Not sure about thickness or fit? Message us — we’ll recommend sizing, water-temp range, and ideal use.
If you are between sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size, as wetsuits should fit close to the body to reduce water flushing.
What water temperatures are these wetsuits suitable for?
Water temperature suitability depends on thickness, style, activity level, and personal comfort. As a general guide, lighter wetsuits suit warmer waters, while thicker full suits provide more insulation for cooler conditions.
What is the approximate temperature range for a 2/2mm wetsuit?
A 2/2mm wetsuit is generally comfortable in warm to mild waters, approximately 64–72°F (18-22°C ), depending on conditions and personal tolerance.
What is the approximate temperature range for a 3/3mm wetsuit?
A 3/3mm wetsuit is typically suited to cooler waters, approximately 57–66°F (14–19°C), offering more warmth for longer or colder sessions.
How should a wetsuit fit?
A wetsuit should fit snugly without restricting movement. It may feel slightly firm when dry and will feel more comfortable once wet. A close fit helps reduce water flushing and improves warmth.
Are these wetsuits easy to put on and take off?
Yes. Entry systems and materials are selected to make getting in and out as easy as possible. Softer neoprene and considered construction help reduce strain during entry and removal.
What if I’m between sizes?
If you’re between sizes, a slightly snug fit is recommended for warmth and performance. Sizing up may offer additional comfort for casual use. Our team is happy to help with sizing advice.

- LHLisa H.Verified BuyerReviewingRell Vest – Reef 2mmI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars4 months agoGreat product!
I chose XS, was perfect for me, the quality is first class!
- MMMaks M.Verified BuyerReviewingRell Vest – Ocean 2mmI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars6 months agoGreat quality and style as always, beautiful colour
I own many Abysse pieces and the quality is always great. And the colour is so much more beautiful than the picture.
First I ordered XXS as advised in the size chart but had to exchange for XS because the fit was just too tight. If you are inbetween sizes I would recommend the larger size. I cannot say anything about warmth yet but I am sure it will be warm as I have the Pam rash guard which is even thinner and it still keeps me warm.
- CWColette W.Verified BuyerReviewingRell Vest – Ocean 2mmI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars10 months agoGreat fit and very comfortable
I am 5'11'' and slender. In the wetsuit one-piece I wear a medium but decided to size down to a small for this jacket. It is a very snug fit and I'm very happy with it.
- LLaGigiVerified ReviewerReviewingRell Vest – Pitaya 2mmI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoWarmer than the Pam Top
This keeps me warm, even a tad to warm for our summer southern california summer. I bodysurf so I’m pretty active with it. It’s close to the body, the neoprene is soft and flexible and allow me a full range of motion. Fits true to size on my 5,5, 34A, 125-128 lbs, I took a small. I like the Pam top for the summer and will use this on frisky mornings, spring/fall.
Note: the matching bikini bottom barely stays on with our Pacific Ocean waves. Shorties are better.
