Women's Xenos 5mm
€385,00 EUR
The design criteria of this suit were to make it as easy as possible to get on and off thanks to cut away ankles (inspired by the fast transition features of triathlon suits) and smooth linings in the arms and legs. Comfortable stretch neoprene throughout ensures that the suit fits well, and hugs the body, minimising water flushing through the suit, and double glue blind-stitched seams combine with internal ankle seals and Hydrolock wrist seals to minimise water ingress.

This suit is perfect for days in and out of the water especially on liveaboards.

The use of recycled materials, such as old fishing nets, in collaboration with Ghostnets UK, shows great consistency with the above standards. The same goes for the use of Econyl fabrics, an Italian company specializing in recycled fabrics made from recycled plastic.
Since neoprene has an amazing performance in water sports, the use of fuel oil and therefore supporting oil drilling is not what we want as sea and nature lovers. The fourth element we use for our wetsuits is Limestone and Yulex Pure Neoprene.
Development never stops, so even the new REC FINS, which are made of 97% recycled material, can be recycled again. So here you see the whole life cycle of a product, and the end of life is the beginning of a new life.

Features
Recycled Rubber
One of the key ingredients of neoprene, Eco Carbon Black, is recycled by our wetsuit factory from post-consumer scrap tyres. This significantly reduces energy consumption and cuts CO2 emissions by 200g per wetsuit.
Limestone Neoprene
During the neoprene production process, limestone is used to replace petrochemicals to form rubber chips. You achieve the same performance as traditional neoprene, but with way less environmental impact.
Resources
After the neoprene creation process, the redundant trimmed materials will be recycled and reused in the mixing process to produce more neoprene sheets. Overall huge amounts of raw materials are saved, energy consumption is reduced and waste water and air emissions are minimised during production.
