Choosing a spring suit

A spring suit covers the torso with short legs, and this one has long sleeves. A 2/2mm suit has the same 2mm thickness throughout and is a summer option for warmer days in the UK and trips abroad. Around the UK, sea temperatures are roughly 7 to 10°C in winter and 15 to 18°C in late summer, so a 5/4mm or 6/5mm suit (often with boots, gloves and a hood) suits winter, a 4/3mm spring and autumn, and a 3/2mm the summer months.

Sizing

Dark Slate is listed in size S and Black in sizes S and XL. Check your height and chest against the Vissla size chart before ordering.

Care

Rinse the suit thoroughly inside and out with fresh water after use and hang it to dry in a cool, shaded place out of direct sunlight. Avoid standing on the suit when changing.
