The Cressi Tecnica 3.5mm wetsuit is an apnea or spearfishing suit featuring a green camouflage pattern, great for spearfishing in temperate waters.
The Tecnica inner lining is made of open cell neoprene which is actually neoprene without an internal liner, making it more fragile but keeping you warmer by sticking to the skin and trapping more water, minimising flushing.
Extra caution needs to be applied when sliding into the suit, not digging fingernails in the neoprene as this is an Open Cell suit.
It includes a large abrasion resistant chest pad made of gripping material, ideal for reloading guns but without being too rigid and uncomfortable. The arms feature anti-abrasion elbow pads and underneath, anatomically cut panels for added flexibility.
The jacket has a built-in hood and a glide skin waist seal, in order to slow down water entry. Underneath the jacket, we find the salopette, doubling up the amount of neoprene surrounding the core (7mm!).
The seams on the whole suit are blind stitched and glued, so not treads on the inner lining rubbing against the skin, making this wetsuit very comfortable to wear.
On the legs we can see again the camouflaged pattern, including knee pads made of armor material resistant to wear and tear all the way down to the shins, while featuring an extra stretching material behind the knees, for added freedom of movement.
The Tecnica anatomic cut design is 3D engineered to fit naturally, avoiding extra water ingress without compromising on flexibility, thanks to the contour fit and the extra stretchy open cell neoprene.
