DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Comfort and Ride Feel
The moment you hit the water, you'll feel the targeted insulation. The 3/2 mm neoprene protects your core without making your shoulders feel stiff. The integrated hood prevents cold water flushing down your neck and stays put as you move your head. On the water, the cut gives you total freedom for paddling, sheeting in, or holding your control bar without any restriction.
Sizes and Fit
The ION Neo top hooded Vest 3/2 is available in S, M, L, and XL. If you're between sizes, we recommend sticking to your usual size to get the most out of the neoprene's stretch. A fit that's too tight will feel restrictive, while one that's too loose will let cold water flush in. This neo top works perfectly as a layering piece under a full wetsuit.
Construction and materials
The core of this top is its 3/2 mm neoprene, the ideal thickness for maintaining warmth while staying flexible. The smooth, lycra-style outer fabric reduces chafing and makes it easy to pull on. The hood is integrated into the design without uncomfortable seams around your neck.
Use and Care
Use this neo top as a thermal layer for cooler sessions or during those transitional spring and autumn days. Rinse with fresh water after every use and hang to dry in the shade to preserve the neoprene's stretch. Avoid tumble dryers and direct heat. Store it flat to maintain its shape.
