Vissla North Seas 3mm Wetsuit Hood - Black

A very well designed winter suit for surfing. The hood is particularly noteworthy. It is snug fitting and flexible and integrated nicely into the neoprene from the neck line up. It makes a difference because you are less restricted in your head movements (not that I’m moving my head around that much but it makes a difference, believe me!).
I wanted to get a more “eco friendly” suit. I think there may be a bit of “green washing” going on but Vissla claim to respect sustainability is important to our future. Clearly it is imperative! In choosing this suit over other (arguably) more sustainable products I feel a bit hypocritical but in terms of the quality of the suit and what it is for (cold water surfing) i cannot fault it. I have only used it twice so how durable it is remains to be seen but having had many many winter suits over the years I have been surfing, this is the best I have had yet. It has stoked me back up when the cold was starting to put me off and I can’t wait to get out there again and snag a few peelers! Happy days :-)

A fantastic suit, brilliant quality, supple neoprene, easy to get on, surprisingly quick to dry. I was out on the East of Scotland in December and came out as warm as I went in.
