Men's recreational swimming wetsuits are very popular for wearing in pools, oceans, rivers, and lakes. Wetsuits worn for swimming come in full length and springsuit styles. Keep in mind the amount of stretch the wetsuit has to offer in the upper body, more stretch usually means more comfort and range of motion. While wetsuits offer some buoyancy, they are not meant to be used as floatation. It is important to be a good swimmer and if you need a swim board or a personal floatation device, consider the options before heading out. Check the temperature rating of the wetsuit you are considering purchasing and always use the size chart located on each product page to assess your appropriate size. Swimming wetsuits offer men thermal protection as well as protection from UV rays and hazardous sea life.
