FAQ

Choose your first Mystic wetsuit based on the water temperature, the season and how much warmth or flexibility you need. For warm-water sessions, choose a lighter wetsuit or summer suit from Brand, Lunar or Sway. For mild conditions, choose a flexible 3/2 fullsuit from Star, Brand, Motion, Haven, Dazzled, Majestic or Jayde. For colder water, choose a thicker fullsuit from Motion, Marshall, Star, Haven, Majestic or Jayde. For the coldest sessions, choose Voltt for men or Gem for women. Choose Evolve if you want our most conscious-choice wetsuit, and choose The One if you want a zipfree wetsuit with a clean feel, bold colours and premium warmth.

A fullsuit covers the full body and gives the most warmth and protection, making it the best choice for cold water, windy conditions and longer sessions. Fullsuit options include Voltt, Gem, Majestic, Jayde, Motion, Marshall, Haven, Star, Brand, Evolve and The One. A springsuit, shorty or summer suit uses less neoprene and gives more freedom of movement in warmer water. Choose summer styles such as Brand, Lunar, Sway, Dazzled shorty styles, Motion shorty styles or The One Shorty when warmth is less important than flexibility and comfort.

Wetsuit thickness should match the water temperature, wind chill, session length and how cold you personally feel. Choose 2mm or lighter for warm water above 20°C. Choose 3/2mm for mild conditions around 13-15°C and warmer. Choose 4/3mm for cooler water around 11-15°C. Choose 5/3mm for colder water around 8-12°C. Choose 5/4mm, 5/4/3mm or 6/4/3mm for very cold water below 8°C. For warm-water flexibility, look at Brand, Lunar or Sway. For cold-water warmth, look at Voltt, Gem, Majestic, Jayde, Motion, Marshall, Haven or Star in thicker fullsuit options.

A back-zip wetsuit is the easiest and fastest to put on and take off. It is a good choice if easy entry matters most. Back-zip options can be found in series such as Majestic, Star, Brand and Lunar. A front-zip wetsuit gives a better balance of warmth, flexibility and performance because the zipper is shorter and placed at the chest. Front-zip options include series such as Voltt, Motion, Marshall, Evolve, Brand, Sway, Gem and Jayde. A zipfree wetsuit removes the zipper for the cleanest feel, strong stretch and high comfort. Choose The One if you want a zipfree Mystic wetsuit with premium warmth and a minimal entry feel.

In colder conditions, wetsuit accessories can be just as important as the wetsuit itself. A wetsuit keeps your core warm, but your hands, feet, head and neck are sensitive to cold water and wind. Choose Mystic boots when you need warmer feet, grip and protection. Choose Mystic gloves when your hands get cold or the wind chill is strong. Choose a Mystic hood or hooded wetsuit when head and neck warmth become important. For winter sessions, a thick wetsuit without boots, gloves and a hood may still feel too cold.
