Shop open-cell spearfishing wetsuits suitable for Irish and European water conditions. Our expanding collection includes wetsuit jackets and trousers in different thicknesses for colder winter sessions, milder conditions and warmer-water travel.
A 7mm wetsuit is generally suited to colder water and longer winter sessions. A 5mm suit offers a balance of warmth and flexibility in milder conditions, while a 3mm suit is useful for warm water and travel.
A popular combination for Ireland is a 7mm jacket with 5mm high-waisted trousers. The thicker jacket provides additional warmth around the upper body, while the 5mm trousers reduce buoyancy around the legs and can help keep the legs down while surface swimming. For many divers, this 7mm/5mm combination provides a versatile setup for year-round spearfishing in Ireland, depending on individual cold tolerance and session length.
Fit is essential. A spearfishing wetsuit should seal closely against the body without restricting breathing, movement or equalisation. Complete your setup with spearfishing socks, weight belts and diving weights. Our spearfishing weight-belt guide explains how wetsuit thickness and buoyancy affect weighting.
