The Best Selling Surf Wetsuits of 2024

The surf world had an unforgettable year in 2024, with historic moments shaping the sport. Surfing made its second Olympic appearance at the Paris Summer Games, with the iconic Teahupo’o setting the stage for thrilling battles. On the WSL front, Hawaiian legend John John Florence and rising star Caitlin Simmers dominated the WSL Finals, cementing their places at the top of the surfing world. As surfers around the globe chased new adventures, wetsuit sales soared, fueled by the year’s exciting events. With that, let’s dive into Cleanline Surf’s best-selling wetsuits of 2024.
It’s no surprise that O’Neill is still leading the pack, year after year, with its innovative TechnoButter neoprene, offering comfort and flexibility like no other. But 2024 was also a year of upgrades and innovation. Billabong has pushed the envelope with its eco-conscious design, continuing its commitment to sustainability with the all-new Natural Upcycler model line, which boasts improved performance while maintaining a strong environmental focus with the new neoprene-free rubber.
On the more affordable side, Rip Curl and Vissla are still going strong with wetsuits that balance cost and quality, making them ideal choices for surfers looking for great value without compromising performance.
As coldwater experts here in Oregon, we’re not surprised at how well the thicker rubbers are selling these days. As we ease into 2025, whether you’re braving the coldest waters or heading to warmer shores, now is the perfect time to update your wetsuit game. Ready to up your session count this year?

Beyond O’Neill’s Hyperfreak dominance, a few other standout suits held their ground in 2024. The Rip Curl Dawn Patrol and Billabong Women’s Synergy remain fan favorites, offering an impressive balance of affordability and premium features that outshine many competitors. It’s also great to see Billabong making waves with its commitment to sustainability—utilizing recycled materials, neoprene-free rubber, and eco-friendly manufacturing.
Late in 2024, we introduced Xcel to our lineup, and it didn’t take long for their Infiniti and Drylock wetsuits to become top sellers. These premium cold-water suits are already proving to be serious contenders. Another brand making moves is Manera, whose uniquely designed 3D wetsuits deliver outstanding performance and durability.
Meanwhile, staple names like Patagonia, Quiksilver, Roxy, Vissla, and Buell continued to hold strong, securing spots across multiple Men’s, Women’s, and Youth categories. It’s been an exciting year, and we can’t wait to see how these brands continue to evolve in 2025!
