Our Story

As a surfer on Lake Superior, and in cold and wet climates around the world, there’s a certain barrier to entry that can make it difficult to get started, and more addicting when it’s something you love. Part of what makes Lake Surfing unique are the frigid temperatures that bring in the waves, and keep people coming back for more.

After years of surfing, and dealing with changing and enduring freezing winds, rain, and snow, we knew we needed something to stay dry and warm, and something that would last.

Swamp Suits™ was created out of the need for something warm, and something that would get us through the cold mornings and late nights. Using Gore-Tex™ waterproof Cordura, along with an insulating base layer we have created a solution that keeps you dry and warm in all conditions.

We make all of our products by hand, in Duluth, Minnesota, USA.

Beating the cold isn’t an option, but having the right gear will get you pretty close.
