WHEN CAN YOU GO IN THE WATER WITH A 4MM MEN'S WETSUIT?

A 4mm men's wetsuit can't be missing in your surf suit collection, because this thickness is perfect to put on when it's too warm for a winter wetsuit and too cold for a 3/2 surf suit. The advantage to a 4mm wetsuit is that you use it proportionally longer, because you rotate your wetsuits throughout the year. This makes a 4mm men's wetsuit suitable to wear during temperatures between 14 and 18 degrees.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING A MEN'S 4MM WETSUIT

Are you not sure yet which 4mm men's wetsuit is right for you? Check below the aspects you need to consider while orientating on a wetsuit.

ZIPPER

The 4mm men's wetsuits are available in three different types of zippers. Each has its advantages, but also disadvantages. For those looking for an easy to put on wetsuit, the backzip is an excellent choice. With the zipper on the back you step into a sort of anywhere. The disadvantage is that a little more water can run in. Are you looking for freedom of movement and an almost waterproof wetsuit? Then a wetsuit with a front zip might be the thing for you. Recently we introduced another variation, namely the zipperless wetsuits. These are very flexible and comfortable to wear.

To make sure you buy the right one for you, we advise you to try out the different versions in the Telstar Surf shop!

SIZE

Before you buy a wetsuit it's very important to choose the right size. Sometimes it can be very complicated to find the right balance between tightness, comfort and size. On our wesuit sizes page you will find a general estimate.

COMFORT

Comfort is a must during your surf session, that's why it's good to pay a little extra attention to it. Not only standing up, but also when you move, the surf suit should be comfortable. Making a squat or rotating the arms can help to determine whether the wetsuit on offer enough comfort or not.

STITCHING METHOD

There are two different methods of holding neoprene together today: stitched and glued. We recommend glued seams especially if you are really looking for a wetsuit for during cold temperatures. Stitched seams are slightly less warm than glued seams, but great for a 4mm men's wetsuit.

THICKNESS

The thickness of a wetsuit strongly depends on what period you go on the water. A 4mm men's wetsuit is perfect on the days when it is between 14 and 18 degrees warm. A 4/3mm men's wetsuit has 4 millimeters thick neoprene on the chest and back. The arms and legs have 3 millimeters of neoprene. This will give you enough freedom of movement while surfing without sacrificing warmth.
