aNsweRS to Your Questions
| Question What’s the difference between HydroSkin and neoprene wetsuits? aNsweR HydroSkin garments are neoprene wetsuit pieces, lighter in weight and with advanced technical features. All of our wetsuits protect you by keeping water away from your skin and insulating your body from the chilling effect of cold water. HydroSkin has a 0.5-mm thickness of neoprene. It excels during those cool water/weather days. It also works well for layering with the heavier wetsuits and under splash and drywear. Our other wetsuits items use 2, 2.5 and 3-mm neoprene. The thicker neoprene garments are more restrictive and warmer. The thinner neoprene and four-way stretch PowerSpan outer fabric in the HydroSkin makes it very non-restrictive to body movement, though less warm. The brushed finish ThermalPlush inner layer is comfortable against your skin. All our 2006 neoprene pieces use the Titanium adhesive. This increases warmth and comfort without adding bulk. |
