FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before making a purchase

What does Aropec specialise in?
Aropec is a Taiwanese brand focused on neoprene wetsuits, rash guards, and water sports thermal protection. The brand has been manufacturing neoprene products for the Asia-Pacific market for decades, producing suits sized and cut for regional body proportions rather than scaled from European templates. Their range spans snorkelling to recreational scuba to water sports and freediving.
What Aropec wetsuit thickness suits Malaysian diving?
A 3mm full suit handles most Malaysian diving conditions year-round - sea temperatures around Redang, Tioman, Mabul, and Layang Layang stay between 27u00b0C and 30u00b0C through most of the year. Aropec's 3mm suits are cut with pre-curved arms and legs that reduce resistance during finning, and the back zip design allows easy self-dressing. For snorkelling where thermal protection is secondary to UV coverage, their 1.5mm suits weigh almost nothing in a day bag.
How does Aropec approach sizing for Southeast Asian divers?
Aropec uses Asia-Pacific body proportions as the sizing baseline. This produces suits that fit correctly across the shoulders and torso without requiring the strap tension or extra neoprene folding that happens when Southeast Asian divers buy suits graded to European or American proportions. The difference is most pronounced at the shoulder width and torso length, where imported suits are consistently too large on smaller Asian frames.
Does Aropec produce wetsuits for freediving as well as scuba?
Aropec makes both open-cell lined and smooth-skin freediving suits alongside their scuba-oriented range. Open-cell interior lining increases warmth-to-thickness ratio and reduces water flushing during dynamic breath-hold training. Freediving-specific cuts use longer leg panels and shorter torso lengths than scuba suits to reduce restriction in the streamlined position freedivers maintain throughout the duck-dive and descent.
What is the best way to prolong the life of an Aropec wetsuit?
Rinse inside and out after every dive with cool fresh water - salt crystals caught in neoprene cells abrade the material from the inside if left to dry in place. Hang inside-out in shade to dry evenly, never expose to direct sunlight which accelerates neoprene breakdown faster than saltwater itself. Store flat or loosely rolled rather than compressed in a bag, and condition rubber seals at wrist and ankle with neoprene-safe conditioner seasonally.
Does Aropec make accessories beyond wetsuits?
The Aropec range includes rash guards, thermal vests, gloves, and hoods alongside their full suit options. Rash guards are particularly popular for snorkelling and water sports where a full wetsuit is thermal overkill but UV protection and jellyfish coverage are still needed. The thermal vest worn under a wetsuit adds warmth without the bulk of a thicker neoprene suit - useful for Sabah divers where occasional thermoclines bring cooler water unexpectedly.
