Waterproof W4 7MM Wetsuit Men's
The Waterproof W4 7mm men’s wetsuit brings together a back-zip layout, double cuff seals and reinforced contact areas in a shaped full suit. This established model suits divers looking for substantial neoprene coverage and practical details for regular scuba use.
Features and benefits
- 7mm CR neoprene: a full insulating layer with a men’s anatomical cut. Pre-bent arms and legs and Wave Flex panels support a relaxed diving position.
- Double Glideskin cuffs: smooth inner wrist and ankle seals help reduce water exchange. YKK Vislon cuff zips open for dressing and close over the seal arrangement.
- Reinforced knees and elbows: shaped rubber knee pads and ToughTex fabric protect areas exposed to abrasion while allowing the joints to bend.
- Grip beneath your equipment: polyurethane seat and shoulder reinforcement helps reduce slipping and everyday wear. Computer strap retention helps keep your instrument in position.
- 10mm spine pad: contoured padding adds cushioning and insulation along the back.
- Back zip with an extra seal: the backing arrangement helps reduce flushing through the entry zip. An adjustable collar and gusseted front comfort zip let you ease the neck opening between dives.
- Comfortable lining: plush inner lining and stretch textile panels add comfort against the body.
- WPAD storage option: the right-thigh dock accepts the optional expandable WPAD pocket; the pocket is sold separately.

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.
Handle smooth seals and inner surfaces gently. Avoid scraping, scrubbing, fingernails and jewellery, and do not stretch a seal by pulling on a small section of it.
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.
