Gorgeous

This wetsuit is beautiful and well constructed. Excellent buoyancy and warmth. I am a UK10 & 5”2 - I double-checked my measurements against the size chart before ordering. The sizing is accurate, wetsuit fits like a glove.

10/10 felt like a mermaid

This wetsuit purchase (and my first swim) has been one of the best experiences I've ever had

This wetsuit purchase has been one of the best experiences I've ever had.

I'd basically given up on finding a wetsuit with 1) inclusive sizing, 2) that would allow me to do free and breast strokes, 3) wasn't thermal, and 4) was actually attractive/beautiful (not boring black). And then I stumbled upon The Dart in my online travels.

From the first email with Caitlin -- when I sent her my measurements and she advised on sizing -- to my first swim in the Pacific Ocean, this experience has been remarkable. I ordered on a Tuesday and was swimming the following Monday (yes, from the UK to British Columbia Canada in record time). I followed the enclosed instructions and getting the suit on was straightforward - no nail damage and yes, it went over my hips.

This wetsuit is more than just a wetsuit. It's kit that will change my life for the better because it opens up so many new swimming opportunities. I can swim longer into the shoulder months in our local lakes and I'm contemplating at 10km+ lake swim up island. Best of all, I can now join friends for ocean swims off Vancouver Island.

For those of you out there who've ever thought -- "oh no, a wetsuit isn't for my body" -- try The Dart.

It IS FOR YOU.
It WILL fit.

You'll look amazing, feel amazing, and glide through the water. Swim hard or paddle-laugh with friends... The Dart can do it all.
