The Heat line is designed for cold or windy surfing conditions, featuring liquid-sealed seams and Smoothskin panels on the chest and back to block wind chill. It also uses Japanese limestone neoprene, known for its warmth and flexibility, combined with 360° stretch lining and plush insulation, all bundled into a high-performance wetsuit at a competitive price.

The Heat wetsuit is built specifically for cold to very cold conditions, making it ideal for autumn, winter, and early spring sessions. If you surf all year, it’s best used as your dedicated winter suit, since it may feel too warm for summer surf.

Here’s a breakdown of which thickness to choose based on your local water temperatures:

• 3/2 mm - Great for cool spring or fall sessions (approx. 14–20 °C)
• 4/3 mm - A solid mid-season option for chilly conditions (10–18 °C)
• 5/4 mm - Reliable for consistent winter use (5–13 °C)
• 5/4 mm hooded - Best for colder winter days and windy spots (4–10 °C)
• 6/5 mm hooded - Built for freezing conditions and long cold sessions (2–8 °C)

If you're unsure, our thickness guide will help match your surf location to the correct wetsuit and preferred warmth level.

Both suits use the same insulating materials and seam construction, but the hooded version includes a built-in thermal hood for additional protection in colder water (4–10 °C). It prevents heat loss through the head and eliminates the need for a separate neoprene hood. The non-hooded version is better for milder winters or if you prefer wearing your own detachable hood or cap.
