Brands - Billabong

Billabong offers neoprene gear for surfing throughout the year, including full wetsuits, shorties, tops and accessories. The range includes options for men, women and kids. Choose thickness according to water temperature: a 3/2 mm wetsuit suits temperate water, while 4/3 and 5/4 mm models provide more insulation as the water gets colder.

Fits and entry systems vary by model. Chest-zip designs support freedom of movement, while a back zip can make getting changed easier. Stretch panels support movement, glued and blind-stitched seams help limit water entry, and thermal linings add comfort. Full suits cover the body, while shorties and lighter neoprene tops are useful for warmer-water sessions. Explore Billabong men’s full wetsuits and Billabong women’s wetsuits to compare available fits and thicknesses.

The Furnace lines focus on warmth and thermal comfort, while Absolute and Foil offer versatile options for regular sessions. Selected Natural wetsuits use natural rubber and recycled materials; fabrics and linings vary by product. To choose your gear, consider water temperature, session length and how easily you get cold. A close fit helps limit water entry while leaving your shoulders free to paddle.

Check the sizing and construction details for each suit; the right size should feel close without pulling across the shoulders or restricting your paddle stroke. Browse men’s 3/2 mm wetsuits and women’s 3/2 mm wetsuits for temperate water. For colder water, consider thickness and lining, especially if you take breaks between sets. Tops and shorties suit milder days; gloves, boots and hoods add protection as temperatures fall.
