Kids Wetsuit Size Chart
Find your child's height row, then check the weight range. Classic fit: roomier chest, legs end at the ankle.
| Height (no shoes) | Size: fits best at this weight | Heavier than the range? Go one size up | Age (guide only) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3′5½″–3′10¾″ (105–119 cm) | XS: 41–55 lb | S: 56–70 lb | 4–6 |
| 3′11″–4′3¼″ (119–130 cm) | S: 51–65 lb | M: 66–90 lb | 6–8 |
| 4′3½″–4′6¼″ (131–138 cm) | M: 61–85 lb | L: 86–105 lb | 7–9 |
| 4′6½″–4′10¼″ (138–148 cm) | L: 76–100 lb | XL: 101–125 lb | 9–11 |
| 4′10½″–5′1¾″ (149–157 cm) | XL: 91–115 lb | XXL: 116–135 lb | 10–13 |
| 5′2″–5′5¾″ (157–167 cm) | XXL: 106–130 lb | 3XL: 131–155 lb | 12–16 |

- 1. Measure height with no shoes: heels against a wall, look straight ahead, mark the wall with a flat book on the head and measure floor to mark.
- 2. Weigh this month: bathroom scale, light clothes. Don't use an old check-up number; kids gain 5–7 lb a year.
- 3. Height picks the row, then check the weight range. Weight inside the range → that size. Heavier → the next size up. Lighter than the range → the chest will be loose; we don't recommend it.
- 4. Don't size up to grow into it (the chest gets loose and lets water in), and don't size down (the body and legs get too short).
- Examples: 4′6″, 75 lb → M. 4′11″, 115 lb → XL. 5′4″, 145 lb → 3XL (one size up). 4′6″, 55 lb → not recommended.
- Under 3′5½″, over 5′10½″, or lighter than the range for the height: this suit is not a good fit. Size guide based on US children's body data (CDC 2021–23).

Dressing Tips
- [important] Please read the size chart first
- A proper fitting wetsuit will be challenging to put on when dry. (Pro Tip: Keeping your socks on will allow your feet to slide in much easier!)
- Once on, lift your arms over your head and stretch out your shoulders. This move should only be slightly restricting.
- You should be able to squat down and move your arms easily
- Contact us to exchange/refund, if there is any quality issue in 12 months
