Materials
Texture Skin
Texture embossed rubber that provides excellent wind resistance; ideal for outer chest panels hoods, and other areas that would otherwise lose warmth quickly.
TDC Thermo Dry Celliant Low Pile
An Xcel exclusive, TDC Thermo Dry Celliant is our warmest wetsuit lining ever. This revolutionary material features clinically proven Smart Fiber Technology that converts body heat into usable infrared energy for greater warmth, increased endurance, faster recovery, and enhanced overall performance. The infrared print TDC is a low pile material for maximum flexibility, and is faster drying and lightweight, in and out of the water.
Construction
Pressure Bonded Seams
A glued & blindstitched seam using pressure to bond panels together for a highly durable yet still flexible seam; finished with inner taping for comfort; used primarily in the lower body (taping color varies by product).
Glued & Blindstitched Seams
A fully sealed, maximum stretch seam construction that keeps water out. Neoprene panels are glued and pressed together, then blindstitched (needle doesn't fully penetrate neoprene, keeping water out). Can be finished with seam taping for added stretch, durability, and comfort.
Fit
Double Flap Neck Dam
A two-layered neck with outer UltraStretch neoprene and an inner SmoothSkin lined dam for the best fit when layering with a wetsuit or other top.
