Men's Wetsuits: Surf, Bodyboard, and Water Sports

What thickness to choose based on water temperature?

Thickness remains one of the most important criteria when choosing a wetsuit. A 3/2 mm is generally suitable for waters between 15°C and 20°C and is an excellent choice for spring or summer sessions. The 4/3 mm is the most versatile reference for a large part of the year on the French coasts.

When winter sets in and temperatures drop, 5/4 mm or 5/4/3 mm wetsuits offer superior protection, allowing you to continue surfing comfortably in cold waters. The choice of the right thickness always depends on the conditions encountered and your personal sensitivity to cold.

A complete range for the whole family

Every practitioner has specific needs based on their morphology and practice. While this selection is dedicated to men, female surfers can find suitable models in our Women's Wetsuits collection, designed to offer a precise fit and excellent freedom of movement.

Younger surfers can also enjoy suitable gear thanks to our selection of Kids' Wetsuits, specially developed to support first sessions as well as more regular practices throughout the year.

Full suit or shorty?

Not all sessions require the same level of thermal protection. When temperatures rise, many practitioners prefer a Shorty to maintain greater freedom of movement while still benefiting from sufficient protection against wind and cooler water.

Full wetsuits remain essential for transitional seasons and winter sessions. The choice mainly depends on water temperature, session duration, and desired comfort.

Essential accessories for cold water

When conditions become more demanding, neoprene accessories play a crucial role. Neoprene Booties help retain warmth in the feet, while Neoprene Gloves limit thermal loss in the hands.

In the coldest waters, Neoprene Hoods effectively complete the gear by protecting an area particularly sensitive to heat loss. These accessories often allow for extended sessions of several hours in optimal comfort.

Preserving your wetsuit season after season

A well-maintained wetsuit retains its flexibility, comfort, and thermal performance for longer. Rinsing with fresh water after each session, drying in the shade, and proper storage can significantly extend its lifespan.

Regular use of Neoprene Care products also helps preserve the elasticity of the materials, the quality of the seams, and the insulating properties of the wetsuit.
