DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The Amaze Core series, 2023 vintage
The ION Amaze Core 2/2 Shorty SS Back Zip women's 2023 is a 2/2 short-sleeve shorty with a back zip from the Amaze Core series. ION positions this women's range as delivering superior performance at an affordable price, thanks to its versatile, simple construction. This 2023 model is an end-of-series item from ION; a newer version is also available on our site.
Warmth: Hot_Stuff 2.0 and Plasma_Plush
The torso is lined with Hot_Stuff 2.0, a highly elastic thermal lining that locks in warmth where it matters most. On the back, the Plasma_Plush fleece dries quickly and blocks icy wind. The thin, silky Silk_Stuff on the chest, shoulders, and arms ensures unrestricted movement.
Cut and seams
With seamless shoulders and fewer panels, ION has minimized the number of seams to maximize your freedom of movement. The seams are glued blind, and all stress points are reinforced. Plus, the back zip is designed for easy self-donning and doffing.
For what conditions
This 2/2 shorty is ideal for summer sessions on the Atlantic coast, and even early autumn for those who don't feel the cold too much. It's available in four sizes, from 34/XS to 40/L.

FAQ - ION AMAZE CORE 2/2 SHORTY SS BACK ZIP WOMEN'S 2023
It's perfect for anyone hitting the water from June to September who wants a shorty with a lined back to cut the wind chill when getting out of the water.
The ION size guide higher on the page provides the height and weight for each size, along with chest circumference. A wetsuit should be chosen to fit snugly when dry, with no air creases. If you are between two sizes, call us. The range goes from 34/XS to 40/L.
Rinse it with fresh water after each session. Turn it inside out and let it dry in the shade on a wide hanger. Never dry it in the sun or on a radiator. Never fold it wet in a bag. Close the back zip before hanging it and rinse the pull tab. Sand in a zip is what wears it out.
We are a Kite and wing shop in Pornichet, on the Atlantic coast. We also sell Surf gear. We ride all year in water that drops below ten degrees in February. We wear ION wetsuits before selling them. If you have a doubt about the size, or are hesitating between two thickness options, call us or visit the shop.
