WETSUIT FAQs
Why do I need a wetsuit?
You know those trips down south in winter when you’re facing three-degree mornings (SOMETIMES COLDER!)? This is when you’re going to want to reach for your wetsuit. It traps the water close to your body and heats it up.
How can I tell the thickness of a wetsuit?
You’ll find some numbers inside the left sleeve of all Rusty wetsuits. These numbers refer to the mm. The first number is the thickness of the main body panels, and the second number is the thickness of the extremities. Wetsuits in Australia usually range from 2/2, 3/2 or 4/3. The thicker the wetsuit, the stiffer it will be.
When should I wear a wetsuit jacket?
Wetsuit jackets are usually worn in the summer months when the water is a bit warmer. They’re great for a bit of sun protection or if the winds up and you’re after that extra layer!
What is a steamer wetsuit?
A steamer wetsuit is a full-length wetsuit, covering the arms and the legs. You’ll find most people opt for a steamer wetsuit in the winter months when the water gets colder.
