When buying a wetsuit you need to make sure it fits you correctly. Buying an ill-fitting wetsuit can be a waste of money as it’s not going to keep you warm in the water. Before you buy a wetsuit check the size chart. Be aware that every manufacturer uses a slightly different standard, just because you buy a medium t-shirt doesn’t mean you’re a medium wetsuit. We’re all different shapes and sizes and you may find that some brands of wetsuit will fit your body shape better than others. If you find that you are between two sizes, then we would suggest choosing the size that you are closest to.

We hope that you find this information helpful when choosing the right wetsuit size for you. If you’re in doubt feel free to call us on 01548 854 660 (Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm) or you can drop us an email at store@magicseaweed.com and we’d be more than happy to help. Check out the MSW Wetsuit Guide for more information on wetsuit sizing.

Please Note: Not all sizes are available across all styles and brands, please check individual wetsuit listings.
