Seasuit Project
The modest wetsuit inspired by Iran’s women surfers
Surfers in the UK and Ireland are fairly used to being fully clad in neoprene, especially when surfing through the winter. But back in 2010, on a trip to Southern Iran, Finisterre ambassador Easkey Britton found herself requiring similar head-to-toe coverage for different reasons.
A life-long surfer and marine social scientist at the national university of Ireland Galway, Easkey’s work explores the relationship between people and nature, particularly in aquatic environments. It was from this passion that the Finisterre Seasuit project was born.
