Newly designed, high-performance wetsuit. Similar design and fit as our W7 wetsuit but equipped with front-zip instead of back-zip. Swedish cutting-edge design with all the high-end features and characteristics of a Waterproof suit. W8 is, as all models in our Neoflex series, made of extremely soft, flexible and comfortable four-way super-stretch neoprene. The W8 is also equipped with the WaterDam, our unique solution that prevents water of streaming down your neck and spine when moving your head. Our double Zipper Seal System behind the front zipper reduces the water flow through the suit to a minimum. Double seals with zippers at arms and legs adds comfort and easy donning/doffing. The thermal lining makes the suit soft, warm and comfortable. The suit is equipped with two anchor-straps with anti-slip for your computer, tough Duratex panels on seat, elbows and knees for abrasion protection, anti-slip surfaces over the shoulder and waist and our new designed soft Aramid (Kevlar®) kneepads. The two streamlined, easy to use and flexible pockets has space to hold a spare mask, SMB, deco tables or other things you might want to bring. All zippers are equipped with EasyGrip for easy opening and closing. W8 has the same elegant black and grey colour scheme as the other models in the Neoflex series, colours that makes a great combination with all your other dive gear. Our Neoflex series is manufactured with the best high-grade materials and technologies available – for maximized durability and extended use.

Rinse your suit after each dive with freshwater, taking particular care to remove sand and salt from the zipper. Wash your suit occasionally with mild soap. Other cleaning products may only be used if authorized by Waterproof.
When changing, avoid standing on the wetsuit and avoid sharp objects. Dry your suit in the open shade on a hanger, away from direct sunlight.
Do not store your suit for extended periods hanging on narrow hangers, as the suit material may become stressed where it passes over the hanger. Use extra-wide hangers specially designed for wetsuit storage (WP Hanger). Suits should never be stored folded, as it may create permanent creases.
