Lotic outdoor swimming wetsuit

Wild Swimming Brothers Review Lotic open water swimming wetsuit

By Alice Peyredieu

I couldn’t recommed the Alpkit Lotic highly enough, super warm and thick without sacrificing on comfort and flexibility. My only critism was that there isn’t a velco patch above the bum to stick the zip string to while swimming but other than that it’s baptism of fire at the Double Brutal swim proved the Lotic to be up there with the best wetsuits I’ve worn!

Verdict: Excellent range of motion, very warm with low abrasion around the neck 94%
