*Every 15 days we will send a post-purchase survey to choose your preferred color, size and shipping info.
Thanks to our world-class wetsuit expertise, we have crafted a product of the finest quality with an amazing design, and have produced it with the best low-polluting materials. We are delighted to say that TURTL PROJECT produces the most versatile wetsuit you will ever find at an accessible price.
Galapagos Wetsuit has been designed and tested for, but is not exclusive to, high-performance Surfing, Kitesurfing, Sailing, Windsurfing, Paddle Surfing, and Wakeboarding.
Wetsuit ranges reinvented. Why having a shorty wetsuit, a long-arm springsuit, a long john, a 5/4/3mm and a 3/2mm wetsuit if you can have a fullsuit for all year long.
Unlike traditional wetsuits, our eco-friendly alternative avoids harmful petroleum-made neoprene as well as it reduces significantly the carbon footprint in the production process.
Amid a monopolized wetsuit market by large brand names, high margins at quality’s cost, and no environmental commitment, Turtl Project’s effort is to deliver high-quality products with the lowest possible CO2 emissions at reasonable prices.
Within a 90% monopolized wetsuit industry, with full control over pricing, high margins at quality’s cost, and taking advantage of sustainability to increase prices, Turtl Project wants to offer better-quality and sustainable-only products at a honest accessible price.
We have successfully crafted a watersports’ wide-ranging wetsuit and appropriately tested it to fulfill all needs of current water men & women:
Thanks to our successful configuration, based on the right blend of fabrics and the perfect equilibrium of thicknesses, we have been able to create the most versatile Wetsuit. This way you can avoid having a wetsuit for each season without compromising any feature.
There is not a 4/3mm Wetsuit standard in the market, with diverse and inefficient distributions of thicknesses which limits its target weather conditions ranges.
Our formula is simple: full 4mm (+ thermal lining) torso and 3mm limbs of the best and stretchier limestone neoprene which allows us to encompass the widest range of conditions.
To efficiently reduce our production carbon footprint, we decided to launch a crowdfunding campaign as this is a more sustainable approach, optimally producing according to actual demand, and hence, avoiding overproduction.
We selected suppliers that have been Bluesign certified and/or comply with the Standard 100 OEKO-TEX label, which makes our world-class wetsuits respectful for the environment. They have successfully undergone harmful chemicals laboratory tests, besides they comply with ethical and child-labor-free production procedures, not to mention the high quality of the fabrics which makes it a wetsuit of superior durability.
Our premium wetsuits are exclusively produced in a greater sustainable alternative neoprene which not only avoids harmful refined petroleum in the production process but also gives revolutionary flexibility, lighter overall weight, and incomparable heat insulation.
Turtl Project cares about our endangered marine ecosystems, and as you may guess, we care about Sea Turtles. In order to better validate our commitment with our Oceans, we will be giving a % of all pledges to the conservation of Sea Turtles through CRAM: a Foundation for Conservation and Restoration of Marine Species.
We have also created an essential and innovative travel bag to easily bring your fresh Galapagos Wetsuit back home after your session without pouring a single drop of salty water in your backpack.

On average, 26% of a garment’s environmental impact happens after-purchase, and has a lot to do with how we take care of our clothes as well as the resources used for washing them.
