This imperfect item is non-returnable and non-refundable.

Important: This garment is not perfect. It is being sold at this special price because there are some creases in the neoprene.

While it doesn't meet the normal Vivida aesthetic standard, it's still a perfectly functional wetsuit. We didn't want to add perfectly useable items to landfill, so instead, we're giving you a chance to embrace the imperfections.

---

This is a tight fitting design. Please refer to the size guide above for fit advice.

Updated Design - We heard you, and have now made the front zip of the Linda Wetsuit longer, to make it even easier to get into and out of.

Made for swimming and surfing, the eco-chic reversible shortie Linda Wetsuit is the perfect match for year-round water adventures: whether that’s a sunset kite, ocean freedive exploration, a moment of paddle-board peace, or even a wild-swim before work.

She is one of our best-selling pieces of women’s swimwear, and for good reason. The Linda Wetsuit’s flexible, sustainable 2mm neoprene, offers the ideal mix of insulation, ease of movement, elegance and connection with nature.

The unique fully reversible design gives you two suits in one. Choose between sleek graphite shades or the artistic embellishment of our Map of Dreams print. Every aspect of the Linda Wetsuit’s thoughtful design is made for the ocean goddess within you.

How Real Water Women Find the Fit

UK 10 (S)

I bought this for summer SUP - it's extremely comfortable, sizing is perfectly true to the size guide and I think it looks gorgeous.

- Susan R, Leicester, UK


UK 12 (M)

The suit was a bit tricky to get on and off the first time, but after a couple of goes, it’s no problem. My body measurements fall between the Small and Medium sizes (I’m a UK 10 top / 69cm waist and a UK 12 bottom / 101cm hips), so I choose the Medium size and it fits me well.” 

- Miranda M, London, UK


The reviews helped me to decide on the size M (I'm [a UK] size 10, 170cm) It's a snug fit, and slightly higher cut on bottom than I would have liked, but I'm keeping it as otherwise I love the reversible colours and I know I'll wear it for Cornish swimming on cool summer days.

- Carolyn L, New Malden, UK


Beautiful design and colours, nice fit, not too skimpy on the bum either like some shortie wetsuits are! Perfect for autumn temperature dipping, good flexibility for surfing. I'm size 10 - 12, and the medium fits perfectly.

- Anonymous, Swansea, UK


UK 14 (L)

I bought the Linda for autumn/spring open water swimming.  I am 175cm tall & 80kg and the large is a perfect fit.  The sleeves are a good length and allow for good overlap with my gloves. Although a surfing garment this works well for swimming.

- Hazel S, Royal Leamington Spa, UK


I really love the cut of it and how it sits, on me, I feel really secure but not overly covered up, I'm a UK 14 and the L fits me perfectly. It keeps me really warm in the north sea up in Scotland without the feeling of being overly buoyant like a traditional wetsuit.

- Lisa M, Edinburgh, UK
