Women's wetsuit thickness
One of the most important factors to consider when choosing a wetsuit is the thickness of the neoprene material used. Neoprene is a synthetic rubber that provides insulation and buoyancy, and is the primary material used in wetsuits. The thickness of the neoprene determines how much insulation the wetsuit provides, as well as its flexibility and durability. Our women's wetsuits are available in a range of neoprene thicknesses, from as low as 2mm up to 6mm, to suit different water temperatures and activity levels. For warm water and mild weather, a shorty wetsuit is a great option that provides coverage for your arms and torso without making you too hot. For colder water and air temperatures, a full length wetsuit provides full body coverage to keep you warm from head to toe. Whatever your needs, we have a wetsuit that will keep you comfortable in the water. Typically 2mm shorties, 3/2mm & 4/3mm fullsuits are suitable for the warmer summer months. While the 5/4mm fullsuit suit is a good all-round suit that works well into both spring and autumn. The 6/5mm fullsuit hooded winter suit is suitable for the cold winter months, when the water temperatures are at their lowest. Remember when it comes to water temperatures and neoprene thickness there is typically no definitive answer to the perfect combination. This is typically a matter of individual needs, personal preferences, water sports activity and experience.
Women's wetsuit maintenance
If you have invested in a wetsuit, we encourage you to take good care of the suit so that it lasts for many trips in the water. This benefits both your wallet and the climate. Below we have created a list of Westwind tips for the care and maintenance of wetsuits. If you follow it, your wetsuit and your other neoprene products will remain functional for many years into the future:
Rinse your wetsuit in cold fresh water after each trip on the water. This removes salt, sand and other impurities that can slowly degrade your wetsuit.
Never use washing-up liquid when rinsing the suit, as this can damage the neoprene.
Regular use of a neoprene piss-off soap/conditioner when you rinse the suit helps keep the neoprene soft and supple. This contributes to an extension of the life of the suit.
It is best to dry your wetsuit indoors as direct sunlight and heat can damage the neoprene. At the same time, it should be hung to dry in a room with adequate air circulation
Dry your wetsuit thoroughly before storing it. The wetsuit should not be the least bit damp before you pack it away for an extended period. The wetsuit should also never be exposed to undue pressure during long periods of storage.
Store your wetsuit in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Regular checking of the suit's condition, i.e. check for holes, tears or other minor damage to your wetsuit. If damage has occurred, it should be repaired as soon as possible with a neoprene glue. In this way, you avoid small damages growing into major damages that require professional repair.
Women's wetsuit for stand up paddling
When choosing a women's wetsuit for stand up paddling, it is important to find one that fits well and is made of high quality neoprene material. A well-fitting wetsuit will not only keep you warm on your SUP trip, but will also provide extra buoyancy in case you fall into the water. Note, however, that it is a legal requirement to wear a safety-approved life jacket when you SUP. Check out our large selection of swimming and life jackets here. In addition, a high-quality neoprene material will be durable and able to withstand the stress of regularly performing the paddle motion. At the same time, a tight and well-fitting wetsuit will reduce the chance of chafing around the armpits.
