How to choose the right wetsuit (Part 1)The first selection criterion when choosing a surfing wetsuit is the water temperature. Water temperature varies according to the location and the time of the year. Systematically make sure that the water temperature at your spot corresponds to the recommended temperature range: Warm water above 20oC. Temperate water between 17oC and 22oC. Cold water between 12oC and 17oC. Very cold water between 7oC and 12oC. Visit the site seatemperature.org to find out the temperature of your spot.

How to choose the right wetsuit (Part 2)The second criterion to take into account is the length of your sessions. If your sessions last less than an hour, the 100 models will be suitable. For up to 2 hours, opt for the 500 models and for up to 3 hours, the 900 models.Compared to the 100 models, the 500 models will be warmer (and more watertight) and more efficient at reducing fatigue (more freedom of movement) and irritation. The same is true for the 900 models compared with the 500 models.NOTE: the 900 models are easier to put on.

Choose the right sizeTo make the most of the features of your wetsuit, it is necessary to choose the correct size. A surfing wetsuit should be a very tight fit and there should be no visible folds. When dry, it is perfectly normal to feel like it is too tight, this discomfort disappears as soon as the wetsuit gets wet. If you choose a wetsuit that is too big, folds will appear, you will experience irritation and thermal comfort will be reduced (letting in water).

MATERIALSThis OLAIAN 900 Pro John is made from 100% ultra-stretch neoprene for guaranteed improved comfort during use and freedom of movement.The neoprene is lined with synthetic fabric for increased resistance to wear.Neoprene thickness: 1.5 mm.The neoprene is made from an elastomer foam with insulating properties.We test and guarantee the quality of our neoprene materials.The flexibility of the 900 range is provided by the stretch properties of the foam and the textiles.

COLLARThe neck finish has been developed to limit irritation. According to the sensitivity of the wearer, a UV top can be worn under the wetsuit to reduce the risk of irritation. The application of grease (e.g. Vaseline) in friction areas (neck, underarms) is also recommended if wearing the wetsuit for long periods.

MAXIMUM FREEDOM OF MOVEMENTThe 900 OLAIAN men's wetsuit range offers a style and material specifically chosen to facilitate paddling and fully ease movement.The entire wetsuit is made from ultra-stretch neoprene especially on the upper body for easier rowing action and on the lower back to help with "Take Off"All the seams are stretch seams.

FASTENINGThe opening without a chest zip gives you freedom of movement and is more watertight than a traditional back zip. There is a drawstring to adjust the fastening.

WAVE-RESISTANCETo keep the Pro John firmly in place during sports activities, silicone patches have been placed on the inside of the sleeves and at the bottom of the legs.

Multi-watersports wetsuitsOur wetsuits are designed to meet the needs of the most demanding surfers.Our design choices also make them compatible with other watersports such as kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, water skiing, sea wading or SUP (stand-up paddleboarding).

KEY POCKETThere is a key pocket in the front panel under the zip.

Our actions to reduces the environmental impact of our wetsuitsOur 900 range of wetsuits are made from Limestone, a limestone-based neoprene. The black colour of the neoprene, called Eco Carbon Black, is obtained by recycling used tyres. The glue used to assemble the textile and neoprene, called Aquaglue, is water-based and solvent-free. The dope-dyed yarn process used for the black colour is very water-efficient and environmentally friendly.
