A Yulex wetsuit offers several benefits for open water swimming, especially for those who are environmentally conscious and seeking high performance. Here are the key advantages:
- Sustainable Material: Yulex is made from guayule, a plant-based, renewable resource. This makes Yulex wetsuits a more sustainable alternative to traditional neoprene wetsuits.
- Reduced Environmental Impact: The production process for Yulex has a lower carbon footprint and involves fewer harmful chemicals compared to conventional neoprene, making it a better choice for the environment.
- Hypoallergenic Properties
- Latex-Free: Yulex is naturally hypoallergenic, as it does not contain the proteins found in natural latex rubber that can cause allergic reactions. This is particularly beneficial for swimmers with sensitivities or allergies to latex.
- Performance
- Flexibility and Comfort: Yulex wetsuits are known for their flexibility, which is crucial for swimming, allowing a full range of motion without compromising comfort. This flexibility also helps reduce fatigue during long swims.
- Buoyancy: Like neoprene, Yulex provides good buoyancy, which helps swimmers maintain a better position in the water, improving speed and efficiency.
- Thermal Insulation: Yulex offers excellent thermal insulation, keeping swimmers warm in cold water. This is particularly important for open water swimming, where temperatures can vary significantly.
- Durability
- Resistant to Wear and Tear: Yulex is a durable material that can withstand the rigors of open water swimming, including exposure to saltwater, UV rays, and repeated use. This makes Yulex wetsuits a long-lasting investment.
- Comfort and Fit
- Soft on Skin: Yulex wetsuits are designed to be soft and comfortable against the skin, reducing the likelihood of chafing or discomfort during long swims.
- Good Fit: The material’s flexibility allows for a snug fit that doesn’t restrict movement, ensuring that the wetsuit stays in place and performs well in various swimming conditions.
- Range of Cuts: Our Yulex wetsuits have a great variety of different cuts, with the option of short, long or non-arm and bikini cut, hot pants or shorts for the legs. The great variety of cuts are to help maximise comfort for every shape and size and to help people gain confidence. Additionally, there are front zip or back zip options for the suits all with an embossed Yonda logo added on.
- Environmental Ethics
- Support for Sustainable Practices: By choosing a Yulex wetsuit, you are supporting sustainable and ethical practices in the production of sports gear, contributing to the broader effort to reduce environmental impact.
