Diver's Ventilation Tip: One of the greatest advantages of a front-zip shorty is easy temperature regulation on the boat deck. If you get uncomfortably warm during a sunny surface interval between dives, you can simply slide the front zipper down halfway to vent out the suit and cool off instantly without having to take the entire shorty off.
3/2mm Intelligent Insulation: Engineered with 3mm premium limestone-based neoprene across the chest and torso to lock in core body heat, while utilizing 2mm neoprene around the sleeves and shoulders. This dual-thickness design ensures maximum flexibility for swimming and paddling without compromising thermal protection.
Ergonomic Front Zipper Entry: Outfitted with a heavy-duty, corrosion-proof marine-grade zipper located right down the center of the chest. The front-zip configuration makes this shorty incredibly easy to don and doff completely independently, eliminating the need to reach behind your back for a leash.
Maximum Mobility Shorty Cut: Features short sleeves and a cut that rests right above the knee. This layout frees up your joints, allowing for natural, unhindered shoulder rotation and leg movement while surfing, paddleboarding, kayaking, or climbing boat ladders.
Flatlock Anti-Chafe Seams: Assembled with flatlock stitching that lays completely flush against your skin. This breathable seam construction prevents the friction, rubbing, and painful chafing common during high-repetition surface water sports.
Anatomical Men's Silhouette: Tailored with pre-shaped, multi-panel construction that conforms naturally to the masculine physique. This ensures a snug, gap-free fit that prevents water from pocketing and cooling down your core temperature.
Glideskin Neck & Arm Seals: Finished with smooth glideskin edges along the collar and sleeves. This creates a comfortable, high-friction seal against your skin to drastically reduce water flushing when crashing through waves or diving.
