Not sure about your SEAC size? Here is a size guide to help you.

Find your Seac wetsuit size! Stop letting luck decide your comfort.

Unsure about your Seac size? Seac wetsuits, boots, fins... We help you find the perfect gear.

Finding the ideal wetsuit is a bit like searching for the Holy Grail: if it's too big, water circulates and you shiver; if it's too small, you can't breathe. At Seac Sub, we talk about an "Italian cut": a slim, ultra-fitted style that leaves no room for water pockets.

Here is our practical guide to stop hesitating in front of the Seac size chart. It is always a good idea to check reviews from other divers regarding comfort and fit before buying.

SEAC Size Guide

    1. Seac's secret: Calibrated sizes (LT, LP, MP)

    Seac's great strength is that they don't stop at simple S, M, or L. They offer variations for body types that fall outside the standards :

    • T (Tall): for slender divers. An LT (Large Tall) size has the width of an L but the length of an XL. No more short sleeves!

    • P (Plus / Large): for stockier builds. An LP (Large Plus) size offers more room in the chest without being too long in the legs.

    • MP (Medium Plus): very popular among women, this size provides comfort in the hips and chest without being too tall.

    2. Which model for your body type?

    The choice of model influences how the size feels:

    • Seac Komoda (Ultimate Comfort): thanks to Yamamoto neoprene, it is ultra-stretchy. It is more forgiving if you are between sizes. It fits like a "second skin".

    • Seac Space (The Inclusive): designed to fit all body shapes with flex zones at the elbows and knees.

    • Seac Master Dry (The Semi-Dry): be careful, its rigid zip does not stretch. If you are at the upper end of a size, don't hesitate to take one size up to avoid compression in the shoulders.

    3. Diver Reviews: Seac vs. Others

    Feedback from the field is unanimous: Seac runs small compared to brands like Aqualung or Mares.

    • An M in Seac often corresponds to an in-between S/M in Aqualung.

    • If you have gained 4 or 5 kg, your Seac may quickly become too tight because the cut is very precise.

    4. Pro Tips for Choosing Wisely

    1. Measure with a partner: ask for help to keep the tape measure horizontal at chest and hip level.

    2. Inseam matters: this is what prevents the suit from "bunching" at the knees.

    3. Donning the suit: for very snug models, use a little soap or plastic bags on your feet to slide in without forcing.

    4. The ultimate test: once the suit is on, squat down. If you can breathe without constraint and your movements are fluid, it's the right one!

    In doubt? If your measurements fall right between two sizes, always prioritize the smaller one for insulation, unless you are worried about restricted breathing.

        Details

        Choosing the Right Model

        • Full Hoods: offer maximum protection and may include features like nose flaps or chin pads. Ideal for cold water dives.
        • Face-Cut Hoods: offer flexibility for divers who prefer to use separate masks. Ensure the design is compatible with your diving mask.
        • Semi-Dry Hoods: designed for temperate water dives and may have features that minimize water entry while offering some breathability.

        Fit and Comfort

        • Avoid pressure zones: ensure the hood does not create pressure points on your head or neck. A fit that is too tight can be uncomfortable, while a fit that is too loose can allow water to enter.

        Note: It is always a good idea to check reviews from other divers regarding comfort and fit before buying.

        Required Measurements:

        • Hand Circumference: measure around the widest part of your hand, excluding the thumb.
        • Hand Length: measure from the base of the wrist to the tip of the middle finger.

        Details:

        • Thickness: the greater the thickness, the more heat is retained, but this may reduce flexibility.
        • Double Lining: for added comfort and insulation, choose gloves with an inner lining.

        Note: It is always a good idea to check reviews from other divers regarding comfort and fit before buying.

        Seac Diving Boots Size Guide

          Required Measurements:

          • Length: Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the length of your foot from the heel to the tip of your longest toe. Take this measurement at the end of the day when your feet are slightly more swollen for a more accurate size.
          • Width: Measure the width of your foot at its widest point.
          • Thickness: If your feet are particularly thick or thin, this can also influence the choice of size.

          Details

          • In general, Seac diving boots are designed to be worn with diving socks or neoprene socks. It is therefore often recommended to take a size slightly larger than your usual size to accommodate these accessories.
          • Dive Type: For cold water dives, a slightly larger size may be preferable to allow for better insulation with thicker socks.
          • Specific Model: Some models may have a tighter or looser fit depending on their design. Check reviews from other divers for additional advice.
