When a 2/2 shorty makes the most sense
This model is built for the warmer part of the season, when a full suit starts to feel too hot but you still want neoprene protection. Short legs and short sleeves keep it light and flexible, so paddling, getting up on the board, and moving around feels easier. It’s a practical option for early sessions in surfing, wingfoiling, or kitesurfing in mild conditions.
Basic warmth and wind-chill protection
2/2 mm neoprene provides light insulation and helps reduce wind chill, especially during breezy beach breaks or longer time in the water. The shorty cut also adds a useful layer of skin protection against rubbing from the board, vest, or harness.
Stretch and comfort - Silk_Stuff lining
Inside, the thin and smooth Silk_Stuff lining improves stretch and next-to-skin comfort. It makes the suit feel less restrictive and helps with quick changes - a real benefit for younger riders who are in and out of the water all the time.
Seams and everyday durability
Flatlock stitching is a good match for warm-water suits, offering a comfortable feel and helping reduce skin irritation. Reinforced stress points add strength where the suit takes the most load, improving durability for frequent sessions.
S_Type limestone neoprene
ION’s S_Type standard foam is made from limestone instead of oil and offers a balanced mix of warmth and stretch. It’s a sensible material choice for a lighter shorty that’s meant to be used often.
Back zip entry
The back zip entry keeps things straightforward: fast to get on and off, easy to handle at the spot, and familiar for kids and teens.
