The Shield wetsuit combines targeted impact protection with warmth and flexibility – engineered for foilers who want performance and durability in one suit. With 4mm NaturePrene2® at the core and 3mm in the arms and legs, it provides balanced insulation and mobility for a wide range of conditions. Inside, Zodiac Jacquard velvet fleece teams with quick-dry thermal lining – trapping warmth while drying fast for consistent comfort. Constructed from FSC-certified NaturePrene2®, the Shield is 100% neoprene-free – delivering eco-friendly stretch and lightweight durability. The Free-X asymmetrical front-zip entry keeps things simple – one side fixed, the other open – with the zipper runner closing at the top to block water entry. By leaving the back panel seamless, it ensures maximum flexibility where you need it most. Reinforced shield zones add essential impact resistance – Fluid neoprene and memory padding at the shoulder, abrasion-resistant lining at the underarms, armored KED kneepads and a fortified shinbone section. Seams are triple-glued and blind-stitched (GBS) – secure, watertight and durable for extended foiling sessions.
