Why Defiance?
Defiance isn’t our attitude — it’s our method.
At Volte, we challenge the assumptions of what a surf brand should be. We’re not built for shareholders. We’re independently owned, family-run, and committed to one thing: building high-performance wetsuits with purpose.
While the industry jumps from trend to trend, we focus on purposeful evolution — relentlessly refining what matters, and leaving the rest behind.
Our suits don’t exist to create hype. They exist to earn trust — one cold, heavy session at a time.
This is the Craft of Defiance.
Tested. Refined. Trusted.

Let customers speak for us
Fits like a glove. Nice and flexible. Can’t even feel the cold.
Perfect fit, comfortable and flexible!
The cold don’t stand a chance against the Premium 3x2 steamer - the premier suit in Volte’s Gen5 range.
The fit on this wetty is next-level. The neck, wrists and ankles feel near-watertight while still allowing maximum movement and no-restriction. Taped seals on the interior massively help take that edge off that first splash on chilly mornings.
The wool-like quick dry lining keeps your crucial chest and back areas cosy during long sessions. Durable, reinforced knee pads, and left-to-right chest zip so there won’t be any fumbling around with numb hands trying to connect the zip.
Flawless fit, top-notch materials and masterful construction - What more could you ask for in a wetty?
Volte have all bases covered with the ‘Vital 3x2 Steamer’. Exceptional craftsmanship has gone into these suits for day-in, day-out use. Quality seams and an effortless back-zip entry which a lot of crew seem to be opting for again.
At $229 retail price, it has to be one of the best affordable 3x2’s on the market.
A must-have in you wetty quiver. Ideal for a trip away to tropical waters, a quick bash after work or bang it on for your next 20 minute heat.
Currently the water temp in Margaret River is a balmy 23 degrees and we’ve even had post-summer heat of up to 35 degree air temp. It really is peak springy season.
The ‘Vital 2x2 Springy’ from Volte is minimal while classic. Simple back-zip entry with Volte’s engineered body fit. It’s going to flex, stretch and fold with your body's every movement while providing ultimate comfort.
Haven’t used suit yet. Love my 3/2 and 4/3.
I have a Gen4 Volte Premium steamer that is still going strong after three years of regular use but, I wanted to try the new Gen5 premium jacket to see the difference.
The new jacket is so much more flexible and stretchy that the Gen4, it's amazing. I'll definitely be getting a Gen5 steamer too!
The thickest and softest Terry material I've seen on one of these. Most others are polyester or super thin. I think I'll probably have this for years and I use them a LOT! Definitely recommended!
Springsuit is comfortable, really flexible, and good quality. Great to see a company offering larger sized wetsuits for curvier women. Unfortunately I ordered the wrong size (totally my fault) and the customer service was amazing!
This is the best VOLTE suit to date. The Gen 5 is as smooth as silk to wear on the inside and super flexible in all the joint and stress areas. The Chest Zip is so easy and slides without a problem. I have had many Volte suits and have never been disappointed. I don't even entertain using another brand. No need.
Awesome product to change, either at the beach or in Carparks at the local. Long, thick and I have no use for a towel anymore. Great product.
Perfect fit. Comfortable to the skin and no seam rub when surfing or exercising. Highlight stiching with VOLTE logoing is subtle but classic. Go to boardy.
