Wetsuit Care
Look after your wetsuit and it will look after you
Although general care guidelines apply to all wetsuits, washing instructions, storage and repair may vary per manufacturer and wetsuit type.
We recommend, you should always carefully read the instructions on the label of your wetsuit. We have outlined some Simpel wetsuit care guidelines below we hope you find the following information useful.
Putting on your wetsuit
Get changed on a clean area of ground, ideally avoiding standing directly on gravel, tarmac or other rough surfaces. Use a towel or board bag to protect your wetsuit.
Cleaning your wetsuit
It's important to clean your wetsuit with fresh water after every use to remove the salt, sand and any other contaminents that over time can build up and damage the wetsuit.
Storing your wetsuit
When storing a wetsuit make sure it is completely dry, inside and out. Hang it in a cool, dry area to ensure it stays dry and fresh for its next use in the surf.
