Description
Onyx Core Shorty is a wetsuit with a thickness of 2mm, designed to fit tightly. It features long sleeves and a zip located across the chest. This chest zip effectively prevents water from entering the upper part of the suit, reducing the risk of water flushing through the neck region.
An ideal warming companion for various types of watersports.
- Aqua-A
Aqua-A is a solvent-free, water-based adhesive utilised in all Ion wetsuits.
- Seam reinforcements
To reinforce stress points within the wetsuit, Ion has incorporated Melco tape for enhanced durability. Ion advises: “If the suit is accidentally left in the boot of your car on a hot day, the tape might begin to peel. Don't worry! Carefully apply an iron to the affected area, as the adhesive is activated by heat.”
- Contour Cut
These wetsuits are designed to follow body contours, boosting both flexibility and comfort. Every Ion wetsuit features this contour cut technology.
- Drain Holes
To prevent the build-up of water where fabrics overlap, drain holes are incorporated. These drain holes maintain their size and do not expand.
- Internal Key Pocket
Within the wetsuit, there is an internal key pocket that is water-resistant.
- GBS - Glued Blind Stitched
To effectively bond neoprene panels for outstanding water resistance, panels are glued and then joined using blind stitch sewing.
- Supra Tex
The wetsuit uses fabrics specifically for more exposed areas, like the knees. The Supra Tex material offers enhanced resistance to abrasion.
