Neoprene Wetsuit Vests

Neoprene Vests

Our neoprene vests are made just like wetsuits and can be worn on their own or under another garment to help make you warmer.

They are a great addition to your kit collection and give you flexibility if its warmer or colder than normal. You can use a neoprene vest as part of a layering system under your normal wetsuit.

Neoprene Vest Sizing & Fit

For a neoprene wetsuit vest to work well it should be quite a tight fit as it needs to trap a layer of water between the neoprene and your skin.

If a wetsuit vest is a loose fit it may well be more comfortable when you are out of the water but it will not keep you warm. Neoprene vests may be harder to put on than a normal wetsuit as most of them do not have a zip to help you get them on.

Style of Vest

A sleeveless neoprene wetsuit vest can be worn under an existing wetsuit to give extra warmth to an existing wetsuit.

Neoprene vests can also be worn on their own for both watersports or muddy adventure races.

Long sleeve versions can be difficult to get on under a wetsuit and are more suited to being worn on their own in warmer conditions where you don’t need a full wetsuit. Zipped wetsuit vests are easiest to get on and are very useful for when it’s really hot and you are in and out of the water frequently.
