They are categorised according to their cell density and are either 100% SBR, 50 %SBR / CR or 100% CR. With SBR being the highest quality. All ToasTees Wetsuits are made from 0.5mm thick Neoskin TM ( 100 % SBR Neoprene). There are 3 ranges.

How a wetsuit keeps you warm. A wetsuit works by trapping a thin layer of water between the wetsuit and the skin. The body temperature quickly heats this trapped water, creating a warm buffer zone that is protected from the outside colder elements by the wetsuits neoprene rubber. The Nylon or PBT/Polyester outer layer provides greater strength and durability. It is important that you select the correct size wetsuit. A wetsuit that is too big will allow a continual flush of cold water between your body and the wetsuit, removing the thin layer of warm water and negating the wetsuits warming ability. For a wetsuit to work properly they are designed to fit snugly. If you would like more product information, feel free to fill out our contact form by clicking here. |
