Wetsuit Type: Men's hooded fullsuit
Thickness: 5mm through the main body of the suit, with strategic 4mm panels
Neoprene: Performance Stretch. Like all the neoprene in the Xcel range, it's a variety of limestone-based Japanese nanoprene
Lining: Plush Thermo Lite inside lining from chest to knee, front and back, plus hood
Plush Thermo Lite: This lightweight, heat-generating yarn is a lightweight version of Thermo Dry Celliant (found on the Comp X)
Entry: Chest zip
Seam Construction: "S" Seal through upper body, sealed on the outside with polyurethane; lower-body seams are taped on the inside with FusionX tape. This is in addition to standard triple glued & blindstitched construction.
Integrated Hood: Built-in hood lined with Plush Thermo Lite
Also Worth Noting: Smoothskin on chest and back for additional defences against wind and water, plus glideskin collar to reduce flushing and chafing round the neck.
Eco Credentials: Water-based glues (no nasty VOCs); dope-dyed yarns (massive savings on water and energy); scrap rubber tyres pyrolyzed into carbon black (one of the key ingredients in neoprene); limestone-derived neoprene (marginally better than petrochemcial alternatives); plastic bottles recycled into polyester yarns (used the stretch jersey fabric that lines the neoprene).
Rough Temperature Guide: 8-13 °C
