The Henderson 3mm Thermoprene Men's Farmer John Wetsuit (SKU: A530MV) is a flexible, highly versatile thermal suit designed for warm-to-temperate water diving, kayaking, paddleboarding, and commercial water sports.
Crafted from Henderson’s Thermoprene neoprene—offering 75% more flexibility than standard neoprene—this sleeveless Farmer John style provides core torso insulation and full-leg coverage while granting maximum shoulder mobility and arm range of motion.
It functions as a standalone long-john or pairs with a step-in jacket (such as a 5mm or 7mm shorty) for stacked dual-layer core protection in extreme thermal environments.
One of the most versatile systems in wetsuit design, the classic john and jacket combo gives divers the option of layering up for cold waters are using a single layer in warmer climates.
The base layer of this combo, the Thermoprene John is prized for its durability.
High-quality seam construction includes a sealing layer of GBS-glue that prevents water seepage and boots warmth.
The abrasion resistant Thermoprene material wears tough, fending off abuse from BC straps and weightbelts, yet dons easily thanks to 75-percent more stretch and a simple hook-and-loop closure at the shoulder.
Freedom Flex kneepads guard the lower leg from bumps and scrapes without inhibiting natural movements.
Divers seeking a great value will appreciate Thermoprene's balance of performance and price. The material combination delivers greater flexibility and improved features not found in standard neoprene wetsuits, yet at a reasonable cost, perfect for the cost-conscious buyer. Thermoprene is crafted from a high-quality neoprene and a low pill fabric. It has 75% more stretch than standard neoprene, so while it is not as flexible as Henderson's Thermoprene Pro or TherMAXX lines of products, it still boasts significant comfort characteristics. The 180% stretch Thermoprene is noticeably easy to don, pulling over the shoulders and around the torso with less huff and puff than standard wetsuits. Also, the fabric's exterior stands up extremely well to the wear of BC straps and weight belts with its pill/abrasion-resistant exterior laminate.
