Arghhh... I'm a little pissed right now because SOMEBODY wadded up my nearly new wetsuit and stuck it in a bag in the closet. Now it looks like a work shirt that's been in the trunk for a week. Is there any way to get all these wrinkles out of it? Yes, I like my suits to look good.
 
Dive in it a couple of times and you'll be all set.

(seriously)
 
It probably isn't that big of a deal. The wrinkles should come out after you put it on. After a dive or two they will probably be gone forever. If you just can't stand looking at it wrinkled, you could try soaking it in water in the tub or a big plastic trash can and hanging it to dry.
 
Thats not a bad idea when you have a wife that steals the covers on a cold night.

Buy "Wet-Suit Wrinkle Free". It's only 94.95 a bottle and lasts for at least 2 washes.
.. Just kidding.. Although in this Scuba accessory market I wouldn't be surprised.
I had that happen to me and I just wore it and my belly and butt stretched out the wrinkles eventually. :D
Getting it wet helps.
 
I'm also in the "don't let it sit in the bag unused, and it'll never get wrinkled" camp, but I have to admit I'd like to see what a dry-cleaner would say if you took it in. :)
 
Ok so it's no big deal... sorry it probably sounded like a stupid question, but it's the first wetsuit i've owned and it's brand new so you can imagine how protective I am of it.
