1.5mm Wetsuits

1.5mm Wetsuits

1.5mm Wetsuits – Warm Water Performance for Australian Conditions, offering lightweight protection without sacrificing mobility or comfort. This thickness is ideal for tropical and summer conditions, where insulation is required primarily for sun protection, wind chill, and extended time in the water rather than cold-water warmth. SALT 1.5mm wetsuits provide a minimal, flexible layer that supports long sessions without overheating.

These wetsuits are particularly well suited to Northern Queensland, the Great Barrier Reef, Western Australia’s northern coastline, the Northern Territory, and summer conditions across coastal Australia. In these regions, water temperatures often sit well above traditional winter ranges, making a 1.5mm wetsuit the preferred option for comfort and breathability. Unlike thicker suits, 1.5mm wetsuits allow unrestricted movement for swimming, paddling, freediving, and spearfishing in warmer climates.

The SALT Abyss 1.5mm range is constructed using flatlock seams, prioritising comfort, flexibility, and breathability for high-movement activities. Available across tops, pants, shorts, spring suits, and accessories, these wetsuits are ideal for summer surf, tropical diving, shallow reef exploration, and long days in the water. If you’re diving or surfing in warm Australian waters where heavier insulation is unnecessary, SALT 1.5mm wetsuits deliver practical protection with a natural, lightweight feel.
