This suit will keep you warm in the coldest surf you can find.
4mm Yulex Wetsuits
For Autumn & Spring Water Temps Of 11-15°C
Hoodless, flexible, and with plenty of heat retention, our 4mm wetsuits are incredibly versatile. Made to carry you through the transitions of autumn and spring as well as keeping you going through the depths of winter. If surfing in the UK, this suit will likely be the one you use most throughout the year.
3mm Yulex Wetsuits
For Summer Water Temps Of 14-18°C
Stay in for longer over the summer.

The ideal blend of warmth and flexibility to help you enjoy those all-day summer sessions. New for 2023, we’ve added a back zip option to our high-performance wetsuit range. Easier to get in and out of than a chest zip, it still retains the core performance features and warmth capabilities our specialised surf wetsuits are known for.
