FAQs

What is YULEX(r) natural rubber and why is it used?

YULEX(r) is a natural rubber alternative to neoprene, derived from sustainably managed forests (FSC(r) & PEFC(r) certified). It offers comparable performance in terms of flexibility and insulation while significantly reducing the environmental impact associated with traditional neoprene production.

How does the Quadrate Chest Bib Zip Entry work?

The Quadrate Chest Bib Zip features a streamlined entry system on the chest. It utilizes a flap that tucks in and secures with a zip, designed to minimize water entry (flushing) while providing a comfortable and flexible chest panel.

Is this wetsuit suitable for cold water?

The FLEXOR 32 YULEX BS STEAMER is a 3/2mm thickness suit, typically suited for cool to moderate water temperatures. For very cold water, a thicker wetsuit or additional thermal layers may be necessary.

How do I maintain the blindstitched seams?

The blindstitched seam construction is durable. Regular rinsing with fresh water and proper drying will help maintain the integrity of the seams. Avoid excessive stretching or pulling on the seams.

Can I wash my wetsuit in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand washing with a mild wetsuit shampoo in cool water is the preferred method to preserve the material and construction of the wetsuit.

What is the benefit of the RevoFit 3D Pattern Technology?

RevoFit 3D Pattern Technology creates an anatomically contoured fit, mimicking the body's natural curves. This results in a second-skin feel that enhances comfort, reduces drag, and allows for maximum freedom of movement.

How should I store my wetsuit?

It's best to store your wetsuit hung on a wide, padded hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure it is completely dry before storage and avoid folding it for extended periods, as this can cause creases.

Troubleshooting

Wetsuit feels restrictive

Ensure the suit is the correct size and is fully pulled on. Wrinkles or bunching can restrict movement; smooth out the material against your skin.

Water flushing through the chest zip

Verify that the chest bib flap is correctly positioned and sealed. Ensure the zipper is fully closed and the collar is snug.

Seals (cuffs/ankles) feel tight or uncomfortable

The S-Seal cuffs and ankle seals are designed for a snug fit. If they feel excessively tight, ensure you are using the correct size wetsuit. Wear can sometimes loosen these slightly over time.

Deterioration of natural rubber material

Ensure the wetsuit is properly rinsed and dried after every use, and stored out of direct sunlight. Avoid exposure to petroleum-based products, which can degrade natural rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Donning: Carefully step into the wetsuit, pulling it up over your feet and legs. Use the thumb loops inside the cuffs if available to help pull the suit on without damaging the material. Work the suit up your torso, ensuring a smooth, wrinkle-free fit.
  2. Zip: Fasten the Quadrate Chest Bib Zip, ensuring the flap is properly tucked in for a secure closure.
  3. Collar: Adjust the Pro Glideskin Collar for a snug, comfortable fit that seals against your neck.

Compatibility:

This wetsuit is designed for water sports such as surfing, kayaking, and paddleboarding. It is compatible with standard surfing accessories like leashes and board wax. The multicolor design offers a visually distinct appearance.

Care:

  • Rinse: Always rinse the wetsuit thoroughly with fresh, cool water immediately after each use to remove salt, sand, and chlorine.
  • Washing: Hand wash only with a mild wetsuit shampoo or conditioner. Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners.
  • Drying: Hang the wetsuit on a wide, padded hanger or lay flat to dry, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Avoid wringing out the suit.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, avoiding prolonged folding which can cause creasing. Ensure the suit is completely dry before storage.
