Chest Zip - With a horizontal zipper on the chest, wetsuits with a Double Chest-zip open from the top. This construction allows for easier entry. Chest-zip suits have more stretch in the back panel which gives you a lot more freedom of movement.
Aquabarrier - This is a silicone printing on the collarbone region of your wetsuit. This forms a barrier between the overlapping chest-zip panels preventing water from entering.
Aquaflush 2.0 - This new and improved neoprene structure will only allow water to go out of your wetsuit and doesn't seep in from the outside through the same holes anymore. So no more cold feet, except for your wedding day maybe.
Key pocket 2.0 - A key loop with mini buckle - An external neoprene key pocket conveniently positioned on the lower leg of the suit. The standard key loop is now equipped with a mini-buckle to release your key with ease while making sure your key is safe inside.
Back knee emboss - Bending your knee has never been this easy. The emboss in your knee cavity improves your freedom of movement and makes moving around in your wetsuit feel effortless.
Emboss patterned superstretch - Bending your knee has never been this easy. The emboss in your knee cavity improves your freedom of movement and makes moving around in your wetsuit feel effortless.
MATERIALS:
- Yamamoto 39
- Emboss patterned superstretch
- Flaremesh+ in chest / back / lower body & hood
- Fox Fleece in all other panels
Yamamoto 39 is an eco-friendly limestone neoprene that is considered one of the best neoprenes in the market. The high stretch ratio and top-notch insulation will let you perform better and be more comfortable than ever.
Flaremesh+ with Mystic's new Flaremesh+, once again they've united that holy trinity by making it a more geometrical pattern. Flaremesh+ still has a warm high pile, but we gave it a little trim to improve comfort even more. Flaremesh+ channels water through the fabric to decrease drying time dramatically.
Fox Fleece If it's soft, smooth and incredibly warm it's probably Mystic’s renewed Foxfleece thermal inner lining. Big loops in the fabric create a high pile lining that holds air for extra insulation. The fleece also holds less water enhancing the fast-drying abilities of the fabric.
Waterproof stretch taping critical areas - A highly durable taping is used in the crucial areas of the suit to avoid leaking and keep it flexible and warm.
Glued blind stitching is a method whereby the panels are first glued together and then only stitched halfway through the fabric instead of fully perforating it, which makes the seams waterproof.
Wind mesh has closed cell neoprene with one side of fabric lamination. The outside of the mesh neoprene offers a better protection against wind chill.
