Stay warmer longer with thermal accessories! There's something for every temperature range...
When we're in the water, it's through our extremities (feet, hands, head) that we lose more than half our body heat.
Therefore, here are the recommended accessories:
- in water (>17°C) => neoprene socks.
- in water (12 - 17°C): high booties and gloves.
- in water (7 - 12°C): high booties, gloves, balaclava and balaclava top.
Choosing the right size
Surf gloves should be worn very snugly to ensure maximum efficiency. It's normal to feel too tight when trying them on dry. Choosing well-fitting gloves prevents them from swelling with water during practice.
Materials
The 3 mm surf gloves are made of 100% neoprene for maximum comfort.
The neoprene is lined with synthetic textile for greater resistance to wear.
Neoprene thickness: 3 mm.
The neoprene is composed of an elastomer foam with insulating properties.
We test and guarantee the quality of our neoprene materials.
Sealed assembly
The seams are sewn and glued to guarantee watertightness and resistance
The seam is called "blind": the thread does not go through the entire thickness of the neoprene, which prevents water from passing through.
The absence of threads on the inside prevents chafing.
A seal on the outside of the seams further reinforces resistance and watertightness.
Choose the right combination!
Our wetsuit models are also classified by water temperature range.
Our wetsuits are designed to meet the needs of the most demanding surfers.
Our design choices also make them compatible with other water sports such as kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, water skiing, active ocean walking (longe-côte) or SUP (stand-up paddle).
