You don’t have to choose between performance and the planet. Light, warm and ultra-stretchy, our Yulex wetsuits replace conventional neoprene with renewable natural rubber,* and are made in a Fair Trade Certified™ facility with solution-dyed linings that reduce CO2 emissions and water-based AQUAa™ glue that’s free from harmful VOCs. They’re setting a new standard, delivering maximum performance and minimum harm—with no compromise to either.
New this season, our latest neoprene-free Yulex full suits are stretchier, lighter and more comfortable, far surpassing our previous standards of performance. For our wetsuit developers and testers, function always comes first.
We’re dedicated to building the best wetsuits—but also to causing the least possible environmental harm. Two years ago we introduced the first neoprene-free suits, and now we’ve taken more steps to reduce the impact of wetsuit manufacturing.
We’ve worked with Sheico,the world’s leading wetsuit manufacturer, to introduce Fair Trade to the wetsuit industry. It sends more money back to the people who make our gear, and ensures that the factory complies with Fair Trade USA’s standards for safe and healthy working conditions.
Unique in the surf industry, we stand behind everything we make—including our wetsuits. However, wetsuits require care if they’re going to perform and wear as intended throughout their expected lifetime. See our wetsuit care guide and repair assessment form for further details.
