Patagonia R2 Yulex Front Zip Wetsuit
Fair Trade™-certified wetsuit for water temperatures from 12° to 17° C
Patagonia's wetsuits now offer a more comfortable entry and even more stretch. Made from 85 % Yulex natural rubber and 15 % synthetic rubber in the polymer portion, they are the only Fair Trade™-certified wetsuits in the world. The natural rubber has an FSC® certificate from the Rainforest Alliance.
The Yulex offers you a warm thermal lining. The torso and thighs have a spun-dyed microgrid thermal lining made from 95 % polyester (51 % recycled) and 5 % recycled elastane that dries quickly and is super warm and supple.
Sleeves and legs come with a high-stretch, jet-dyed lining made from 100 % recycled polyester. The outer material made of 85 % recycled polyester and 15 % recycled elastane was laminated with solvent-free AquaA™ adhesive. All seams are triple taped, sealed from the outside and additionally backed with tape from the inside. The Supratex knee pads and ankle cuffs offer robustness and a perfect, anatomical fit. The adjustable hood provides perfect protection against wind, weather and water.
