ORCA - Womens - Zeal Hi-Vis Openwater Wetsuit
The Zeal Hi-Vis combines visibility, buoyancy and elasticity. It’s the ideal wetsuit for open water swimmers who face the harshest conditions. The arms, legs and back feature high-visibility orange for peace of mind. The buoyancy of Aerodome 2 technology will help you feel safer on your open water adventures. For increased comfort and better sealing, a second layer of “Batwing” neoprene is included, an extra layer of neoprene in the back that acts as a thermal barrier, reducing contact between the cold water and your skin.
Enjoy the convenience of the Mesh Backpack and Knit Gloves, included with the purchase of the Zeal Hi-Vis. These accessories allow you to store, transport and put on your neoprene without damaging the material.
Confidence in the Water
The perfect combination of buoyancy, elasticity, visibility and comfort in this wetsuit allows you to feel comfortable and safe when swimming in open water. In addition, the suit features Restube Ready technology, which can be used with a Restube buoy.
Maximum Visibility
The panels located in the extremities and back feature 39 HV (Hi-Vis) technology, a high-visibility fabric that will allow you to be seen in any weather conditions. It’s important to note that this product is 33% more visible than any other wetsuit.
High Buoyancy
The incorporation of technologies, such as Aerodome 2, gives this wetsuit a high level of buoyancy to boost your confidence in the water.
Comfort
The 5 mm leg panels, together with the “Batwing” hood, provide a superior level of comfort .
Cleaning
Neoprene can be damaged by excess salt or other chemicals such as chlorine if used in swimming pools. We recommend washing your wetsuit with plenty of water after each use. A small amount of neutral pH soap can be used and then rinsed out afterwards.
Once clean, make sure prevent it from holding onto too much moisture. Air dry it outside or in a ventilated indoor space, somewhere without direct exposure to sunlight as this can damage the materials.
Storage
Storing your wetsuit properly keeps the materials and seams from creasing and being stretched for long periods of time. It also prevents the material from wrinkling, which can affect both the wetsuit's durability and appearance.
The best way to store a wetsuit is to hang it draped over a hanger from its waist, so that the most delicate areas such as the shoulders and arms do not have any kind of tension on them.
Never hang wetsuits by the shoulders on hangers.
Recommendations for use
1) If your suit has Velcro, avoid contact between the Velcro and the inner lining of the wetsuit, as it will damage the fibers in the material. Keep the Velcro covered with the provided fabric patch or make sure that the Velcro is closed, so that the rough part of the Velcro does not damage the inside of your suit.
2) For all suits, especially those made with neoprene, be careful not to damage the neoprene material with your nails when putting on or taking off the suit, as this type of damage is not covered by our warranty policy.
3) Triathlon and open water suits have been designed specifically for swimming. We cannot guarantee correct functioning of the wetsuits for other activities. Any damage to the wetsuit resulting from use in activities other than swimming is not covered by our warranty policy.
4) Avoid leaning on or coming into contact with any surfaces (especially rough ones) while wearing your wetsuit.
