Orca Vitalis Thermal Men’s Openwater Wetsuit

The Vitalis Thermal is a thermally comforted wetsuit for open water swimmers. It combines specific technologies for heat retention such as Thermal X technology and sealing technologies such as a second layer of batwing neoprene, which prevents water from entering the zipper and neck area. The high-thickness panels give the swimmer excellent buoyancy which helps them conserve energy during cold weather sessions.

Enjoy the convenience of the Fabric Gloves, included with the purchase of the Vitalis Thermal, which allow you to put on your neoprene without damaging the material.

Characteristics

Thermal Comfort

The excellent thermal properties of this wetsuit were achieved with its construction of up to 5 mm-thick panels together with the Thermal X inner lining. In addition, its “Batwing” hood prevents the entry of cold water through the neck and zipper areas, for increased conservation of body heat.

Elasticity

39+ and 39FS technologies are incorporated in the shoulders and underarms to improve the elasticity of this wetsuit.

High and Neutral Buoyancy

The high-thickness panels located in the torso provide a high level of buoyancy, providing more safety in open water. In addition, thanks to its construction, it has a neutral buoyancy level.

Comfort

The Thermal X inner fabric is soft and comfortable, providing great comfort when swimming in cold waters.

Composition:

Neoprene : 95 %, Polyamide (Nylon) : 5 %

• Size and Fit Guide

  • Wetsuits should feel snug on and you will probably feel that range of motion is slightly reduced, this is normal. However, make sure breathing doesn’t feel restricted.
  • Wetsuit fit should not be too loose. This would let water flow freely through the suit and would therefore lose all the benefits of the trapped water being warmed by your body.
  • For a correct wetsuit fit, wrists, ankles and neck should be snug.
  • The fit should not be too baggy in the underarm or leg area. Some bagginess at the small of the back is normal.
