Product Information

Full details

The Vissla 7 Seas 5-4 Full Chest Zip is a high-performance wetsuit engineered for surfers who frequent cold water environments ranging from 51 to 58 degrees Fahrenheit (8 to 12 degrees Celsius). Built with durable nylon and an emphasis on warmth and stretch, it offers reliable thermal protection and mobility for everyday sessions. While the suit provides exceptional insulation, users should note that the thick 5/4mm neoprene configuration requires a period of adaptation for surfers accustomed to thinner, high-performance suits.

FAQs

What is the ideal water temperature for this suit?

This suit is designed for water temperatures ranging from 51 to 58 degrees Fahrenheit (8 to 12 degrees Celsius).

Is the chest zip harder to use than a back zip?

Yes, it can require more flexibility to get in and out of, but it offers superior warmth and movement.

Can I machine wash my Vissla wetsuit?

No, you should never machine wash or dry clean a wetsuit; always hand wash with fresh, cool water.

How should I store the wetsuit?

Store it on a wide, padded hanger in a cool, dark environment away from direct UV rays.

What material is the suit made of?

The exterior and structural panels are constructed from high-quality, durable nylon and neoprene.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty getting the suit on

Ensure your skin is dry or use a dedicated wetsuit slide lubricant to help slide limbs through the tight neoprene seals.

Water flushing through the neck

Check that the internal chest flap is laid flat and completely smoothed out against your chest before zipping the top layer.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal retention for cold water surfing
  • Water-tight chest entry system reduces flushing
  • High-quality nylon construction ensures long-term durability
  • Great balance between insulation and freedom of movement

Cons

  • May feel slightly restrictive initially compared to thinner wetsuits
  • Chest zip entry can be more challenging to get into than back-zip models
  • Specific temperature range limitation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Vissla 7 Seas wetsuit, always rinse it thoroughly with fresh water after every session to remove salt and debris. Hang the suit to dry on a wide, plastic hanger, avoiding direct sunlight which can cause the neoprene to degrade and become brittle. When entering the suit, use a gentle approach to pull the chest panel over your head to avoid overstretching the zipper assembly. Store the suit in a cool, dry place and never roll it tightly for extended periods to prevent permanent creases in the material.
