Care Instructions for Putting On & Split Lining
Care Instructions for Putting On & Split Lining: Split neoprene offers excellent thermal insulation, but the exposed foam is very fragile. To prevent tearing and scratches from fingernails whilst dressing or undressing, the use of SOAPY WATER or lubricant is ESSENTIAL. Handle the trousers with the palm of your hand, without pulling on the seams. If there is a tear, apply some specialised neoprene glue.
Supratex Knee & Shin Reinforcements
Supratex Knee & Shin Reinforcements: The knees and shins, which are particularly vulnerable to friction against rocks when crouching, are protected by wide Supratex reinforcements. This high-resistance material protects the neoprene from abrasion whilst retaining the elasticity needed for a smooth fin stroke.
Integrated Urination System (Piss-Out)
Integrated Urination System (Piss-Out): To ensure your comfort on long trips, these trousers come with a built-in pee valve as standard equipment. It allows urine to be drained away without having to remove the garment or compromise thermal insulation. This system effectively prevents skin irritation caused by maceration, reduces unpleasant odours and makes undressing much more comfortable.
Stitch bonded assembly
4) Glued-And-Stitched Assembly & Waterproofing
Glued-And-Stitched Assembly & Waterproofing: The neoprene is first glued and then sewn for maximum resistance. The blind stitch does not pass completely through the foam: this prevents water from seeping in at the assemblies and maintains thermal insulation throughout your dives.
