Wetsuit Exchange

Retire Your Old Suit. Get Credit Toward a Warmer One.

Most wetsuits don’t fail all at once. They stretch out. They flush cold water. They slowly turn good sessions into short ones. When that happens, most suits end up stuffed in a garage or tossed in the trash.

We think there’s a better option.

The Crooked Wetsuit Exchange lets you send in your old wetsuit—from any brand—and receive credit toward a new Crooked suit that will actually keep you warm again.

Warm suits for cold people. Fewer suits in landfills.


Why We Built the Wetsuit Exchange

Cold-water surfers go through wetsuits. Even the good ones eventually wear out. The problem is that most wetsuits aren’t recyclable through normal channels, so they end up sitting around or getting thrown away.

We built the exchange for three simple reasons:

  • To keep old wetsuits out of landfills

  • To make upgrading to a warmer suit easier

  • To reward surfers who take care of their gear—and their community

This isn’t a marketing program. It’s a practical one. You retire a suit that’s done its job, and we help you get back in the water warmer than before.


How the Exchange Works

Step 1: Purchase the Wetsuit Exchange

Add the Wetsuit Exchange to your cart and check out. This covers the processing and recycling of your old suit.

Step 2: Send Us Your Old Wetsuit

Once your order is complete, you’ll receive instructions on where to send your old wetsuit.
Any brand. Any condition. One suit per exchange.

If it kept you warm once, we’ll take it.

Step 3: We Recycle It Responsibly

Your old suit is recycled through proper channels to keep neoprene out of landfills and give the material a second life.

Step 4: Get Your Credit

After your suit is received and processed, we’ll email you a unique credit code to use toward a new Crooked wetsuit.

No waiting around. No hoops.


What You Can Get With Your Exchange Credit

Most surfers use their exchange credit toward the suits they wear the most—especially when the water’s cold and the sessions are long.
