Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about sizing, types, and care for your surf wetsuit.

How should a wetsuit fit?

A wetsuit should feel snug without restricting movement. There should be no baggy areas, but it shouldn’t pinch or cut off circulation.

What thickness wetsuit do I need?

It depends on water temperature. 3/2mm suits are great for moderate temps, 4/3mm or 5/4/3mm for cold water, and 2mm or less for warm water.

What's the difference between a full suit and spring suit?

Full suits cover your arms and legs completely and are used in colder water. Spring suits offer short arms or legs for warmer conditions.

Do kids need different wetsuits than adults?

Yes. Kids' wetsuits are designed with growing bodies in mind, offering extra flexibility, warmth, and easier entry/exit systems.

How do I take care of my wetsuit?

Rinse it with fresh water after every session, hang it to dry in the shade, and avoid hot water or machine washing.

Can I wear anything under a wetsuit?

Many surfers wear thin neoprene or rash guard layers underneath for comfort and additional warmth.

How long does a wetsuit last?

With proper care, a wetsuit can last 2–5 years depending on use, material quality, and how well it’s maintained.

Do wetsuits keep you completely dry?

No. A wetsuit traps a thin layer of water between your skin and the suit, which your body warms up for insulation.

Are there wetsuits designed for women?

Yes. Women’s wetsuits are tailored for different body shapes and often include ergonomic paneling and more style options.

What’s the benefit of zip-free wetsuits?

Zip-free designs offer more flexibility and less flushing, but can be harder to put on. They're popular among performance surfers.
