Materials and technology

Our Explorer line wetsuits were designed to offer a perfect and versatile solution. Prioritizing comfort and durability, the Explorer line was developed using a unique combination of eco-friendly materials. Our new Mineralprene is the neoprene that combines recycled oyster shells with limestone. Our warming technology is provided by FastDry, used to line the torso area, combined with an exclusive terry fabric. The seams are glued and stitched to reinforce the inside without compromising flexibility, thanks to our ultra-flexible seam tapes. We have improved the suit's durability by introducing memory foam recovery technology, which maintains its integrity.

When choosing your wetsuit size, make sure you choose the correct fit. The wetsuit should feel really snug to begin with. It will adapt perfectly to your body within 2-3 surf sessions.

Care

Always rinse it in cold water without soap (don't put it in the washing machine or the dryer).

Take the wetsuit off calmly, always using a Deeply change mat or a bucket. Be careful with your nails, as they can tear the neoprene. Don't overstretch the neoprene, as this can break the stitching and seams. In summer or hot weather, take the wetsuit out of the car as soon as you arrive. Store it hanging, without folding it. Don't remove surf wax, as trying to do so damages the neoprene.

Materials and Sustainability

  • Mineralprene

    Mineralprene

    Mineralprene is made by mixing limestone with waste oyster shells. The oyster shells are recycled and converted into oxide powder. This allows us to reduce the amount of limestone used in the composition of our wetsuits. This way, we produce a more natural and comfortable rubber foam.
  • Limestone

    Limestone

    This is a limestone mineral rock. Our wetsuits use earth-mined limestone to replace petrochemicals. It’s a natural mineral that helps us reduce the environmental impact of our wetsuits. This is not only better for the environment, but it’s also better for you. Limestone offers increased flexibility, is lighter, and provides increased sun protection.

Thermal protection for everyday surfing

The men's Explorer 4/3 Chest Zip wetsuit is the choice for surfers who regularly paddle out in cold water and want a warm, durable wetsuit. THERMO SHIELD panels on the chest and back, Deeply Fastdry lining on the torso and sealed GBS seams ensure warmth and durability.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know what size to choose?
Please consult the size guide available on the product page and compare your measurements with the corresponding chart.

A wetsuit should fit snugly against the body, without large folds or air pockets, but it should allow you to breathe and move normally. It may feel tighter at first and will adapt slightly after the first few sessions.

If you are between two sizes or need help, please contact our Customer Service team, providing your height, weight, and main measurements.
Is the product suitable for cold water?
It depends on the thickness and the model. As a general reference, 3/2 mm suits are suitable for temperate water, while 4/3 mm or 5/4 mm models offer greater insulation for colder water.

How warm you feel also depends on the water temperature, wind, session length and your sensitivity to cold. Always check the features and temperature recommendation shown on the product page.
Does the suit restrict movement?
It should not restrict your movements if you have chosen the correct size. The suit should be snug to reduce water entry, but allow natural mobility of the shoulders, arms and legs.

If large creases appear, too much water enters, or you feel excessive pressure that makes breathing or movement difficult, double-check the size and fit of the model.
How should I care for the product after use?
Always rinse it thoroughly with cold water after each use to remove salt, sand and other residues. Do not use a washing machine, tumble dryer, bleach or aggressive products.

Dry it in the shade, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. To prevent deformation, hang it on a suitable hanger or fold it at the waist while it dries. Store it completely dry, without compressing it and in a cool place.

When putting it on or taking it off, avoid pulling forcefully and be careful with fingernails and sharp surfaces, as these can damage the neoprene.
Are the seams reinforced?
Seam construction depends on the model. On each product page, you will find the type of seam and the technologies used.

Models designed for more demanding conditions may feature glued, stitched or sealed seams to improve strength and flexibility and reduce water entry. Please check the product specifications to confirm the exact construction of the model you have chosen.
