Care & Maintenance
- Rinse with fresh water after every dive – short dives still expose the neoprene to salt.
- Hang to dry in the shade; avoid direct sun which stiffens neoprene over time.
- Store loosely; avoid folding tight at the zip or seam lines.
- Replace when the neoprene becomes stiff or the zip no longer seals properly.

Just got my Poseidon Black Line Shorty 1.5mm and I must say, it’s amazing! The material is so soft and flexible, I feel like I’m not even wearing a wetsuit. The design is perfect for warm water conditions, and I love how lightweight it is. It’s perfect for travel and everyday water use. My only complaint is that the seams could be a bit more reinforced.

Can I really trust the material used in this wetsuit to be durable over time?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your question about the durability of the material used in our Poseidon Black Line Shorty 1.5mm wetsuit. We’re proud to say that our wetsuits are made from high-quality 1.5mm neoprene, which is designed to provide both flexibility and thermal protection while being gentle on the skin. To address your concern about durability, we’ve found that our neoprene construction holds up well to heavy use and can withstand the rigors of frequent washing and storage. In fact, many of our customers have reported wearing their wetsuits for hundreds of dives without noticing a significant decline in performance. However, to get the most out of your wetsuit, we recommend storing it in a cool, dry place when not in use, avoiding exposure to direct sunlight, and washing it by hand with a mild detergent. We’d love to hear about your own experiences with our wetsuit and any tips you might have for maintaining its durability.

I’ve been using this wetsuit for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed. The ergonomic cut and flatlock stitching ensure a snug, comfortable fit. I love how easy it is to put on and take off, and the sleek black design looks great. However, I wish it had more features for protection against marine life.

I love the Poseidon Black Line Shorty 1.5mm! I’ve worn it for several water sports, and it has performed flawlessly. The 1.5mm neoprene provides just the right amount of insulation, and the ergonomic fit feels comfortable and secure. My only gripe is that it takes a bit of practice to get the neoprene to break in properly, but otherwise, I’m thrilled with this purchase.

Has anyone else had issues with the flatlock seams being a bit scratchy? I’m not sure if it’s just me, but it’s been a bit annoying. Otherwise, the wetsuit is really great, and I’ve been loving the lightweight feel. Maybe they could improve the seams in future designs?

This Poseidon Black Line Shorty 1.5mm is a solid choice for warm water diving! It fits snugly and keeps me warm in tropical waters. However, I wish it were more versatile – I’d love to be able to use it in colder waters as well.
Caleb Chan –
Overall, I’m very pleased with the Poseidon Black Line Shorty 1.5mm! It’s comfortable, flexible, and provides good protection from sun, stings, and abrasions. My only minor complaint is that it can be a bit tricky to put on and take off, especially when you’re in a hurry.
Sophia Wong –
I just got my Poseidon Black Line Shorty 1.5mm and I’m not impressed. The material is way too thin for me, and it doesn’t provide enough insulation for cold water. I also don’t like the design, it looks a bit awkward. Maybe this wetsuit is better for tropical conditions, but for me, it’s not worth the price.
Rachel Chew –
Has anyone used this wetsuit for surfing? I’m thinking of getting one for my next surf trip, but I want to know if it’s suitable for the cooler water conditions. Any advice would be much appreciated!
Junhao Lo –
Hi Rachel, thanks for your question. Although the Poseidon Black Line Shorty 1.5mm is designed for warm water conditions, it’s still a great choice for cooler water surfing. However, you may want to consider a thicker wetsuit for colder temperatures. If you’re looking for a more versatile option, I’d recommend checking out our Poseidon Black Line 3/2mm Wetsuit, which offers better insulation for cooler conditions. Either way, I hope you find the perfect wetsuit for your next surf trip!
