What kind of water temperatures is this suit good for? We're taking a 4 and 6 year old to a beach with 60-65 degreee F water.

That suit should be perfect, my 5 year old wore his earlier this year in 60 degree and cooler water, he is in a short arm short leg suit now that the water is upper 60s I've surfed my entire life in RI and have had lots if suits, this is a great suit for the price

No it won't keep you warm in cold water the fabric isn't that thick. It's better for sun protection.

Our boys never had a problem with the temperature. we've been using it for 2 months, and it still goes to 105* (a completely acceptable temp) if you're worried, splash some on your wrist- if it stings its too hot.

I am not sure what % but it is flexible and I would think a good suit for water aerobics...I thought of using it for the same but so far have only used in the ocean. It is probably the right thickness because when you go to higher, say 2mm and 3mm the suits are generally less flexible with increasing thickness. This one is nice and thin and I use it in the summer when the water is between ~68-72F for surfing, skin diving, and boogey boarding. I like to be warm and also prevent sunburn so this works well. If I get cold the next time I am in the indoor pool, this is the suit I would use - not a 2 or 3mm suit.

Well I live in Seattle, so the temp hasn't gotten too high here- 60s- but we haven't had any problems with overheating. I probably wouldn't use it during the summertime unless you have air conditioning going- I keep their rooms between 68-70 and they're fine. I just put him in light cotton pjs-(carters 2piece pjs) and socks. I have noticed that the polyester type 2piece pjs seem to keep him on the warmer side, so intend not to put socks with those or only use those on colder nights. As it gets warmer I'll use it with just at shirt or onesie underneath. But once summer hits, I either switch to the thin cotton sleep sack or just put them to bed in their pjs. So it probably depends how hot it is where you live and how warm you keep your house but my son doesn't get overheated if his room is kept between that 65-70 mark. Hope that's helpful :)

Anything above 40F, as far as we can tell. Useless as a temp indicator, but fun for the kid to play with in the tub, so we love it nonetheless.

I love the vest in water temps between 72-78. I don't know if it would keep you warm in water below that. it probably would, I just don't know for sure. Water does not come in through the arm holes.

I would say 40-45 max on the medium. Some kids are more buoyant than others - at least it seems they are - If it seems like it's struggling to keep the child afloat then go to large.

Yes, it works typically like an adult wet suit, my son is very similar in water. Only caviat is when you take them out of the water, because it is still wet, they may catch a chill outside of the pool. But while in the water they'll be fine.

The smallest size is a 2T and to be honest I think that might be too big for you. Keep in mind the arms and legs should be a snug fit or the suit doesn't offer much warmth. A 2T might fit ok length and waist wise, but I doubt it will keep water from getting inside and touching your child's skin.

This is NOT a wet suit (or dry suit) jacket. When you first hit the water it makes you maybe a bit colder for a few seconds, but then helps you be warmer. What it does best is keeps your shoulders from being cold. I use it for Water Aerobics, where we are in 10' of 78-84 degree pool water with flotation belts (remember, ocean water feels warmer at lower temps than does fresh water). We are upright with our shoulders out of the water. Will it keep you warm in water below 76 or so? NO.

You will get wet. The vest is a good option for warmer water. A jacket is good for cooler water. I recommend not buying any item from wetsuit wear house unless you like sewing it yourself.

I haven't taken it to the beach. I'm sure it would be ok. My 4.5 year old really puts it to the test in the pool. He is still learning to swim, jumps in every chance he gets, and the vest still held up. Hope this helps.

It does get a little warm. I usually put my daughter in very light cool clothing when I use it. And I make sure that she's well hydrated. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area.

at least 10 degree's. The water was freezing and I kept the cover on it for two days and it was perfect. Hope that helps.

3mm Good enough for an 80&lt; degree pool. I bought another one Speedo thermal wetsuit. Which I found after receipt that it is 1mm. I found it weird that the Speedo says thermal wetsuit while this says spring suit. Because this was way thicker and warmer, the speedo was really more like a spring suit and this a thermal suit. It's great quality. I have been washing it in washing machine delicate cycle every week with regular detergent for 6 months straight now. Still looks new. Still thick.

This should be okay on beach. We use it in a river with young non-swimming kids and they enjoy splashing around in it. They do go on the river in inflatable rafts wearing these and they have worked fine for that as well. The children are never near the water unmonitored in these however.
