The big story here is that Microprene 2 utilizes 180% stretch Thermoprene Rubber throughout the Microprene Lineup which provides huge improvements in comfort and mobility. Microprene 2 is an ultra thin, hi-stretch neoprene that is superior as a base layer, but is also a good choice for any tropical environment. It boasts the same basic characteristic and features as thicker cuts of Thermoprene, providing outstanding insulation characteristics, elasticity and durability for a warm and flexible fit. Wearing Microprene 2 under a thicker wet suit is like super-charging your exposure gear. The extra layer of insulation helps create a more effective water barrier to significantly reduce water transfer. It also adds a minimal amount of buoyancy, helping divers keep their weight belts as light as possible.

Warmer, lightweight, and comfortable Microprene 2 is a perfect addition to all your dive adventures.

The hood helps shield the skin from abrasion, UV rays and biological irritants such as Sea Lice. Durable non-chaffing F
