Stay warm for longer thanks to our thermal accessories! Each temperature range has its own outfit...
When we are in the water, we lose more than half of our body heat through our extremities (feet, hands, head).
Consequently, here are the recommended accessories:
- In water (>17°C) => Low neoprene shoes.
- In water (12 - 17°C): High booties (boots) and gloves.
- In water (7 - 12°C): High booties (boots), gloves, hood and hooded top...

Choose the right size
Surfing gloves should be a very tight fit to ensure optimal thermal efficiency. It is perfectly normal for it to feel like they are too tight when tried on dry. Choosing well-fitting gloves prevents them swelling with water in use.
Materials
5 mm surf gloves are made from 100% neoprene for guaranteed improved comfort during use.
3mm on the wrist for ease of donning and to avoid over-thickness of the wetsuit.
The neoprene is lined with synthetic fabric for increased resistance to wear.
Inner palm of the glove in GTV neoprene for better grip of the board.
The back of the glove is Neoprene Duramesh: Anti-wind
The inside of the gloves is made of Plush for faster drying.
Watertight assembly
The seams are stitched and glued to guarantee waterproofing and resistance.
The seams are "blind-stitched". the thread does not go all the way through the neoprene, preventing water from getting through.
The absence of threads on the inside avoids irritation and chafing.
An external seal on the seams further reinforces robustness and waterproofing.
