STEAMERS
A steamer is a type of full-body wetsuit designed for surfing. They are called "steamers" because they fit snugly on the body, like a second skin, and are made with thick material that provides maximum flexibility and range of motion.Β
A steamer wetsuit is a full-length wetsuit that covers the entire body, including the arms and legs, providing maximum warmth and protection against cold water. It is typically made from neoprene, a synthetic rubber that provides insulation by trapping a thin layer of water between the suit and the skin. The thickness of the neoprene can vary depending on the water temperature and personal preference. Steamer wetsuits are commonly used for surfing, diving, and other water sports where prolonged exposure to cold water is expected. They are a staple of any water enthusiast's gear collection.
