We recently shared a post detailing how difficult it’s been getting replenishment wetsuit stock from our manufacturer/supplier. And as we also said this isn’t unique to NCW alone – many businesses are in similar positions.
The irony is how busy winter’s been for us following the crazy summer of 2020. It’s no secret outdoor recreational related businesses have seen unprecedented demand in the face of COVID with everyone wanting to maximise their stay at home time.
NCW always strives to do it’s best for customers, that’s why we do so well with NCW Google reviews. And we feel bad, even when things are out of our control, if we can’t fulfill orders because of lacking stock.
So it’s with a huge sigh of relief that our latest delivery of gear landed at The Rubber Shack (NCW HQ) a few days back. Having unloaded and sorted it’s now ready ahead of the new spring season to get you all (men, women and children) enjoying the water as much as possible.

We get a lot of recommendations from wild and open water swimmers that find this suit really flexible to swim in and durable too, take a look at our wild swimming knowledge page here.

A note on ankle and wrist seams. All seams are snug fitting and prevent flush. Silicone anti slip stops riding up.

Want to read our fair returns policy first?BUT. As has been the case these last few months NCW’s wetsuits, wetsuit accessories and associated add ons tend to fly out the door quick smart. So if you see gear you want/need then now’s the time. Don’t put it off as we’ll no doubt run out again. And please don’t think this is a shallow sales ploy. It isn’t. We’re merely stating facts and trying to communicate the situation so you don’t miss out.
