Frequently asked questions
What does 3/2 mean?
It's the neoprene thickness in millimetres: 3 mm on the torso, where keeping warm matters most, and 2 mm on the arms and legs, so you can move more freely.
What water temperature is it designed for?
ION rates it for mild water, 14 to 22 °C. How it feels also depends on the wind, how long you spend in the water and how much you feel the cold.
What's the advantage of the back zip?
It's the easiest system for putting the suit on and taking it off, ideal if you want simplicity or are just starting out.
What does Overknee mean?
That the legs come down to the knee: more freedom for your legs and a little less warmth than a full suit.
