Product Info

The Patagonia R2 Yulex 3.5/3 Chest Zip Wetsuit is for the surfer who wants to get in the water faster, surf longer, and wear a suit that leaves a lighter impact on the environment than ever before. Designed for water in the 55-60 degrees Fahrenheit range.

Patagonia’s wetsuit line has been completely redesigned this season. The new suits feature an updated patterning across the back shoulder seam for ease of motion while paddling; a wider, lower-profile internal seam tape for utmost comfort; new 100% recycled, ultra-soft polyester arm and leg linings that saves 18 water bottles per suit; 100% recycled spandex in the external and internal thermal linings; AQUAa water-based glue; and, solution-dyed linings. They’re still constructed from a neoprene-free blend of 85% Yulex® natural rubber from sources that are FSC® certified by the Rainforest Alliance (meaning the forest of hevea trees––the source of the rubber––doesn’t come from a newly cut rainforest) and 15% synthetic rubber by polymer content. All Patagonia’s wetsuits are Fair Trade Certified™ sewn (the only Fair Trade Certified™ wetsuits in the industry, by the way).

Neck fits tight

Great construction overall, but the MS fits too tight around the neck for my 68" x 162 lbs frame.

Great Service!!

I haven’t been in the water yet but the service was great! Even came with a few Starbursts and a thank you note. Thanks guys! I’m sure the wetsuit will be phenomenal.

Good fit, flexible, green

Quality brand that holds up well for many uses and conditions. Third wetsuit from Patagonia and ordered through cleanline surf. Great customer service and fast shipping .

Awesome in so many ways

Initially I looked into getting a Patagonia wetsuit because of the environmental materials and fair trade labor. But its seriously the best wetsuit I have ever worn. Worth every penny. Its soft and the mens MT fits like a glove (Im a 62 woman, 155lb, 36 chest, 30 waist, 39 hips, 35 inseam). The legs are a little short, but you cant expect anything to fit 3 legs. The chest runs a little small this year, which works perfectly for me. Guys with a 40 chest might take that into consideration. The wrists and ankles are nice and snug. Lifetime Ironclad Guarantee. Seriously awesome.
