FAQs

What age group are these wetsuit shorties for?

These wetsuit shorties are designed for children, with specific sizing available such as 7-8 and 9-10 years, catering to active youth.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Gul sizing guide provided with the product, focusing on chest, waist, and height measurements to ensure a snug, performance fit.

Can my child wear this in very cold water?

While the wetsuit provides insulation, it is best suited for moderate water temperatures. For very cold water, a full-length or thicker wetsuit may be more appropriate.

How should I clean the wetsuit?

Rinse with fresh, cold water after each use and hand wash with a mild neoprene-friendly detergent. Avoid machine washing, bleaching, and tumble drying.

What is the main benefit of the short legs?

The shortened limbs are designed to offer greater flexibility and freedom of movement, allowing children to play and swim more easily without restriction.

Is this wetsuit suitable for surfing?

Yes, the wetsuit provides protection and warmth for various water sports, including beginner surfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking.

Troubleshooting

Wetsuit feels too tight

Ensure the correct size has been selected. If it's a new wetsuit, it should feel snug but not restrictive. Consult the sizing guide and consider trying a larger size if significant discomfort persists.

Wetsuit is not providing enough warmth

Verify that the wetsuit fits snugly, as gaps can allow cold water to flush through. For colder conditions, consider pairing with a rash vest or a thicker wetsuit.

Material feels stiff after washing

Ensure the wetsuit is being dried flat away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid using harsh detergents. A gentle rinse and air dry should maintain flexibility.
