Freedom of movement
The 2 mm neoprene on the arms lets you move your shoulders freely.
Easy dressing
A back zipper and ultra-stretchy material make it easy to put on.
Recommendations for use:
To prevent chafing around the neck and other areas, apply petroleum jelly or a mixture of 50% petroleum jelly and 50% lanolin.
Fitting advice:
Glideskin Neoprene is very flexible and stretchy, but also more fragile. Don’t use your fingernails or pull too hard when putting on this wetsuit. Put your arms and legs in gradually.
Component

What are the different types of neoprene: standard and glideskin?
Neoprene is made up of 3 layers: - Inner layer: fabric. - Middle layer: foam. - Outer layer: standard or glideskin fabric. Standard neoprene has a woven fabric outer layer. This material is very tough but soaks up water and is more difficult to repair. Glideskin neoprene has a polymer outer layer. This has the benefit of being more hydrodynamic and also waterproof. It is more fragile but is easily repaired with neoprene glue.
What is the difference between a surfing wetsuit and an open water swimming wetsuit?
Surfing wetsuits are made from standard neoprene, with a woven fabric outer layer. This material is very tough but soaks up water. It is suitable for surfing. Open water swimming wetsuits are made partly or entirely from glideskin neoprene. This waterproof material is more hydrodynamic. It is also more fragile. Open water swimming wetsuits are therefore strictly designed for swimming
The feeling of wearing a neoprene wetsuit. Is this normal?
If you’re enjoying your first open water sessions with a wetsuit, it's completely normal to feel it more or differently in your muscles. This is because the sleeves make the arms more buoyant, which means that you have to use "extra" force to plunge your arm into the water. This sensation should dissipate after a few sessions.
How to get into a wetsuit
Getting into a neoprene wetsuit may seem like mission impossible, especially for those who have never used one. Neoprene wetsuits need to have a tight fit, as this is what prevents water from getting inside. A wetsuit that is too big will expose you to the cold. It’s also more likely to irritate your skin as you move through the water.

Good design, stunning exterior. Warm enough for outdoor swimming.Comfortable. Not sure about the sizing, 16 feels is more 14 or even 12 - in the upper part. Tight in the upper body with good fit below the waist. Suggest ordering different sizes or try in store before buying. O
therwise - great. Easy to put on, warm, sleek.

Utilisée pour l’apnée en piscine et la nage en eau libre. Une bonne combi pour un prix très raisonnable, avec une bonne glisse et permettant une bonne liberté de mouvement. Pas d’accrocs malgré une utilisation très régulière (avec ceinture de lestage etc). Seul point d’atten
tion : elle taille petit. Je l’ai prise 1 taille au-dessus en suivant les avis déjà postés et c’est parfait.

Personnellement combi très dur, cela bloque les épaules - C’est un bon prix certes et cela garde chaud mais je préfère nager avec la combi de surf ou une orca que celle ci

j'ai pris du 36 pour 1m57 et c'est bien trop petit ! J'espère que le retour sera bon et que le 38 ira. Prendre donc une taille au dessus !
