anyone know of a good place to buy a wetsuit around the hampshire/berkshire area?

(if there's a more appropriate place for this topic let me know because nothing stood out to me...)

Unless you are planning to re-create this:


(and therefore car-related)

The lounge would probably be a better place...

Rather randomly, I saw my nearest Sainsbury's SavaCentre selling wetsuits just a few days ago!

Know absolutely nothing about wetsuits but I do know there is a dive shop in Windsor, just by Windsor and Eton Riverside.

There's a scuba shop in Windsor by the Riverside railway station - no idea what it's like or if they do do wetsuits but it may be worth a call?

I bought one years ago at a place on the Farnham road towards Frensham Pond. I've no idea if it's still there.

Find the sizing guide useful and accurate, mine fitted a treat.

Divecrew in Bracknell
there are a few dive shops in Reading.
one that I know of in Slough, off the bath road ( by Quick Fit and Fiat but on the other side of the road)

But I get all my gear from the Divecrew have done for the last 10 years, always sorted me out with exactly what I need.

That's where I would recommend. Was at Thorpe last week and they have all their new season kit in the shop.
