Simpel Men’s 2/2mm Short Arm Wetsuit - 18°C+

Yamamoto neoprene (#39/#40 blend) is a premium limestone-based rubber known for warmth, flexibility, and durability. Its closed-cell structure retains heat while staying light, comfortable, long-lasting, and recyclable.

The full-opening chest-zip entry creates a wider entry point for easier on-off and balanced shoulder tension. Its central placement supports even arm rotation and paddling freedom, chosen for the Warm Water Series to maximise flexibility.

Every material is chosen to work together. Premium Yamamoto rubber, high-stretch quick-dry liners, and carefully tested panel cuts function as one system, allowing the suit to stretch and move naturally for better comfort, fit, and feel in the water.

Yamamoto neoprene is known for its exceptional warmth, flexibility, and durability. Made from premium limestone-based rubber, it offers a lighter, more comfortable feel in the water, a longer lifespan, and can be recycled at the end of its use.

Two elastic tensioners sit either side of the bib, allowing you to tailor the fit. They tuck neatly away under the bib, helping create a close, comfortable seal that limits water entry and keeps the suit feeling secure in the water.

Abrasion-resistant knee pads add extra protection and durability where it matters most. They help extend the lifespan of the wetsuit, improve comfort when kneeling or paddling, and keep the suit feeling strong, reliable, and comfortable in the water.

An established technique for a super strong seam. A blind stitch is created by sewing two layers of neoprene together and only partially penetrating the material, minimising the possibility of water entering the wetsuit and maximising flexibility.

All seams are glued before blind stitching to create a strong bonded seal. This improves warmth, increases durability, and delivers a more flexible seam that moves naturally with the neoprene and stands up to long-term use.

Key seams are internally taped to reinforce the double-glued, blind-stitched construction. This strengthens high-stress areas, improves durability and comfort, and maintains a clean, flexible feel that moves naturally with you in the water.

Our Simpel Entry system makes the wetsuit easier to get on and off while reducing stress on the neck area. By minimising strain during entry and exit, it improves comfort, maintains a secure fit, and helps extend the lifespan of the suit.

To help prevent flushing, discreet drain holes are positioned at the front and rear of the neck panel. If water enters the bib, it can escape easily rather than pooling, reducing water movement inside the suit and helping maintain a consistent fit in the water.

Positioned inside the overhead panel, the Simpel key pocket includes an elastic loop to keep your keys secure while you surf. Easy to access yet discreetly placed, it keeps keys safely out of the way without interfering with fit or movement.
