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.

Sizing

Available in sizes S, M, MT, L and XL. 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.
