Ref: shortie
 
Shortie wetsuits are great for children to keep them warm in underheated swimming pools and to add buoyancy. Shorties are just right for splashing around in the shallows and for holidays in the med. They are also great for kids as they are easy to get in and out of.

If your children intend to swim for hours in the water, then for most british summer days a shortie is just not enough. This would also apply if you are holidaying in all the popular destinations on the Atlantic coastlines of France, Portugal and Spain. Full suits are shown below.

Wetsuits help to keep your family protected from sun wind and cold water, they reduce physical injuries such as cuts and grazes from rocks etc and they help with floatation.

100% titanium part flatlocked, no underarm seams, double lined neoprene, ultra stretch fine mesh chest, ultra stretch back panels, glide skin adjustable collar, YKK zip with metal slider and velcro zip lock, internal key pocket.

WETSUIT FITTING GUIDELINES

This information will ensure you get the ultimate fit, maximum performance, and longest life from your wetsuit. Please take time to read it thoroughly.

PUTTING ON YOUR WETSUIT
Leave your socks on. This will help you easily slide your feet through the legs of the suit. Take your time when putting the wetsuit on. A slow and proper fitting will ensure you get the maximum performance from your wetsuit. If you have long fingernails, do not apply too much pressure to the neoprene when pulling it up as your nails may puncture the surface. Always follow these simple steps:

1. Turn the upper body inside out so you can step into the suit like a pair of trousers. Put your legs into the suit. Let the rest of the suit hang inside out down to your knees. Pull the legs up starting at the ankles by pulling up a section at a time. Do this by gripping a section or fold of rubber and pulling it up. (Where possible, grip/hold on to the inside fabric surface instead of the smooth outer surface). Grab and pull from the bottom of the legs one section at a time every few inches upward until the legs are on. NOTE: The legs are only on properly when the crotch is as high up as it will possibly go. If the crotch is not sitting high, or if there is an air pocket between your legs, then repeat the process by pulling up small consecutive sections from the ankles up until the fit is high in the crotch. It does not matter where the ankles of the suit finish. Even if they are some inches above your ankles it is no problem. Having the legs pulled as high as possible is the first and most important key to a proper fit.

2. Continue this same "section by section" upward process through the body by riding the suit up through the backside, hips, stomach, and chest. Place your arms in to the sleeves once the body has been pulled as high as possible.

3. In the case of full-sleeve suits, repeat the same process by pulling the sleeves up high, starting at the wrist up to the shoulder, until the sleeves bunch slightly on the top of the shoulders.

4. Fasten the collar before pulling the zipper up or down. This will allow the zipper to move easily without excessive force. There is a thin panel of material that is positioned underneath the zipper running the length of the back. Be sure this is flat and flush against your skin and beneath the zipper. This is an important element to minimize water entry.

5. Wherever possible, always have someone else zip you up. If you must do it yourself then stand tall with your shoulders back and hold one hand firmly on the bottom of the zipper. If it jams, then repeat the process. Do not pull the zipper with excessive force.

6. Once the zipper is up, make sure the collar is not folded over in any place, and that it is fastened as tight as comfortable. The collar can tighten or loosen by adjusting the position of the rear tab. A comfortably firm fit is a good fit. A loose collar will cause chaffing and water entry. You may wish to further adjust the collar once in the water as your body position will change in a buoyant environment.


HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE A GOOD FIT?
The suit should fit like a second skin. Comfortable, but form-fitting. This will become supple when you are in the water and your head is in a swim position. Stand straight and pull the rubber at the abdomen away from your mid-section. You should feel the suction.

SLEEVE FITTING TEST
In the case of a full-sleeve suit, hold your arms out sideways, at 90 degrees from your body and touch the underarm panel. If there is an air pocket in the armpit, then pull the sleeves higher onto the shoulder until the underarm panel sits flush with your skin.

TOO LARGE?
If the suit is too large, folds of rubber will be evident in the mid section, rear end and/or crotch area. Lots of air pockets. The suit will not have that snug, form fitting feel.

TOO SMALL?
The suit should fit snugly, yet comfortably. If you need a larger size, it will be most evident in the vertical fit of the torso-from the shoulders to the crotch. There will be uncomfortable tightness pulling down on the shoulders and up in the crotch area.
