The 2024 Seland Wetsuit Buyers Guide!
The Buyers Guide Is The Origin Of The Gear Store.
Welcome to the 2024 Wild Sky Guides Seland Wetsuit Buyers Guide.
This Buyers Guide is the product of many months of hard work. When Wild Sky Guides came to the PNW we quickly realized that the community lacked access to canyoning specific wetsuits. They were able to order them online, but without seeing them beforehand they didn’t have confidence they were getting the right size. All of the different options were confusing, we quickly realized that our 26 Seland wetsuits constituted the largest collection of canyoning wetsuits in Washington State!
Thus the Wild Sky Guides Shop was born!
We are proud to announce that anyone in the USA (Sorry Canada and Mexico) can now order any Seland wetsuit directly from our website and have it mailed express to their house. Arrival time is around 7 days!
Now, onto the buyers guide!

Sizing Your Seland Wetsuit Tips And Tricks: Buyers Guide Part 4
Canyoning wetsuits are a critical piece of safety equipment. By keeping you warm they keep you alive. But, since canyoning is such a niche sport in the US it is hard to get your hands on a Seland Wetsuit before you buy it. In the past this resulted in a lot of guesswork and poorly fitting wetsuits. Our Seland wetsuit sizing guide aims to help you in the decision making process. Suits are expensive, you want to be able to buy with confidence!
Conclusion:
Thank you to Nagore and Borja for meeting me at the Seland Headquarters in Urduliz, Pais Vasco. They spent many hours answering lots of my questions about Seland products and history. None of this would have been possible without them.
Seland makes very high quality wetsuits, and you should be confident that you are ordering the right size before you buy. Our hope is that this buyers guide helps you to buy with confidence!
