Description
Our warmest wetsuit, built for the coldest months of winter. Yulex Pure® natural rubber 5mm hooded suit for 7-11℃ sea temperatures, now with updated taped seams. Built-in hood and front entry chest zip create a tight fit to prevent flushing, whilst the thicker 6.5mm high pile chest and back panelling help retain core warmth, keeping you in the water for longer.
Since 2021, all our wetsuits are made using Yulex® natural rubber - producing up to 80% less CO2 than using traditional neoprene without compromising on performance, and furthering our commitment to protect our ocean playgrounds.
Tight fit when new and will loosen slightly after 10-15 wears.
Constructed with industry-leading performance features.
For additional heat retention our 5mm, 4mm & 3mm wetsuits have a high internal pile and thicker patches on the chest and lower back to maintain core warmth and keep you out for longer.
Made to last multiple seasons, our cold water wetsuits feature double blind stitching throughout, as well as taped seams to keep the cold out and your body heat in.
From outer laminates to internal linings we use 100% recycled polyester, blended with spandex for sustainable construction with that touch of stretch to keep you flexible.
Tension wristbands maintain a tight fit to prevent flushing, and the bespoke ankle loops on our 4mm and 5mm wetsuits aid easy entry when fumbling with frozen fingers.
All our wetsuits are laminated using AquaA™; a solvent-free adhesive that eliminates Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), without compromising on performance or durability.
A cleaner alternative to toxic neoprene. Manufacturing our wetsuits with Yulex Pure produces up to 80% less CO2 than neoprene, without compromising on performance.
The ocean needs us to act now. We believe everyone can play their part in making a difference.

This is my 4th Finisterre wetsuit, quality is still there.
I have the Men's Nieuwland 5mm Yulex Hooded Wetsuit - it's my first Finisterre wetsuit and my first Yulex suit. I've worn it about half a dozen times so far and the fit is really good (I'm a medium), the build quality is great, it's comfortable and super warm - the built in hood is great for pushing through those cold winter waves. Best of all it's made from plant based Yulex - I'm hoping Finisterre add to their range of wetsuits. Good price too. In simple terms - quality winter wetsuit from a sustainable business.
Go Finisterre!
Amazing suit. Third one I’ve had and by far the best. Would love to see a summer suit or even wetsuit jacket.

This is my first Finisterre wetsuit, and I have only used it twice so this is an early review (so unable to cover durability etc).
Warmth - this wetsuit is the warmest wetsuit I have used. I’ve recently had the O’Neill psycho tech which is also good, and perhaps a little lighter than this one, but the Finisterre is warmer.
Fit - I’m a large in all different brands and the large in this fits me perfectly (I’m 6’1, 43 inch chest, 34 inch waist and weight 88-90kg).
Getting on is fine. Getting off the shoulders is a little difficult but doable alone and I understand this should get easier.
Yulex - No issues with flexibility or otherwise.
Overall super impressed with this suit. It’s only early December so sea will get colder but at the moment I have had to take the hood down a few times because of the warmth.
I’d def recommend this so far, early days but all good so far. Will consider getting the 4/3 for Autumn / Spring.
I would ignore reviews or earlier versions of Finisterre suits as I think a lot has changed on this one, and it seems they have nailed it!

My third finisterre hooded suit and it’s evolved well from the original tester suit.
Only had one surf in it so far, but really warm and much more flexible in the shoulders than previous suits.
Only complaint was that I could feel a bit of cold water flushing into the crotch when sitting on the board, but perhaps that will stop as the rest of the suit stretches and puts less stress on those seams?
We’ll see.
