Aropec Youth 2.5mm Neon Yellow Spring Suit is an all-purpose springy designed with kids in mind, that is to say, they’re built tough. The combination of super stretch neoprene, smooth-skin panels and flatlock seams ticks all the important boxes - the result is a durable wetsuit with enough flexibility for swimming and surfing. The smooth-skin coated torso panel is the best defence against wind chill and by placing it around their torso/organs it works to maintain core body temperatures. Smooth-skin is a rubbery coat that can’t hold water (hydrophobic) which means it dries in a flash, wind only speeds up the drying process!

The big tick on durability comes from the flatlock seams which are the most durable seam in . Flatlock stitching creates pin-holes in the neoprene itself which allows water and air to move through, at a very slow rate. This adds versatility because the breathable seam allows them to play in the surf as well as the sand, without overheating. If you’re looking for a similar suit designed for cold-water conditions we recommend looking at the thermally-lined and sealed-seam .

The Aropec Youth 2.5mm Neon Yellow Spring Suit is one of our favourite in that it’s ready for anything, be it surfing, swimming or diving. All of this versatility comes at a price but the glory results from the low cost and high value-for-money.
