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.

Glideskin finish reduces drag and slows heat loss
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.
“This wetsuit is brilliant – so warm and comfortable. Totally changed my cold water confidence.” – Gill
“Used it in 6°C water and it was super warm. I’ve kept swimming all winter.” – Martin
“After a dozen swims down to 4°C — faultless.” – Chris
Kate Rew, founder of the Outdoor Swimming Society, wore her Silvertip for one of her all-time greatest swims — 24km down the Oulanka, Finland — and still swears by it.
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.
