Fourth Element Men's Proteus II 3mm Neoprene Wetsuit - Scuba Diving, Snorkeling & Water Sports Thermal Protection

Conquer the Depths in Comfort: The Men's Fourth Element Proteus II Wetsuit

For discerning male scuba divers seeking the ultimate in thermal protection, flexibility, and comfort, the Men's Fourth Element Proteus II wetsuit stands as a benchmark in the diving gear market. Engineered with cutting-edge technology and a commitment to sustainability, this premium wetsuit redefines what's possible in underwater exploration, ensuring you stay warmer, more agile, and completely focused on the breathtaking marine life around you.

Unparalleled Warmth for Every Dive Expedition

When it comes to scuba diving wetsuits, warmth is paramount, especially for cold water diving or extended underwater adventures. The Fourth Element Proteus II excels in this critical aspect. Available in both 3mm and 5mm thicknesses, this full wetsuit is consistently lauded as one of the warmest wetsuits for scuba diving in its class. This superior thermal performance is achieved through a combination of innovative features:

• Hexcore Thermal Lining: Strategically placed on the torso, this advanced lining traps a thin layer of water against your skin, which is then warmed by your body heat, creating an incredibly effective thermal barrier. This means less heat loss and more time enjoying your underwater activities.
• Thermoflex Lining: Throughout the rest of the suit, Thermoflex lining provides additional insulation and exceptional comfort, allowing for unrestricted movement.
• Hydrolock Neck Seal System: A signature Fourth Element innovation, the Hydrolock inner neck seal creates a highly effective barrier against water ingress, significantly reducing flushing and maximizing your core warmth. This semi-dry quality is crucial for maintaining body temperature during prolonged dive trips.
• Glideskin Wrist Seals and Internal PU Ankle Seals: These precision-engineered seals further minimize water entry at critical points, ensuring that cold water stays out and warmth stays in.

Even the 3mm version of the Proteus II is designed to perform like many 5mm suits, offering exceptional thermal protection without compromising on flexibility or feeling bulky. For those venturing into truly chilly waters, the Proteus II can be easily paired with diving accessories like a Thermocline vest, Thermocline shorts, and a diving hood for an additional layer of insulation.

Engineered for Elite Performance and Ultimate Flexibility

The Men's Fourth Element Proteus II isn't just about warmth; it's also a marvel of ergonomic design and material science, offering an astonishing level of flexibility crucial for comfortable and efficient scuba diving. Crafted from a blend of high-quality limestone neoprene with Eco Carbon Black and Nylon, this stretch wetsuit moves with your body, allowing for:

• Unrestricted Movement: The anatomical cut and advanced panel configuration ensure a snug yet comfortable fit that eliminates bagging and allows for complete freedom of movement underwater. This is vital for effortless finning, manipulating scuba gear, and enjoying the full range of underwater exploration.
• Reduced Buoyancy: The Proteus II's intelligent design provides optimal thermal insulation with less inherent buoyancy compared to other wetsuits of similar warmth, contributing to better buoyancy control and a more streamlined profile in the water.
• Easy Donning and Doffing: While offering a close fit for superior water sealing, the high-stretch neoprene and strategically placed back zipper with a pull tab leash make this full body wetsuit surprisingly easy to get on and off, even after a long dive day.

Built to Last: Durability You Can Trust

Investing in quality dive gear means choosing products that can withstand the rigors of frequent use and challenging marine environments. The Fourth Element Proteus II is a testament to durability, constructed with meticulous attention to detail:

• Double Glued, Blind-Stitched, and Taped Seams: These watertight seams are not only highly effective at preventing water ingress but also significantly enhance the wetsuit's lifespan, making it a reliable companion for countless underwater adventures.
• Eco-Friendly Limestone Neoprene: Fourth Element's commitment to the environment extends to the materials used. The Proteus II is made with eco-friendly limestone neoprene, which utilizes scrap rubber tires to cut CO2 emissions, and water-based Aqua-X glues, eliminating harmful substances. This makes it a responsible choice for eco-conscious divers.
• Ultra Stretch Knee Pads: Reinforced knee pads provide added protection in high-wear areas, ensuring your wetsuit stands up to kneeling, ascending, and descending against rough surfaces.
