    Can't tell if this has been explicitly stated, but if using a hanger don't hang your suite from the shoulders...hang it from the waist so it's folded in half over the hanger. Put your out-of-season suite(s) in a closet hung in this fashion and you'll be feeling suite when it's time to use them again.

    Thanks MIS... Maybe I'll iron my wet suite before the late fall sessions... I want to fit in. Wasn't there some guy named Andy that would do that?

    even the wide hangers suites are on in the shop aren't made for storage...they're just for temporary store display.

    Unfortunately, neoprene just doesn't have a very long shelf life, no matter how well you baby it...but, on a hangar, the weight of the suite + gravity will kill the shoulders twice as fast.
