Men's Long Coast Wetsuits

(11 products)

Why choose a specific wetsuit for long coast walking?

The long coast walking heavily engages the upper body, shoulders, and legs. Unlike other water sports, the movements are continuous and repetitive throughout the duration of the effort. A men's long coast wetsuit must therefore provide excellent freedom of movement while maintaining effective thermal protection.

Since 1976, we have observed that practitioners equipped with wetsuits specifically designed for water walking generally enjoy better comfort and faster progress.

How to choose your men's long coast wetsuit?

The choice mainly depends on the water temperature, frequency of practice, and desired level.

For regular outings, it is advisable to opt for a flexible wetsuit that offers excellent shoulder mobility. More committed practitioners often prefer technical models that enhance comfort over long distances and during intensive training.

A good men's water walking wetsuit should allow for walking, pushing water, and accelerating without any discomfort.

A wetsuit suitable for all seasons

The conditions for practice change significantly throughout the year. In winter or in cool waters, a full wetsuit provides the necessary thermal protection to maintain comfort for several hours.

When temperatures rise, some practitioners complement their gear with a Shorty Long Coast to retain more freedom of movement while staying protected.

Adapting your gear to your level

The needs differ between a beginner and an experienced practitioner. Models designed for discovery generally prioritize comfort and versatility, while more technical wetsuits are designed for performance, speed, and regular training.

This evolution of equipment naturally accompanies the practitioner's progress over the seasons.

Long coast tops: a strategic complement

The Long Coast Tops allow for precise adjustment of thermal protection according to the weather and intensity of effort.

They are particularly appreciated during mid-season training or when conditions vary rapidly between the start and end of the outing.

Accessories that enhance comfort

Beyond the wetsuit, the Long Coast Accessories further optimize the practice. They provide additional comfort and allow for adapting equipment to the conditions encountered on the field.

These elements often play an important role during long outings or competitions.

FAQ

Men's long-distance swimming suits

How to choose a long-coast wetsuit for men?

Choose based on the water temperature, the duration of your outings, and your sensitivity to the cold. A fit that suits your body shape and flexible neoprene allows for comfortable walking and arm movement. Also, check the closures and seams, which affect putting it on and water entry.

Which thickness to choose: 3/2, 4/3, or 5/4/3 mm?

A 3/2 mm wetsuit prioritizes flexibility in milder conditions. A 4/3 mm provides more insulation, while a 5/4/3 mm is better suited for cold waters. These numbers correspond to the thicknesses of neoprene in different areas. Refine your choice with the model's recommendations and your cold sensitivity.

What size to choose for a men's water walking suit?

Measure your height as well as your chest, waist, and hip measurements, then check the size guide. The suit should fit snugly without compressing or limiting your movements. Don't automatically choose a larger size for comfort: an overly loose garment promotes water exchange.

What is the benefit of a Dual Zip closure?

The Dual Zip system combines a front and back closure on the relevant Ocean Step models. This construction makes it easier to put on and take off the wetsuit. Depending on the version, flaps and additional openings at the calves complete the gear. Check the product sheet for details on the chosen model.

Full suit or shorty: what to choose for long-distance swimming?

The full suit covers the arms and legs for more complete thermal protection, especially useful when the water cools down. A shorty leaves part of the legs exposed and may be suitable for milder conditions. The choice mainly depends on the water temperature, the duration of the session, and your personal comfort.

Does a men's wetsuit suit long-distance swimming?

Yes, if it provides sufficient insulation and allows for comfortable movement at the hips, knees, and shoulders. A wetsuit designed for long-distance walking can offer practical features for water walking, such as a double opening or zippers at the calves. Be sure to check the ease of movement.

What accessories to pair with a men's long-coast wetsuit?

Plan for water shoes or suitable booties for walking, with a protective sole and grip suitable for the terrain. In cold water, neoprene gloves and a hood complete thermal protection. A poncho also makes it easier to change clothes after the session.

How to wash and dry a long-coat wetsuit?

After each outing, rinse the inside and outside with fresh cold water. Dry the wetsuit in the shade in a ventilated area, folded over a wide support to avoid pulling on the shoulders. Avoid hot water and the dryer. For a more thorough cleaning, use a product suitable for neoprene.
