Tips On Buying Your First Women’s Wetsuit

Martina from Sisters Of Stoke, a local women’s surfing group, gives you some advice on buying your first womens wetsuit.

Finding the Right Fit in a Plus Size Wetsuit

Getting the right fit is the most important part of choosing a plus size wetsuit. A well-fitting wetsuit should feel snug without restricting movement, helping to trap a thin layer of water that warms up and keeps you insulated.

Plus size wetsuits are designed with more room through the hips, chest and thighs to suit different body types, along with stretchier neoprene panels to improve comfort and flexibility. Look for suits with flexible linings, ergonomic panel layouts and easy-entry systems like chest zip or back zip designs to make getting in and out easier.

If you’re between sizes, prioritise comfort and mobility while still maintaining a close fit to maximise warmth in the water.

Choosing the Right Plus Size Wetsuit

The best plus size wetsuit for you depends on when and where you’ll be using it. Water temperatures in the UK vary throughout the year, so selecting the right thickness is key to staying comfortable and maintaining the right body temperature.

Look out for features like thermal linings, glued and blind-stitched seams, and wind-resistant panels for added warmth and durability.

Designed for Comfort, Flexibility & Confidence

Modern wetsuits are built to perform without compromising on comfort. High-stretch neoprene allows for natural movement in the water, while improved panel designs reduce restriction across key areas.

Whether you're surfing, paddleboarding, swimming, scuba diving or enjoying time at the beach, these wetsuits are designed to help you move freely and stay comfortable for longer water sports sessions.

Plus Size Wetsuit FAQs

Chest Zip vs Back Zip Wetsuits

Choosing the right entry system can make a big difference to comfort and ease of use.

  • Chest zip wetsuits – More flexible with better water sealing, ideal for performance and warmth
  • Back zip wetsuits – Easier to get on and off, making them a great everyday option

If ease of changing is a priority, a back zip wetsuit is often the best choice. For improved warmth and flexibility, chest zip designs are the preferred option.

Are plus-size wetsuits comfortable for surfing and swimming?

Yes. Modern plus-size wetsuits are designed to be both comfortable and performance-focused. They use soft, stretchy neoprene, ergonomic paneling and flexible seams so you can paddle, swim and move freely in the water. A properly fitted wetsuit should feel snug without restricting your breathing or movement, helping keep you warm while staying comfortable for longer sessions in the ocean.

What should a plus-size woman wear under a wetsuit?

Most women wear simple, fitted swimwear under a wetsuit, such as a bikini, one-piece swimsuit or sports bra with swim bottoms. These create a comfortable layer between your skin and the neoprene without adding bulk. Some people also wear rash vests, compression shorts or thermal layers for extra warmth and to reduce chafing during longer sessions. Loose clothing or cotton fabrics are not recommended because they can bunch up inside the wetsuit and cause discomfort.

How do you choose the right plus-size wetsuit?

When choosing a wetsuit, the most important factor is fit. A wetsuit should feel snug but not restrictive, allowing you to move freely while keeping a thin layer of water between your body and the neoprene to help retain heat. Look for stretchy materials, flexible seams and designs made specifically for women’s body shapes to ensure the best comfort and performance in the water.
