What Wetsuit Is Best For Open Water Swimming?

Open water swimming wetsuits are designed to improve buoyancy, reduce drag and maximise shoulder flexibility. They are typically smoother and more streamlined than surfing wetsuits.

Can I Use A Surf Wetsuit For Triathlon Or Swimming?

A surf wetsuit can work for casual swimming, but triathlon and swimming wetsuits are specifically designed for performance, flexibility and efficient movement in the water.

What Thickness Wetsuit Do I Need?

The right wetsuit thickness depends on water temperature, activity level and personal preference. Colder UK winter conditions often require 5/4mm wetsuits, while warmer summer conditions may suit 3/2mm or thinner options.

Do I Need Wetsuit Accessories In Cold Water?

Accessories like wetsuit boots, gloves and hoods can help reduce heat loss in cold conditions, improving comfort and extending time in the water during winter sessions.
