Size Guide
Who Are Alder Wetsuits?
Alder Wetsuits was founded in the early 1970s when surfing was just beginning to grow in the UK. The company started in a small Cornwall workshop, where passionate surfers and wetsuit enthusiasts aimed to create high-quality products. They wanted wetsuits that kept them warm in British waters while offering performance and durability.
From the beginning, Alder Wetsuits focused on quality and innovation. The founders knew that British surfing needed wetsuits capable of withstanding the North Atlantic's harsh conditions. They experimented with new materials, construction techniques, and design features to make their products stand out.
As Alder Wetsuits expanded, their reputation for excellence also grew. Their wetsuits became the top choice for many leading UK surfers. Both professional and amateur surfers appreciated Alder’s commitment to performance and comfort, making the brand well-known in the British surfing community.
A key innovation that set Alder apart was their use of neoprene, a newly introduced synthetic rubber material. By refining its composition and construction, Alder created wetsuits that were more durable, comfortable, and responsive. This breakthrough allowed surfers to stay in the water longer and perform better, even in freezing temperatures.
Over the years, Alder continued improving wetsuit design with seamless construction, strategic panel placement, and advanced insulation systems. These innovations kept Alder at the forefront of the industry. Their dedication to improvement ensured their products remained relevant in a constantly evolving market.
Beyond innovation, Alder Wetsuits focused on sustainability. Aware of wetsuits production's environmental impact, they explored eco-friendly materials and processes. This led to the development of wetsuits made from limestone-based neoprene, reducing reliance on petroleum-based materials. Additionally, Alder introduced water-based adhesives and recycled linings to lower their carbon footprint while maintaining high quality.
Alder’s influence reached beyond the UK. As their international reputation grew, surfers in Ireland, Scandinavia, and North America embraced their wetsuits. The brand’s ability to create high-performance wetsuits for extreme conditions made them popular among those braving icy waves.
Today, Alder Wetsuits remains a leader in the surf industry, developing cutting-edge wetsuits for surfers worldwide. Their legacy of quality, innovation, and sustainability has cemented their place in the surfing community. Moving forward, their commitment to excellence ensures surfers can rely on Alder for years to come.
