Whether you’re exploring Langkawi’s open-water courses, or venturing to new reefs and wrecks, this wetsuit delivers the warmth, flexibility, and comfort you need on every descent.
Care & Maintenance
- Rinse after every use and wash regularly – lycra holds onto salt and body oils.
- Machine wash on gentle in cold water; avoid bleach.
- Hang or lay flat to dry – tumble drying degrades lycra over time.
- Store away from sunlight when not in use; UV fades the fabric and weakens fibres.

Wei Ling Tan –
Love the bright pink colour—really makes me easy to spot when diving with my group. The suit is comfortable and didn’t irritate my skin even after a long snorkel session. Only thing is the zipper feels a bit stiff at first.
Junhao Lo –
Hi Wei Ling, thank you for your kind words and helpful feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoy the comfort and visibility of the suit. For the zipper, a bit of gentle lubrication can help it move more smoothly—please let us know if you need further assistance.

Is this skin suit suitable to wear under a 5mm wetsuit for extra warmth when I go diving in Tioman?

Harsha Kumar –
The fit is really snug and I can move around easily underwater. Dried very quickly after my beach dive, which is a plus. Wish there were more colour options though.
