Scuba Wetsuits

Wetsuit for Swimming

Wetsuits are garments worn to provide thermal protection while wet. It is usually made of foamed neoprene, and is worn by surfers, divers, windsurfers, canoeists, and others engaged in water sports and other activities in or on water, primarily providing thermal insulation, but also buoyancy and protection from abrasion, ultraviolet exposure, and stings from marine organisms. The insulation properties of Neoprene foam depend mainly on bubbles of gas enclosed within the material, which reduce its ability to conduct heat. The bubbles also give the wetsuit a low density, providing buoyancy in water.

Different types of scuba wetsuits are made for different uses and for different temperatures. Suites range from a thin (2 mm or less) “shortie“, covering just the torso, to a full 8 mm semi-dry, usually complemented by neoprene boots, gloves, and hood.

Wetsuit

The difference between a wetsuit and a dry suit is that a wetsuit allows water to enter the suit, while dry bags and suits are designed to prevent water from entering, thus keeping the undergarments dry and preserving their insulating effectiveness. Wetsuits can give adequate protection in warm to moderately cold waters. Drysuits are typically more expensive and more complex to use but can be used where protection from lower temperatures or contaminated water is needed.
