Product description
Patagonia R1 Yulex Chest Zip Wetsuit - highly elastic wetsuit with a warm thermal lining
Patagonia's Yulex® wetsuits are made without neoprene and are produced in a Fair Trade-Certified™ factory. These wetsuits consist of 85% natural rubber and 15% synthetic rubber by polymer content. By replacing petroleum-based materials with plant-based alternatives, they provide the same warmth and performance as traditional stretch neoprene while reducing CO2 emissions during manufacturing by up to 80%. The materials used are certified by the Rainforest Alliance and the Forest Stewardship Council®. Patagonia combines natural rubber with chlorine-free synthetic rubber to enhance resistance to ozone and UV rays, while ensuring that the wetsuits meet high standards for strength, elongation, and durability.
