ARC 5/4mm ADULT Outdoor Centre/Coasteering Unisex Back Zip Wetsuit
Pickup currently not available
The Circle One ARC Centre Wetsuit is a high-performance, four-season wetsuit built for the real-world demands of surf schools, outdoor centres, and professional adventure operators. Engineered to handle continuous use in tough environments, it’s ideal for high-wear activities including coasteering, canyoning, white water rafting, surfing, kayaking, and paddlesports.
Trusted by leading outdoor centres and the Royal Marines, the ARC is designed with durability and functionality at its core. Developed through years of collaboration with instructors and activity providers, it uses premium-grade materials and proven construction to deliver long-lasting performance season after season.
Why the ARC Works for Centres
The ARC is built to reduce common failure points in hard-working centre wetsuits. It features double Glued & Blind-Stitched (GBS) seams, reinforced high-wear zones, and a diagonal back zip designed to reduce stress at the base of the zip while improving upper-body flexibility.
Warmth + Mobility (5/4/3mm)
As a true all-season wetsuit, the ARC delivers dependable thermal protection with strategically placed neoprene thickness: 5mm torso for core warmth, 4mm legs for heat retention, and 3mm arms/shoulders to maximise paddling and mobility. Flexible stretch panels are placed at key movement zones (underarms, thighs, lower legs, and back) to keep motion unrestricted during high-intensity use.
The tailored chest and leg paneling is designed for a unisex fit, offering ergonomic comfort for both male and female users—ideal for centre stock where multiple people may use the same size range.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.
A Curated Marketplace for Independent Ethical Brands
Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.
Sostter is more than a marketplace. We're here to inspire a more thoughtful way to shop — one that celebrates the makers, the dreamers, and the independent brands doing things properly. Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
