The W80 combines 8mm neoprene coverage with a flexible Ultraflex construction and practical rear entry. Ankle zips assist changing, and the reinforcement and grip prints help at contact points around dive equipment.
Features and Benefits
- Practical entry: Rear YKK zip. Open the entry fully before changing and settle the panels into place before closing it. A backing flap or internal barrier, where fitted, interrupts the direct path of water through the zip.
- Reinforcement: ToughTex knees and grip prints at shoulders and seat. These panels help resist everyday rubbing at contact points without requiring the whole suit to use the same tougher outer material.

Fit and Sizing
Compare your chest, waist, hips and height with the model’s size guide. The suit should sit closely without restricting breathing or shoulder movement. Settle the panels into place and check for excessive gaps or folds before deciding on a size. Match the thickness and coverage to the water conditions, activity and your own comfort. Warmth depends on fit, exposure time and the rest of your exposure gear.

Gear Care and Washing
After every use, rinse the suit inside and out in cool fresh water to remove salt, chlorine, sand and other residue. Gently hand wash when needed using mild soap or a cleaner specifically authorised by Waterproof. Rinse thoroughly after washing.
Let both sides dry completely in the shade with good airflow. Support the suit on a broad wetsuit hanger, or drape it over a wide support to avoid stretching the shoulders. Store clean and dry in a cool place away from direct sunlight, heaters, hot cars and sharp folds.
Rinse sand and salt from the zip and close hook-and-loop tabs so they cannot snag the fabric. Never force a jammed zip. Use only the zip maker’s specified lubricant and storage position; ordinary wax or silicone is not suitable for every specialist zip.
Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, bleach or use solvents. Follow the supplied care instructions for this suit and its zip before using any cleaning or maintenance product.
