Body Glove: Redondo Beach-based Body Glove claims that its founders used insulation from the back of a refrigerator to invent "the first practical wetsuit." I have no idea whether that's true. But I do know that the Body Glove logo makes me stop, smile, and reminisce. Their surfing (or, in my case, boogie boarding) wetsuits brought much affordable joy to my Central Coast surf-town childhood, and that Body Glove's diving wetsuits were there for me when I learned to scuba.
Volcom: Orange County-based Volcom is a
one-stop shop for skater/surfer/snowboarder fashion, from jeans to board shorts
to two-piece suits. Oddly, they do not
make full-body wetsuits, just wetsuit tops and rash guards.
