Roxy Surf

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I choose the right Roxy wetsuit for cold-water surfing?

  Choose a full-length Roxy wetsuit made from thicker neoprene with sealed seams and glued/taped construction for better warmth and reduced flushing. Roxy neoprene is designed to boost core temperature and dexterity, so check each product page for specific construction details and intended temperature ranges before you buy.
• How do Roxy boardshorts and bikini bottoms typically fit, and what style should I pick for active surfing?

  Roxy boardshorts tend to offer a roomier, surf-ready fit with stretch and an adjustable waist, while bikini bottoms come in styles like moderate, hipster, high-leg, and tie-side so you can prioritize coverage or mobility. Use the brand size chart for a snug, body-contouring fit—choose fuller coverage or a higher-waist cut for more secure movement in waves.
• What’s the difference between Roxy’s athletic triangle and tiki triangle bikini tops?

  The athletic triangle is cut and constructed to provide more support and coverage for active use, often with wider straps and a sportier shape, whereas the tiki triangle is a classic, more minimal triangle design focused on style and a lighter fit. Pick the athletic triangle for paddling and higher-impact surf sessions and the tiki triangle for sunbathing or lower-intensity water activities.
• Are Roxy surf pieces made with recycled materials and eco-friendly tech?

  Many Roxy swim and surf items use recycled stretch fabrics and select outerwear features recycled WarmFlight® Eco insulation; the brand emphasizes recycled content across swimwear, boardshorts, and some neoprene accessories. Look at individual product descriptions for exact recycled-material percentages and sustainability callouts.
• When should I wear a Roxy rashguard versus a Roxy wetsuit for surfing?

  Wear a rashguard for sun protection, chafe prevention, and light warmth in warm-water sessions; rashguards maximize mobility and pair well with boardshorts or bikini bottoms. Choose a Roxy wetsuit (full suit or spring suit) when water temperatures require insulation—neoprene provides thermal protection and better durability for longer, colder surf sessions.
