Product Information

Full details

The Sisstr 7 Seas 6/5 Hooded Chest Zip Wetsuit is designed for cold-water surfers who demand maximum warmth without sacrificing mobility. Built from premium Japanese limestone-based neoprene, this suit provides excellent thermal insulation and flexibility for long sessions, though the 6/5mm thickness can feel slightly more restrictive compared to thinner spring suits.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is integrated into the construction of the 7 Seas 6/5 suit to ensure maximum warmth and seal integrity.

What is the best way to clean the suit?

Rinse it thoroughly with fresh, cold water and air dry in the shade. Use a dedicated wetsuit cleaner if necessary.

Is limestone neoprene better than standard neoprene?

Yes, it is generally lighter, warmer, and has a smaller environmental footprint compared to traditional petroleum-based neoprene.

How should the wetsuit fit?

It should fit like a second skin without excessive bunching, but it should not be so tight that it restricts your breathing or paddle movement.

What does the 6/5 thickness mean?

The suit is 6mm thick in the core for maximum warmth and 5mm in the arms and legs for better flexibility.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty getting the suit over the shoulders

Ensure the chest zip is fully opened and use a plastic bag over your foot or hand to help glide through the openings more smoothly.

Water flushing through the neck

Verify that the internal neck gasket is folded correctly and that the hood is seated properly against your skin before pulling the chest flap over.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Sisstr wetsuit lasts, follow these care instructions:

  1. Rinsing: Always rinse your suit thoroughly with fresh, cold water after every session to remove salt, sand, and organic residue.
  2. Drying: Hang the suit in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight, as UV rays break down neoprene and lead to premature cracking.
  3. Storage: Use a wide-shoulder wetsuit hanger to prevent stretching or stress on the neoprene shoulders.
  4. Cleaning: If the suit develops an odor, use a mild, wetsuit-specific soap. Never use standard laundry detergent or bleach.
  5. Entry: When entering the suit, use care with your fingernails to avoid puncturing the neoprene material.
