Nyord Long Jane / Long John Wetsuit: The Summer Essential for Casual Surfers
You might be wondering what to wear when it's a bit too hot for a full wetsuit but too cold for a shorty.
That’s where the Nyord Long Jane / Long John wetsuit comes in.
This clever in-betweener from Nyord’s Solu range is perfect for warm-weather wave chasers, especially those who surf occasionally or are just getting started.
Made using the latest Yulex® natural rubber, it offers impressive stretch, comfort, and performance, all with significantly reduced environmental impact compared to traditional materials.
Why the Long Jane / Long John is a Smart Choice
Unlike a full suit that covers arms and legs, or a shorty that leaves both exposed, the Long Jane / Long John offers the best of both worlds:
- Full leg coverage for warmth and protection
- Sleeveless design for maximum paddling freedom and breathability
- Easy layering with a rash vest or wetsuit jacket as conditions change
It’s an excellent pick for summer surfs and trips overseas to warmer climates.
A lot of Europe and other destinations across the world require some wetsuit coverage, whether its for those early mornings surfs, or sunny days where some coverage is needed, this suit is the one for you.
