Rip Curl Womens Dawn Patrol 1.5mm FL Long Sleeve Wetsuit Jacket

• Thickness: 1.5mm - full coverage in 1.5mm, the midway mark of surfing neoprenes in Australia and the perfect mid-season thickness for most of us. In QLD you can definitely get away with 2mm in winter.
• Style: Jackets - or wetty tops, are the natural born enemy to shoulder seasons and windchill, giving you some heat retention without having to commit to a wetsuit, but bear in mind water can enter much easier than a jacket so if core temps are your concern go a spring or more.
• Rubber: E5 Neoprene - a few years ago E5 was the stretchiest neoprene on the market and thanks to Rip Curl's material trickle down you can now revel in once top-tier flexibility and warmth without the price.
• Seam: Flatlock Seam - I'd bet there'd be enough flatlock stitch laid in the history of wetsuits to cover the distance of here to the moon and back, and for good reason. It's extremely durable, almost 2D and is the most cost effective seam out there. But bear in mind the many pinholes created in the stitching process creates plenty of passages for cold water to enter the suit.
• Zip: Front Zip - the zip is positioned across the upper torso, this means that your back stretch is no longer inhibited and being that the zip is 1/2 or less length than a backzip, the amount of water ingress because of the zip is halved. Warm and stretchy, the two things we all want from our wetty.
• Yulex Plant Based Rubber - Made with sustainability in mind.
• Water based lamination - Recycled external jersey
