The Patagonia Women’s R1 Lite Yulex 2mm Long Sleeve Chest Zip Spring Wetsuit is now made in a Fair Trade Certified facility. These neoprene-free Yulex wetsuits are made of 85% natural rubber/15% synthetic rubber by polymer content. Replacing a petroleum-based material with a plant-based one, they offer the same performance attributes as conventional stretch neoprene while reducing CO2 emissions by up to ,80% in the manufacturing process. Derived from sources that are Forest Stewardship Council certified by the Rainforest Alliance, natural rubber has been blended with chlorine-free synthetic rubber to increase ozone- and UV-resistance and meets rigorous standards for strength, stretch, and durability. Offering full-arm warmth, comfort and sun protection for long sessions in warmer water, the R1 Lite Yulex Front-Zip Long-Sleeved Spring Suit is 2mm throughout, lined with stretchy and fast-drying 100% recycled polyester; the face fabric is an 88% recycled polyester/12% spandex blend. The floating front-zip entry provides excellent flexibility for paddling and has a corrosion-proof Salmi zipper that is fully repairable to extend the suit’s lifespan. Seams are triple glued, blindstitched and internally spot taped. Easy-access key loop included. Suggested water temperatures: 65–75° F/18–23° C.
