Just Received Your Wetsuit? Start Here.

Breaking Your Wetsuit In
A brand new wetsuit requires a break in phase, so we recommend you try your wetsuit in the water first. Do not panic if your wetsuit feels tight on first wear.
The more you utilize the wetsuit, you will notice that it molds to your body after the first few sessions. It will also be easier to slip in and out of it.

Wetsuit Care
To prolong the lifetime of your wetsuit, rinse it with fresh water after every session. A thorough rinse helps remove any debris and remove salt water from the wetsuit.
After the rinse, hang the wetsuit over the waist and never the shoulders. Hanging a wetsuit by the shoulders can stretch out the neoprene.
Lastly, make sure wherever you dry your wetsuit is out of direct sunlight. Hanging a wetsuit in direct sunlight can damage and fade the neoprene.
