Is This The Most Eco Friendly Wetsuit Ever?

Is This The Most Eco Friendly Wetsuit Ever?

Wetsuits have always been a little thorn in the side of our eco credentials, until now. Here is a wetsuit collection made of 100% NaturalPrene.

One of the uncomfortable truths of our sport is that however personally eco friendly we may be, our equipment is not. Kites, boards and wetsuits have always been a little thorn in the side of our eco credentials, until now.

Picture Organic Clothing have developed a wetsuit collection made of 100% NaturalPrene.

The NaturalPrene stretch technology : a wetsuit made of 85% natural rubber from a Malaysian plantation and 15% synthetic chlorine-free rubber (made from plants). Moreover, we used a revolutionary production process, integrating micro particles that enable NaturalPrene to extend up to almost 4 times its original size and solvent-free water based glue to paste the recycled polyester lining, which permits maximum comfort and ultra-fast drying.

Available NOW… Although not available until Summer 2017, we were really impressed by the styles shown in the press release so we thought we should share the excitement with you.

Of course these are not the ONLY eco friendly wetsuits, Patagonia makes a plant based wetsuit from a material called Yulex, and Swish Wetsuits make theirs from Bioprene which is derived from limestone.
