With blue skies, fair winds and long lines of swell rolling through the kelp, the best winter days in Northern California are tough to beat. Made with anatomical patterning and high-quality neoprene that meets Patagonia’s rigorous standards for stretch, durability and warmth, the new R3 Back-Zip Full Suit keeps you loose and warm while you’re trimming along smooth Santa Cruz walls. The torso and thighs are lined with midweight chlorine-free merino wool; hydrophobic recycled polyester micro-grid thermal lining in the arms and legs dries fast, minimizes weight and offers excellent flex. The easy-access center-back zip entry has an internal gasket to prevent water entry and maximize comfort. 100% external seam sealing eliminates leaks. Other features include a durable, water-resistant recycled polyester outer lining, hidden key loop and long-lasting Supratex kneepads. All seams are triple glued, blindstitched and internally taped at high stress areas.
