PROPEL:SWIMRUN WETSUIT

How should my 2XU Wetsuit fit? Your suit should fit adequately in terms of both your height and weight. In the case that you fit into more than one size, you should opt for the smaller size. While 2XU Wetsuits come in both men's and women's styles, some females prefer the fit of a men's suit. This is fine. On the arms, your wetsuit sleeves should finish at least one finger gap in distance from your wrist bone. This will ensure the suit is sitting high enough and does not pull on the shoulders. In the legs, the wetsuit legs should finish 3/4 of the way down your shin. This will ensure the suit is sitting high into the crutch. If sitting too low, the suit will pull on the top of the shoulders. Around the neck, the wetsuit should be firm but not to the point that breathing is restricted. If the neck bunches at all, the suit is too big. The neck is the number one area water can enter the suit, so it needs to be secure. Avoid contact between the smooth skin side of the neoprene and anything abrasive. Gloves are provided to assist prevent finger nail nicks when putting on or taking off. To further assist with minimising a dreaded fingernail tear, start with the wetsuit inside out, ensuring you are looking at the chest, not the back zipper as you hold it up. Lay the suit on the ground in front of you and insert your feet through each opening. Begin to tug the suit up over your lower legs, working evenly and alternatively from leg to leg. Once you have the suit up and over your chest, do one arm at a time in the same manner (with it inside out). Your 2XU wetsuit should fit snugly, but not restrict movement or breathing. It will loosen slightly when wet. For specific sizing, please refer to our Size Guide below. You will also find some helpful fit-related information in the FAQs section of the website.
