Seams
In order to fit well a wetsuit is made from a number of panels. A better fit is obtained by the use of more panels but this also increases the number of seams which reduces the flexibility. Seams should be placed away from areas where they may cause rubbing,customize bobblehead, such as at the neck or behind the knees and also away from areas that will reduce the ability to move,personalized bobbleheads, such as across the shoulders or under the arms.

Stitching
Two types of stitching are used in wetsuits,custom bobbleheads, flatlocking or blindstitching. In more expensive wetsuits blindstitching is usually used. The seam is first glued then stitched with the needle not passing completely through the material. With no needle hole all the way through the material the seam is watertight. This process is more expensive as it is labour intensive. In flatlocking a flerxible and strong seam is produced but the needle passes right through the material so it is not watertight. It is usually used in summer wetsuits and is not suitable for winter wetsuits.

Liquid Sealed Seams
A rubber compound can be used to seal the seam and make it watertight,customized bobbleheads. This is very effective but the use of the rubber compound reduces the flexibilty so is not suitable for areas where flexibility is important,custom bobblehead.

Neoprene Coating
There are two types of neoprene coating currently in use WRC (water repellant coating) and Pu printing. A chemical that repels water is used in WPC,,, usually on the top half of the wetsuit. Less water is absorbed by the fabric and the wetsuit is therefore lighter and warmer. PU printing is used to make the fabric more resistant to damage by abrasion as it increases the durability of the neoprene material.

Batwings
Used in most expensive wetsuits,personalized bobble heads, batwings are thin pieces of neoprene that are sewn inside the zipper to prevent the entry of cold water, thus making the wetsuit warmer and more comfortable.
