Kinder-Neoprenanzüge

For year-round warmth, especially in Ireland’s cooler waters, a 5mm full length wetsuit is the top choice. If your child is mainly in the water during summer, a 3/2mm wetsuit offers flexibility and UV protection. Shorty wetsuits are best for holidays abroad or the hottest days at home. Read our full guide on How to choose the right wetsuit for kids.

Cheaper wetsuits may not offer the same warmth, flexibility, or durability as higher-quality options. They can also be prone to tearing and may not fit as snugly, reducing their effectiveness in keeping kids warm.

Rinse in fresh water after each use, avoid direct sunlight when drying, and never use harsh detergents. We stock specific wetsuit shampoo cleaners that are eco-friendly.

Minor damage can be fixed at home using a neoprene repair kit. Clean and dry the suit thoroughly before applying the adhesive, and allow plenty of time for it to set before using the wetsuit again. We stock a range of wetsuit and neoprene repair kits.

Yes! Our trade-in scheme lets you return your child’s outgrown wetsuit when buying a new one, saving you money and helping the environment. Read more about our kids wetsuit trade-in scheme.

We offer kids wetsuits from O’Neill, Rip Curl, Billabong, and Jobe. Trusted for quality, comfort, and durability.

Wetsuits are useful for a variety of water sports, including sailing, as they provide warmth and protection from wind chill and water spray, not just from immersion in water.
