DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Comfort and Ride Feel
You'll feel targeted insulation from your very first dip: the 3/2 mm neoprene protects your torso without stiffening your shoulders. The integrated hood limits cold water flushing around your neck while remaining discreet during head movements. When you're out riding, the cut allows for unrestricted arm movements, so you can paddle, sheet in, or hold a bar without discomfort.
Sizes and Fit
The ION Neo top hooded Vest 3/2 is available in S, M, L, and XL. If you're between two sizes, choose your usual size to maintain the neoprene's elasticity; a cut that's too tight will reduce comfort, and a cut that's too loose will let water in. This neo top can easily be worn as a mid-layer under a full wetsuit.
Construction and materials
The key feature is the 3/2 mm neoprene: this thickness is perfectly adapted to maintain warmth while remaining flexible. The Lycra-type outer fabric limits chafing and makes it easy to put on. The hood is integrated into the cut to avoid uncomfortable seams around the neck.
Use and Care
Use this neo top as a thermal layer for cool sessions or during spring/autumn transitions. Rinse with fresh water after use and let dry in the shade to preserve the neoprene's elasticity. Avoid tumble drying and direct heat sources; store flat to maintain the cut.
