ZONE3 has expanded its open water product offering with a new wetsuit – the ZONE3 Switch – that has been built for stand up paddleboarding, kayaking, surfing, and open water swimming.
The ZONE3 Switch is positioned as offering comfort and functionality, aiming to enhance individual active lifestyle experiences by instilling added confidence in the water.
The wetsuit makes use of Yulex fabric, a natural plant-based rubber material derived from the sap of the havea tree. ZONE3 notes that it is committed to improving eco-friendly practices and reducing environmental impact. The ZONE3 Switch joins the biodegradable Vision wetsuit as part of a new raft of products focusing on sustainability and responsible manufacturing.
The shoulder and collar of the new ZONE3 Switch are made from a synthetic smoothskin neoprene, designed specifically for swimming. This material provides a snug but flexible fit for stroke movement and reduced drag in the water.
The body of the wetsuit accommodates a more generous fit, ensuring comfort, freedom, and confidence of movement for a versatile range of sports. The ZONE3 Switch design also incorporates durable abrasion-resistant knee pads, for paddle boarding or surfing.
Samuel Westlake, Product Designer at ZONE3, said “The Switch represents a new era in multisport wetsuits. We are thrilled to offer a sustainable solution without compromising on performance across multiple disciplines.
“We’ve seen a real boom in lovers of the open water involving themselves in a range of watersports over the past few years, and we believe the ZONE3 Switch will help to shape the way water enthusiasts experience their favourite activities.”
The ZONE3 Switch is available from ZONE3 with an RRP of £349.
