ION Element 3/2 Front Zip men

Description

ION Element 3/2 Front Zip Wetsuit Men is a wetsuit for you if you like to keep life on the water simple: soft, stretchy, and durable. The Element line keeps things simple but borrows several features from ION’s more technical range, giving you a durable all-round wetsuit without unnecessary frills. This full suit with front zip is a solid choice for kitesurfing, surfing, wingfoiling, windsurfing, wakeboarding, and SUP in mild water.

The simple approach doesn’t mean skimping on features: Inside, the plush-like Hot_Stuff 2.0 thermo lining on the back and torso keeps warmth in and shields you from wind chill, while the thin, smooth Silk_Stuff lining on the chest, shoulders, and arms provides increased stretch and comfort. The front zip with double-sided entry makes it easy to get in and out of the suit, as the zipper can be operated from either shoulder. The seams are glued and blindstitched with flatlock, while reinforced stress points and drain holes on the chest improve both durability and comfort.

  • Hot_Stuff 2.0 thermo lining: Soft, plush-like lining on the back and torso that retains warmth and protects against wind chill.
  • Silk_Stuff lining: Thin, smooth lining on the chest, shoulders, and arms for increased stretch and freedom of movement.
  • Front zip with double-sided entry: The front zipper can be operated from both shoulders, making it easy to get the suit on and off.
  • Glued blindstitch seams: Compact seam type combined with flatlock, making the suit robust and durable.
  • Reinforced stress points: Increased durability, including where the suit comes into contact with a harness, board, and other equipment.
  • Drain holes on the chest: Reinforced holes that prevent water from collecting in the suit.
  • Simple all-rounder: Simple construction with technical features - goes from beginner to advanced level.

Technical details: 3/2 mm neoprene · 80% neoprene / 20% polyamide · Front zip, double-sided entry · Glued blindstitch and flatlock · Hot_Stuff 2.0 and Silk_Stuff lining · Tight fit · Suitable for approx. 17-22 °C · Sizes from 46/XS to 106/XLT, including short and tall versions

  • Care & Maintenance

    Caring for your wetsuit: Always rinse your suit thoroughly in cold, clean fresh water after each session - both inside and out - so salt, chlorine and dirt don’t break down the neoprene and linings.

    • Washing: Hand-rinse in fresh water; use a mild wetsuit shampoo if needed. Never machine-wash your suit, and avoid detergent, bleach and solvents.
    • Drying: Hang the suit on a wide hanger or over a clothesline, and turn it inside out so it dries both inside and out. Always dry it in the shade - direct sunlight, a tumble dryer, radiator and hair dryer damage the neoprene and thermal lining.
    • Storage: Store the completely dry suit hanging on a wide hanger in a cool, ventilated place. Don’t leave it folded for long periods, and never store it wet in a bag or luggage.
    • Good to know: Avoid sharp objects and long fingernails when putting the suit on and taking it off, and always pull on the neoprene - not the seams. Lubricate the zipper regularly with zipper lubricant or wax so it remains easy to operate.
  • FAQ

    What is the ION Element 3/2 Front Zip Wetsuit Men suitable for?

    The wetsuit is a versatile full suit for kitesurfing, surfing, wingfoiling, windsurfing, wakeboarding and SUP in mild water – ION recommends it for water temperatures between around 17 and 22 °C.

    How thick is the neoprene in the wetsuit?

    The neoprene is 3/2 mm, meaning 3 mm on the torso and 2 mm on the arms and legs, which provides a good balance between warmth and flexibility.

    How do you get in and out of the wetsuit?

    The front zip has a two-way entry, so it can be operated from either shoulder – making it easy to put on and take off the wetsuit without help.

    What material is the wetsuit made of?

    The wetsuit is made of 80% neoprene and 20% polyamide, with Hot_Stuff 2.0 thermal lining on the back and torso and Silk_Stuff lining on the chest, shoulders and arms.

    How do I find the right size?

    The wetsuit fits snugly and comes in a wide size range from 46/XS to 106/XLT, including short and tall variants – use ION's size guide with your height, chest measurement and weight before choosing.

    How warm will the wetsuit keep me?

    The plush-like Hot_Stuff 2.0 lining on the back and torso retains warmth and protects against wind chill, while the glued blindstitch seams minimize water penetration.

    How do I care for the Element 3/2 Front Zip?

    Rinse the wetsuit in cold fresh water after each use, hang it to dry in the shade on a wide hanger, and store it hanging in a cool, ventilated place.
