Product Description

Surfing suit 3mm neoprene materials Flatlock stitching.Wet suit, diving suit, surfing suit, Wetsuits are relatively inexpensive, simple, Neoprene suits that are typically used where the water temperature is between *0 and *5 ° C (*0 to *0 ° F). The foamed neoprene of the suit thermally insulates the wearer. Although water can enter the suit, a tight fitting suit prevents excessive heat loss because little of the water warmed inside the suit escapes from the suit. Proper fit is critical for warmth. A suit that is too loose will allow too much water to circulate over the diver's skin, robbing body heat. A suit that is too tight is very uncomfortable and can impair circulation at the neck, a very dangerous condition which can cause blackouts. For this reason, many divers choose to have wetsuits custom-tailored instead of buying them "off-the-rack. " Many companies offer this service and the cost is often comparable to an off-the-rack suit. Wetsuits are limited in their ability to provide warmth by two factors: The wearer is still exposed to some amount of water, and the insulating Neoprene can only be made to a certain thickness before it becomes impractical to don and wear. The thickest commercially-available wetsuits are usually 8mm thick. Other common thicknesses are 7mm, 5mm, 3mm, and 1mm. A 1mm suit provides very little warmth and is usually considered a dive skin, rather than a wetsuit.
