If your body measurements are between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the larger size.

Often we are asked in which temperatures and weather conditions it is best to use which wetsuit with which neoprene thickness. We are also asked how neoprene shoes, neoprene gloves or neoprene caps should be used. For this purpose, we have created a rough guideline below, which is based on the specifications of the manufacturer Xcel.
We want to give you a short overview why you should clean your wetsuit regularly and thoroughly and how to clean it best.
In addition to the hygiene factor, regular care also has an effect on the durability of the neoprene. If you simply hang your wetsuit out to dry in the sun after a session on the water and don't rinse out the salt water and dirt thoroughly, the neoprene can quickly become brittle and cracked. In general, we advise you not to hang your neo directly in the sun.
A little tip when putting on the wetsuit: Make sure your body is dry, then it will be much easier to put on. Neoprene sticks to wet skin.
When you have finished your session, you should rinse the wetsuit directly with clean water. Then turn it inside out and let it dry in a shady and airy place. When the wetsuit is dry, you can turn it inside out and hang it on a sturdy hanger.
Attention: Do not use the spin cycle under any circumstances!
An alternative to the washing machine is the bathtub. Simply run a small bath at 30°C and add some detergent, shower gel or dishwashing liquid and let the wetsuit soak. Then rinse thoroughly again.
Small tip: There are also great neoprene cleaners, e.g. from Mystic.

How should I clean and care for my wetsuit?
Care begins with careful handling of the wetsuit. When putting on your wetsuit, you should not try to force your way into it, as this puts too much strain on the seams. Hectic and fast movements also put a lot of stress on the seams, so they could tear.A little tip when putting on the wetsuit: Make sure your body is dry, then it will be much easier to put on.

Can I wash my wetsuit in the washing machine?
Yes, that is no problem. Just turn it inside out and close the zipper. The wool programme or the gentle wash cycle at a maximum of 30°C is best. We recommend using a mild detergent.
