Vissla 7 Seas Raditude 3/2mm Chest Zip Fullsuit
If you have been searching for the Vissla 7 Seas Raditude 3/2mm chest zip wetsuit, this is the full length suit built for the days when the water drops just cool enough to need real coverage. The 3/2mm rating pairs a thicker panel through the core with a thinner panel through the arms and legs, the standard approach for balancing warmth against paddle mobility.
Chest Zip Entry
- Chest zip closure
- 3/2mm thickness
- Full length fullsuit cut
A chest zip entry seals higher on the torso than a back zip, which keeps flushing (water working its way in and out of the suit) to a minimum and helps the suit trap warmth more consistently through a session.
Who It Is For
This fullsuit suits surfers who are on the water through the shoulder seasons in South Florida, dawn patrol sessions, and any stretch where the air is warm but the water still has a bite to it. A 3/2mm suit is a step up from a spring suit or top, giving full arm and leg coverage without the bulk of a heavier winter suit.
Getting In and Caring for It
Work a chest zip suit on slowly, easing your legs and arms in before pulling the zip closed, since neoprene of this weight is more forgiving than a heavier suit but still benefits from a patient entry. After every session, rinse the suit inside and out with fresh water and hang it to dry out of direct sun, folded over a wide hanger rather than a thin one, to protect the seams and the zip mechanism over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does 3/2mm mean on a wetsuit?
- It refers to the neoprene thickness in millimeters, with the first number for the torso panel and the second for the arms and legs, so a 3/2mm suit runs slightly thicker through the core for warmth while keeping the limbs more flexible.
- What is a chest zip wetsuit?
- A chest zip wetsuit closes with a zipper positioned across the upper chest rather than down the back, which seals higher on the body and helps reduce water flushing into the suit during a session.
- Is a 3/2mm fullsuit good for South Florida water temperatures?
- A 3/2mm fullsuit like this Vissla 7 Seas Raditude is suited to cooler shoulder-season sessions where a spring suit is not quite enough coverage but a heavier winter suit would be more than needed.
- How do I care for a neoprene wetsuit like this one?
- Rinse it inside and out with fresh water after each use and hang it to dry away from direct sunlight on a wide hanger to protect the seams and the chest zip mechanism.
