Why Choose Picture Wetsuits?

For every surf session, your wetsuit should act as a true second skin. At Picture, we have developed ranges that refuse to compromise between technical performance and sustainability. Our models are crafted from Eicoprene, a sustainable alternative to traditional neoprene made from natural rubber, limestone, and recycled tyres, ensuring a reduced footprint on your favourite playground.

The quality of our products lies in sharp technical details designed to offer you total freedom of movement. We use reinforced seams and GBS (Glued and Blind Stitched) technology to guarantee a perfect watertight seal and increased resistance to salt-water wear. The Fuse Cut finish at the wrists and ankles limits water entry while extending the life of the product. Whether you opt for a 3/2, 4/3, or 5/4 full suit, you benefit from optimal insulation tailored to every water temperature.

Our various ranges cater to every need. The Equation range features our best insulation technologies for cold water, while the Dome range focuses on flexibility and ultra-fast drying. For the summer season, our Meta models and surf shorties offer style and lightweight comfort. By choosing Picture, you are investing in a durable men’s wetsuit designed to last season after season, all while benefiting from our expertise in eco-design. Don’t hesitate to check out our women’s wetsuits to kit out the whole Picture Family!

Frequently Asked Questions

Which thickness (3/2, 4/3, or 5/4) should I choose based on water temperature?

Choosing the right thickness is crucial for your thermal comfort. For warm summer waters (19°C and above), a 3/2 wetsuit or a shorty is ideal. If you are surfing in cool waters (14°C to 18°C), you should turn to a 4/3 men’s wetsuit. For winter sessions or very cold water (9°C to 13°C), a 5/4 men’s suit with an integrated hood is essential to retain your body heat.

What is the difference between a back-zip and a front-zip wetsuit?

The entry system affects both flexibility and how watertight the suit is. A front-zip (chest-zip) wetsuit offers better freedom of movement across the back and limits water entry, which is ideal for long sessions. A back-zip makes the suit much easier to put on, often making it a good choice for beginners or those who prioritise speed in the changing room, though it is slightly less airtight.

What is the best men’s wetsuit?

The best wetsuit is the one that matches your style of riding and the conditions. If you are looking for pure performance and warmth, the Picture Equation range is a industry benchmark. If you prefer flexibility for explosive manoeuvres, the Dome range is made for you. All our men's suits use bio-sourced materials to respect the ocean.

What size should I choose for a men’s wetsuit?

For a full wetsuit to be effective, it must be perfectly fitted, without excessive creasing under the arms or at the knees. A well-chosen size ensures that the thin layer of water trapped inside is heated by your body. Refer to our size guide by taking your chest, waist, and height measurements to find the perfect "second skin" fit, which is vital for all your water-based activities.

What is the difference between Neoprene and Eicoprene?

This is a question we are often asked within the Picture Family! To put it simply, Eicoprene is a foam that possesses exactly the same technical characteristics, flexibility, and insulation profile as classic neoprene.

The real revolution lies in the origin of the materials. While traditional neoprene is a synthetic rubber derived from the petrochemical industry, Eicoprene is a more sustainable alternative. It is made from an innovative blend of limestone (70%) and recycled tyres (30%). By choosing a suit designed with this technology, you enjoy high-performance thermal protection while drastically reducing reliance on fossil fuels for your surf kit.

Once your session is over, prolong the Picture experience with our lifestyle collections designed for the after-surf. Whether you’re chilling on the sand or heading off to explore, discover our ultra-comfortable outdoor lifestyle shorts and our uniquely designed short-sleeved shirts. If the temperature drops at the end of the day, slip into one of our lifestyle hoodies or jumpers for immediate warmth. And because adventure is better when shared, invite your ride partners to explore our women’s wetsuit range: technical and stylish models so the whole tribe is ready to charge.
