DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A zipped neo top that's more technical than a lycra
ION designed the ION Neo Zip Top 1.5 women's to be more refined and technical than a standard lycra. It offers 100% UV protection, retains warmth, and creates a barrier against chafing and bruises from your harness or surfboard. The front zip makes it easy to put on and take off.
Materials
The neoprene is 1.5 mm thick. The outer lining is flexible and very stretchy. Inside, the Silk_Stuff feels smooth and soft against your skin. ION states the composition as 80% neoprene and 20% polyamide.
Finishes
Fused edges make this top more durable. The panels are assembled with Flat_Lock seams. A Slip_Loop connects it to your bottoms, and the Sunglasses_Loop at the neckline holds your sunglasses' safety line.
Colorways and sizes
Two colors are available: Black Flowers, a floral print on a black background, and Capsule Statement, a colorful graphic print that is an end-of-line item from ION. Choose from five sizes, from 34/XS to 42/XL.

FAQ - ION NEO ZIP TOP 1.5 WOMEN
Wear it over a swimsuit or neoprene bottom, connected by the Slip_Loop. It protects against sun, wind, and harness chafing. When the water is cold, it does not replace a fullsuit.
The Neo Zip Top 1.5 has a front zip and is 1.5 mm thick. The Neo Top 2/2 LS pulls over your head, is 2 mm thick, and adds a warmer Hot_Stuff 2.0 thermal lining.
The size guide above includes ION's Tops chart: chest circumference, waist circumference, and arm length. A neo top should be worn close to the body, without air pockets. Otherwise, it will not retain heat. If you are between two sizes, come and try it on at the store.
Rinse it with fresh water after each session. Turn it inside out, and let it dry flat in the shade or on a wide hanger. Never dry it in the sun or on a radiator, and never roll it up wet in a bag.
We are a Kite, wing, and Surf shop in Pornichet, on the Atlantic coast. We ride all year round. We wear ION neoprene before we sell it. If you have a doubt about the size or are hesitating between two models, call us or visit the shop.
