Children's wetsuit 5/3 mm for cooler conditions
Rip Curl Kids Omega 5/3 Back Zip is a neoprene wetsuit designed for children intended for swimming in lower temperatures. The thickness of 5/3 mm provides significantly better insulation than thinner summer wetsuits, making this model ideal when a child needs more warmth during prolonged contact with water and wind.
This is a practical option for young surfers, children starting their adventure with a board, and active users who spend a lot of time by the water outside the summer season.
Back zip — easier to put on
The back zipper makes it easier to put on and take off the wetsuit. For children, this is important as quick changing reduces the tugging on the material and shortens preparation time before entering the water. The back zip system works particularly well with thicker wetsuits that naturally cling more to the body.
E5 and E3 neoprene
This model uses a combination of E5 neoprene and E3 neoprene. E5 neoprene improves flexibility in areas that work harder during swimming, paddling, and playing on the board. E3 neoprene supports the durability of the construction, allowing the wetsuit to better withstand regular use, frequent putting on and typical children's activity at the spot.
GB Seam and increased thermal comfort
GB Seam, which features glued and blind stitched seams, helps to limit water penetration through panel joins. In cooler conditions, this is significant, as a reduced amount of water entering the inside allows for prolonged thermal comfort.
The 5/3 mm construction is suitable for sessions where regular summer neoprene is too thin, yet the child still needs freedom of movement for learning, swimming, and water activities.
Reinforcements in high-stress areas
Critical stress point taping reinforces areas that are particularly susceptible to material wear. This is important for children's wetsuits, which are often used intensively, put on in a hurry, and taken off after each session. The Rip Curl Kids Omega 5/3 Back Zip is a good choice for children who need a warmer, comfortable, and easy-to-use wetsuit for cooler days by the water.
