Natural movement meets cold water confidence
Whether you’re dipping in Derwent Water or pushing distance off the Devon coast, Lotic keeps you streamlined, supported and warm. Thicker panels in the thighs, bum and back lift your legs to reduce drag and help you swim more efficiently. Thinner neoprene at the shoulders, chest and arms gives you full range of motion for easy, natural strokes.
Glideskin neoprene sheds water, cuts down resistance and reduces heat loss. The inner fit is soft and forgiving, while the nylon-faced neoprene on the calves adds durability where it counts. Thoughtful extras like a long rear zip puller and internal valuables pouch make outdoor swimming simpler.
Flashes of red at the collar, cuffs and shoulders add visibility without overstatement.
Swimmer tested, swimmer trusted
From first swims to long winter soaks, Lotic has become a favourite for its warmth, flexibility and fit — especially for smaller frames.
“Perfect cosy fit for a petite girl… second skin, great for wild swimming, paddleboarding, sailing – tried and tested!” – Katie
“Definitely helps with buoyancy and keeps me warmer in the cooler months.” – Viv
“The temptation to cold water swim is now a reality. Fits like a dream.” – Jenny
Lightweight, reliable, and swimmer-approved — Lotic gives you one less thing to think about when stepping into cold water.
Lower impact: built to last and fully recyclable
Lotic is made from 100% Yamamoto limestone neoprene — a high-performing, non-petroleum alternative. At end of life, we’ll recycle your suit through our partnership with Circular Flow, helping to close the loop and keep wetsuits out of landfill.
And like everything we make, it’s backed by our 3 Year Alpine Bond.
