• 3 mm: Temperate waters (21-24°C)
• 5 mm: Fresh water (16-21°C)

For those venturing into particularly cold waters or spending long hours in the water, a thicker wetsuit is necessary. The 7mm Full Neoprene Wetsuit offers maximum protection against the cold, ideal for diving in icy waters or winter water sports.

Caring for your wetsuit

To extend the life of your wetsuit, it's important to take proper care of it. Rinse it with fresh water after each use, dry it in the shade, and store it on a wide hanger to avoid wrinkles. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, which can degrade the neoprene.
