1. What is Help You Surf?
Help You Surf is a brand built for surfers, by surfers. We focus on creating high-quality, creative, and functional surf products that reflect the true spirit of wave riding. Our range includes wetsuits, apparel, accessories, and soft goods designed for performance, comfort, and style. Every product carries the Help You Surf identity – independent, ocean-driven, and built to last.
2. Where are Help You Surf products made?
We work with a network of trusted manufacturing partners who share our commitment to quality and ethical production. While some materials and components come from different regions around the world, all final products are carefully assembled and inspected under strict guidelines to ensure they meet our standards. We are always exploring ways to make our supply chain more transparent and sustainable.
3. How do I find the right size for Help You Surf wetsuits or apparel?
Sizing can vary depending on the product type. For wetsuits, we provide a detailed size chart on each product page. We recommend taking your chest, waist, hip, height, and weight measurements before comparing them to our chart. For apparel such as t-shirts, hoodies, and jackets, we also offer specific measurements for length, width, and sleeve length. If you are between sizes, we generally suggest sizing up for a more comfortable fit, especially in wetsuits.
4. What materials does Help You Surf use?
We prioritize performance and durability. Our wetsuits use high-grade neoprene blends, often including limestone-based materials for better flexibility and lower environmental impact. Our apparel ranges from 100% cotton to recycled polyester blends, depending on the collection. We are actively working to increase the use of eco-friendly materials across all Help You Surf products without compromising on quality.
5. How should I care for my Help You Surf wetsuit?
Proper care extends the life of your wetsuit. After each use, rinse it thoroughly with cold fresh water – inside and out. Hang it to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Never use a washing machine, dryer, or harsh detergents. For storage, hang it on a wide wetsuit hanger or fold it loosely to avoid creases. Avoid leaving it in a hot car or rolled up wet for long periods.
6. Can I change or cancel my order after placing it?
We process orders quickly to get your gear to you as soon as possible. If you need to change or cancel an order, please contact us through the support options on helpyousurf.com immediately after placing your order. We cannot guarantee changes or cancellations once an order has entered the preparation stage, but we will do our best to assist you.
7. What if my Help You Surf product has a manufacturing defect?
All Help You Surf products are covered by a warranty against manufacturing defects.

We will assess the case and provide a solution in line with our warranty policy. Normal wear and tear, damage from misuse, or improper care are not covered.
