Offering Discounts Patagonia Women’s R1 Yulex 3/2.5 Chest Zip Wetsuit

Patagonia’s completely redesigned their women’s wetsuits, which now feature a breezy asymmetrical entrance (they slide on and off with ease), a new fit and an ultra-soft 100% recycled polyester internal lining that feels like a second skin. Here’s the suit for the often-temperate Southern California (or somewhere like it) late-autumn into winter. The R1® Yulex® Front-Zip is a 3mm/2.5mm suit, built to perform and keep you warm in water temps at 60-65 degrees Fahrenheit. And, like all of Patagonia’s suits, it’s designed to last you multiple seasons and daily sessions (if that’s the kind of surfer you are).

Patagonia’s new suits feature an updated patterning across the back shoulder seam for ease of motion while paddling; a wider, lower-profile internal seam tape for utmost comfort; new 100% recycled, ultra-soft polyester arm and leg linings that saves 18 water bottles per suit; 100% recycled spandex in the external and internal thermal linings; AQUAa water-based glue; and, solution-dyed linings. They’re still constructed from a neoprene-free blend of 85% Yulex® natural rubber from sources that are FSC® certified by the Rainforest Alliance (meaning the forest of hevea trees––the source of the rubber––doesn’t come from a newly cut rainforest) and 15% synthetic rubber by polymer content. All Patagonia’s wetsuits are Fair Trade Certified™ sewn (the only Fair Trade Certified™ wetsuits in the industry, by the way).
