Patagonia wetsuits use the highest quality Japanese neoprene. It has a 98% closed-cell ratio, which adds dead air space and with it, warmth.
Patagonia lines their wetsuits with merino wool blended with recycled polyester, to trap more insulative dead-air space and quickly wick moisture away from your skin. (Patent Pending)
As a result, Patagonia's R2 suits will keep you warm in water ranging from 55 to 65 degrees and our R3s will keep you surfing when water temps range between 48 and 55 degrees.
Patagonia uses recycled polyester, chlorine-free wool, PVC-free kneepads and thinner neoprene layers (without sacrificing warmth retention) to reduce their impact on the environment.
