Is my wetsuit broken?

[Benjamincln]

Hi everyone

I'm a beginner, but after my first surf i knew it would be my passion. After some time i bought my own wetsuit: a ripcurl 4.3. After 3 surfsessions i noticed something strange on my left leg. Some parts of the stitch have become hairy. In the attachment I've put a picture. Is it broke? I really take good care of it! Any toughts? Thanks!

If it is new and you are near where you bought it take it back most times it can be repaired or replaced under warranty.
If you bought it on an online site like eBay then you are out of luck.
Cheap suit or name brand? Is another factor. Also have a look for what might be abrading that leg , it looks to me like it it has been rubbed.

It's a new suit, from Ripcurl, so a good brand i guess? Went back to the shop today, they will send it back to the factory, to repair or give me a new one. I'm without wetsuit now, but yeah, now it's sorted out. Thanks anyway!
