Myself and my partner visited NCW after seeing their store online. We had seen a lot of their products on the website, so decided to pay them a visit on our next trip to Cornwall on holiday.

Communication right from the off was great, I spoke to Mark via email and he couldn’t have been more helpful. I had asked if there was ample space for an estate car with a trailer, which there is plenty.

Mark opened the shop early for us as we had arrived ahead of the planned time due to great traffic on the motorway, which was really kind of him as I wouldn’t have minded admiring the lovely view for however long it took.

We were sized up with wetsuits, shown different options and styles, Mark was bang on with his sizing right as we walked through the door and had myself and my partner fitted within a short time.

I am really happy with the quality of the suits that we purchased, and they should last us many years! No doubt when we need something else for our paddling adventures, NCW will be the first place that we go.

Thankyou so much Mark and team for being so accommodating and friendly, and most of all human. We are very impressed with your products and service, and can’t wait to visit again for some more of your gear!

Kind regards,
Dan and Grace.

I bought a waist leash and SUP carry strap (which has a very handy little carrying bag). I could have bought a cheaper one from that place where we all buy too much stuff, but this was made locally and from recycled materials. It feels very well made, and I will feel much safer when I eventually figure out how to stand up on a Paddleboard! Delivery was supposed to be second class, but arrived within two days of my order, which is just as good as that other place would have been!

I love my swimming cap, it keeps my head warm when I swim in the sea while keeping the water out of my ears and making me visible. I would recommend.

Back for yet another wetsuit as my children continue to grow. Always fantastic service from these guys, fair pricing and wetsuits that keep the children warm so they can spend loads of time in the water without getting cold.

We bought our first ever wetsuits at NCW
today, it SO was nice not to feel like a total idiot buying something like this without much knowledge! The guy was extremely approachable, and knew pretty much immediately what we’d need. He explained how to care for and store our wetsuits, and some of the important features. I don’t feel like he tried to sell us something more expensive than we needed, but also I am confident that what we bought will be just right and not cheap! Although I’m not particularly knowledgeable on wetsuits, I think the quality and workmanship on these suits is very good, and I am really pleased with our purchases. It’s lovely to support a local business, and I feel confident that they will be helpful if we have any questions or concerns, or need any repairs in future. Thanks again!

Great communication, very fast delivery and I’m really pleased with the product – thank you!

Our hooded long sleeve rash vests are warm, snug fitting, very comfortable to wear, quick drying and super stretchy for a good snug fit. Designed to keep you really warm wearing them under any wetsuit in the winter. Secondly they are really handy if you want to extend the season of your summer suit. Having a built in peaked hood is a great function. Once you’ve paddled out if you find yourself hot and bothered you only need a quick flick to throw the hood back and cool down. Consequently need not worry about loosing the hood to the sea like you would with a separate hood.

We get great feedback on our hooded long sleeve rash vest / guards. Here is a note from Gary using his at Weston Supermare : ” used my XXL hooded long sleeve rash vest Friday and it worked a treat! Very warm unlike many of my friends 🙂 ”

If you’d like additional size advice on this product please drop us a line here. Let us know what sport your using it for as folks like different fits for different uses, along with your chest size, waist measurement and your weight too.

Carolyn : “I purchased the 1.5mm Thermal Hooded Long Sleeve Rash Vest and wore it today under my wetsuit in the 6° North Sea and I was so warm at one point I actually felt like I was sweating!! Brilliant top and great value.”

Very warm and flexible. Worn under a swim wetsuit. For cold water winter open water swimming. Attached hood stopped the shock of cold water running down my back. I am 5ft6”slim build. The size ‘small’ fits well.

Brilliant for river swimming. I’ve worn it with a short John sleeveless wetsuit and it’s very warm with full arm flexibility which has always bothered me with full wetsuits

Great piece of kit: at 1.5mm, it fits snuggly under my 5:4:3 wetsuit. I ventured out in it today, in 4° air temperature / 10° sea temperature; I fell in the sea several times when paddle boarding / trying (failing) to wingsurf: brilliant item that kept me very warm despite being in the sea for 4 hours. I see this as a must have piece of clothing during the winter. I also purchased the 3mm beanie which I used most of the time without the hood, which fitted well without being too tight and didn’t fall off when falling in + used it under the hood at times: very warm indeed.
