Learn About What Makes AVALY so Special
Finally! The Kids Wetsuit You’ve Been Waiting For.
Let’s be honest. Getting a wriggly toddler into a wetsuit can feel like a cardio workout you didn't sign up for. And then there's the eco-guilt of buying yet another thing made from... stuff.
Well, consider that problem solved. Born on Sydney's sunny Northern Beaches, Avaly is our answer to creating the perfect wetsuits for our little ones: ones that are ridiculously cute, cosy-warm, faff-free to put on, and are genuinely better for the beautiful planet we want them to grow up on.
So, Why Are Our Wetsuits So Good?
You're a busy parent, I get it. Here's the good stuff.
- No More Wrestling Matches. We designed these colourful, classic wetsuits to be ridiculously easy to get on and off your little one. Less pre-beach faff means more fun in the sun. Simple.
- Off-the-Charts Cuteness. Forget boring black. We’re all about bringing a bit of style and a lot of cuteness to the shoreline. Prepare for compliments.
- Next-Level Comfy & Warm. Made from incredible plant-based rubber, they keep your tiny human perfectly snug and warm for longer beach days and splash park adventures.

Our Story (And Why We’re Not Like Other Wetsuits)
Meet The Mum Behind The Wetsuits
Ever had one of those "stuff it, I'll just make it myself" moments? That’s exactly how Avaly started.
Our founder, Alyssa Curtis, is an Aussie mum of two who went on a mission to find a stylish, planet-friendly wetsuit for her little ones. She searched and scrolled, but came up... empty. Nothing ticked all the boxes. It was either cute but made of icky stuff, or eco-friendly but a bit… beige.
So, she channelled her love for the ocean (and for colourful, timeless style!) and decided to create the dream wetsuit herself. And just like that, Avaly was born on Sydney's Northern Beaches.
When she’s not wrangling wetsuits, you’ll find Alyssa: Down at Manly beach with her husband and kids, snorting with laughter with friends, or sipping on the good kind of hot chocolate. Always.

Lets Talk Values
Our Vibe (And Why We Do What We Do)
Our big, sparkly goal is simple: To make the world’s cutest, most sustainable kids' wetsuits.
But behind the scenes, it’s all about transparency and doing things the right way. These are our non-negotiables:
- Planet Before Profit. Full Stop. We will only ever create products that are sustainable, biodegradable, or recyclable. It’s the whole reason we’re here.
- Good Vibes Only. From the way we design to the chats we have with you, we’re all about bringing positive, enthusiastic energy to everything we do.
- Come As You Are. We’re committed to creating an environment where everyone—our team, our partners, and our customers—feels welcome and can be the best version of themselves.
The Nitty Gritty: About Our Wetsuits
Okay, let's talk about what makes our eco-friendly wetsuits so special. Most wetsuits you see are made from neoprene, which is basically a rubbery plastic derived from non-renewable petroleum. Ick.
We said a big ‘no thanks’ to that and chose something way, way better: YULEX®, a plant-based natural rubber.
So, what is YULEX®?
Think of it as Mother Nature’s high-performance fabric. It’s an amazing, eco-friendly material tapped from FSC®/PEFC® certified Hevea trees. It’s completely deforestation-free and performs just as well (actually, we think better) than traditional neoprene.
Why does this matter?
By choosing a renewable, plant-based alternative, we can reduce the CO₂ emissions from a single wetsuit by up to 80%. It’s a small change that makes a huge difference. We are proudly, and will always be, a neoprene-free zone.

Understand Our Ethical Practices
How We Make Things (The Right Way)
Being ethical isn't just a buzzword for us; it’s baked into every decision we make. It’s about being transparent and making products you can feel genuinely good about.
- Made in Small, Happy Batches.
We produce our wetsuits in small batches. Why? It means we avoid overproduction and only make what we truly need. It’s our simple way of fighting landfill and staying mindful. - Happy Makers, Happy Wetsuits.
Our wetsuits are designed with love right here in Australia and brought to life by a specialised manufacturing partner in China. We took our time to find a team that treats their staff like absolute gold, ensuring they are paid above-award wages, have health insurance, and work in a safe, supportive environment. - Always Learning, Always Improving.
Being truly sustainable is a journey, not a destination. We are constantly looking for ways to improve our practices and place the planet at the heart of everything we do.
