Freediving Wetsuit Jacket Explorer 5.0 Black 5mm Size 2 Mares 422500S2

Freediving Wetsuit Jacket Explorer 5.0 Black 5mm Size 2 Mares 422500S2

Description:

The Mares Explorer 5.0 freediving wetsuit jacket is a purpose-built upper for breath-hold diving that combines thermal protection with maximum flexibility and low bulk. Constructed from 5 mm open-cell neoprene with targeted 6 mm neoprene chest reinforcement, the jacket provides excellent elasticity, superior thermal retention and resistance to compression at depth. A pre-shaped anatomical cut and preformed chin section ensure a comfortable, watertight fit that follows body contours and minimizes drag in the water. The inner anti-slip, shock-absorbing chest pad improves weight belt stability and reduces movement-induced irritation during long dives. Adjustable VELCRO® closure at the front allows precise fitting and quick on/off while maintaining a secure seal. Durable stitching and materials make this jacket resilient for regular freediving use in a variety of conditions, and its low-profile design pairs easily with freediving wetsuit pants, booties and long-blade fins.
