panel is fully opened and apply a small amount of water to the interior of the neck opening to help it slide over your shoulders.

Water flushing through the neck area

Check that the glideskin seal is lying flat against your skin without any hair or suit fabric tucked underneath it.

Stiff or brittle neoprene

This is often a result of salt build-up or sun exposure; ensure you are rinsing thoroughly with fresh water and drying away from heat sources.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal insulation for cold water conditions
  • High-flexibility material allows for unrestricted paddling
  • Eco-friendly dope-dyed fabric construction
  • Secure chest-zip entry prevents flushing
  • Quick-drying interior lining

Cons

  • Requires strictly shaded drying to avoid sun damage
  • More challenging to put on than traditional back-zip suits
  • Specific temperature range limitation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your SISSTR wetsuit, ensure you put it on carefully to avoid snagging the neoprene with fingernails or jewelry. After each use, rinse the suit thoroughly inside and out with fresh, cool water to remove salt, sand, and organic residue. Always hang the suit in a shaded area; never leave it in direct sunlight, as UV rays will degrade the neoprene and weaken the adhesive in the seams. Store the suit on a wide, plastic wetsuit hanger to prevent stretching of the shoulder areas. Do not use chemical detergents or bleaching agents, as these can compromise the integrity of the specialized lining and outer fabric.
