Wetsuit Tops & Lycra
Wetsuit Tops, Jackets and Surf Vests for Every Condition
Cold-water layering, tropical surf trips, and the in-between mornings that can't make up their mind. Vissla wetsuit jackets, surf tops and sleeveless vests cover every session, built from premium limestone-based neoprene with the warmth, UV protection and performance stretch to back it up.
Eco-friendly materials, trusted by surfers worldwide, and honest about the job: more time in the water, less fuss getting there. Going full rubber instead? The wetsuit guide has you. Warm-water missions? Pair a top with boardshorts and call it a quiver.
Choosing a Wetsuit Top, Vest or Lycra in Australia
Three jobs, three tools. Lycra is sun armour: UV cover for boardshort days and all-day surf trips. A 1mm jacket adds core warmth without changing how your arms paddle. A 2mm front-zip jacket is basically the top half of a spring suit, for mornings with teeth. If you're stuck on jacket versus vest: vest under, jacket over. That's the rule. There are no other rules.
What's on the Rack
1mm short-sleeve and long-sleeve jackets from the High Seas II and the neoprene-free Natural Seas (Ocena™ bio-based foam, zero neoprene), 2mm front-zip jackets like the Solid Sets, the North Seas smooth-skin front zip for wind days, hooded lycra for all-day sun, and the Easy Seas Eco lycra range. Pair them with boardshorts in warm water, or layer up when the wind swings offshore and the morning gets honest.
Layering Pointer
A 1mm jacket over a 2/2 spring suit stretches your season a month either side of summer. Rinse the smooth-skin pieces gently and dry them out of the sun. Smoothie panels remember mistreatment.
