Vissla Men's 7 Seas Comp 2/2mm Chest Zip Wetsuit, Full Suit

The Vissla 7 Seas Comp 2/2mm is a men's chest zip full wetsuit for summer surfing, which Vissla describes as the most flexible suit in its 7 Seas range. It uses less interior tape than other 7 Seas suits, keeping seam tape to the crotch, knees and stress points for more stretch.

Choosing a thickness

The first number is the torso thickness in millimetres, the second the arms and legs. UK seas are roughly 7 to 10°C in winter and 15 to 18°C in late summer, so 5/4mm or 6/5mm (often with boots, gloves and a hood) suits winter, 4/3mm spring and autumn, and 3/2mm summer.

A 2/2mm full suit sits below a 3/2mm, so it suits the warmest UK days and summer trips abroad.

Sizing

Available in sizes S, MS, M, MT, L and XL. MS is a short fit, MT is a tall fit of the base size. Check the Vissla size chart for height, weight and chest measurements before you order.

Care

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