How does a wetsuit work?
A wetsuit creates a barrier against the elements utilizing the insulating properties of closed cell neoprene.

 

Neoprene is a closed cell foam made up of thousands of tiny air bubbles known as cells.

 

The air within the cells creates an insulating barrier which slows down the conduction of heat and cold and allows body heat to be retained.

 

Neoprene:
The thickness of the neoprene utilized in a wetsuit will determine its warmth and flexibility.

 

A thick wetsuit provides a lot of insulation but can inhibit flexibility.

 

A thin wetsuit will be very flexible but can inhibit insulation.

 

The key is to get the right combination of warmth and flexibility so the wetsuit will not only keep you warm, but provide maximum flexibility as well.

 

What is a steamer wetsuit ?
A 'Steamer' is a wetsuit with sealed seams, usually achieved by blind stitching.

 

This stops the majority of cold water from re-entering the suit once your body has initially heated it up.

 

Winter wetsuits are steamers typically with a 5mm body and legs for warmth and 3mm arms for manoeuvrability.

The O'Neill Fit: O’Neill has the best fit in the industry. One of the most important factors in selling a wetsuit is fit.   If a wetsuit doesn’t fit right, it isn’t comfortable and won’t keep you warm. It should be comfortably snug all over.   If the suit fits too loose, there will be cold water entering the suit and you’ll never stay warm.   A suit that is too small or too big can cause rashing. O’Neill’s 50+ years of wetsuit design and engineering ensures an excellent fit.
