Description

Built for divers who demand reliable comfort and warmth during long diving days, the Women’s Xenos ARC 5mm Wetsuit combines advanced insulation technology with exceptional flexibility and durability. Whether you’re diving from a liveaboard, completing multiple dives in a day, or exploring cooler waters, this wetsuit is engineered to keep you comfortable throughout every stage of your adventure.

At its core, the suit features a dual-layer Thermoflex thermal lining across the torso, providing enhanced insulation where the body loses heat most rapidly. This targeted warmth is complemented by extended thermal lining throughout the remainder of the suit, helping maintain consistent comfort during prolonged exposure to cooler water.

Triple glued and blindstitched seam construction minimizes water penetration while preserving flexibility and durability. By reducing water movement through the seams, the wetsuit improves thermal efficiency and helps maintain warmth throughout repeated dives.

The low-friction lining in the arms and legs makes the suit easy to put on and remove while promoting faster drying between dives. This practical feature is especially valuable for divers participating in consecutive dives over several days.

To further reduce flushing and improve thermal performance, the Xenos ARC incorporates multiple sealing technologies. Glideskin Hydrolock wrist seals create a secure fit around the wrists, while internal silicone ankle seals help reduce water entry through the lower legs. A comfortable Glideskin neck seal enhances warmth and protection without restricting movement.

Ultra-stretch construction throughout the suit allows unrestricted mobility and a close, comfortable fit. Abrasion-resistant knee pads provide additional durability in high-wear areas, while the cut-away back heel notch makes donning and doffing quicker and easier between dives.

Constructed using natural rubber and recycled linings, the Women’s Xenos ARC 5mm Wetsuit delivers performance-focused design with a more environmentally conscious approach to materials.
