Silvertip Cold Water Wetsuit

Fleece lined cold water swimming wetsuit


Increased buoyancy and thermally lined, Silvertip is the ideal wetsuit for swimming in cold water

Silvertip Wetsuit Women’s – cold water comfort, swimmer approved. Silvertip is our fleece-lined wetsuit built for year-round wild swims — from crisp morning dips to full winter submersions. With a women’s specific fit, it’s warm, flexible, and proven to go the distance. Don’t let the price tag fool you — this is a seriously good suit.

Designed to swim further in cold water

The fleece lining on the Silvertip traps heat by minimising water movement inside the suit — meaning you stay warmer, for longer, without needing bulky thickness. The suit balances warmth and freedom by using thinner, more flexible panels across the chest, arms and shoulders, giving you a natural stroke even on longer swims.

Glideskin outer reduces drag and helps retain heat, while abrasion-resistant neoprene on the lower legs adds durability. The rear zip with long lanyard makes changing simple, and a discreet internal pouch stashes your key or emergency snack.

Trusted by swimmers who stay out longer

Silvertip is loved by wild swimmers across the UK — from those braving their first winter swim to experienced long-distance dippers.

Lower impact: built to last and fully recyclable

Silvertip is made from Yamamoto limestone neoprene — softer, stretchier and more durable than standard petroleum-based foams. It’s also naturally water-repellent, giving you excellent insulation and longer-lasting performance.

And when it’s finally swum its last? Send it back to us. We’ll recycle it through our Circular Flow partnership to be made into new neoprene products — keeping materials in the loop and out of landfill.
