Key Features & Benefits
- OMNIRED™ Thermal Technology: 13 thermo-reactive minerals embedded into the fabric reflect body heat back as infrared energy, improving circulation and slowing thermal loss by up to 36%.
- 3-Layer Element Defense: Water-repellent outer shell, windproof/breathable membrane, and soft anti-microbial inner fleece keep you comfortable in and out of the water.
- 4-Way Stretch Performance: Provides superior multi-directional flexibility and breathability compared to standard 2-way stretch fabrics for complete freedom of movement.
- 2mm ELASTEK Neoprene Waist & Leg Bands: Ultra-stretch waist and leg cuffs form a comfortable seal against flushing to lock in core warmth.
- High-Cut Anatomic Waistband: Designed with a high-rise waist to ensure the shorts stay securely in place during active water sports.
- Molded Secure Closure: Features a sewn-in molded closure with an embossed pattern for reliable grip when making adjustments.
- Flatseam Stitching Throughout: Smooth, flat-lock seam construction eliminates chafing and skin irritation under gear.
Performance & Design
Neutrally Buoyant & Modular
Designed as a neutrally buoyant garment, ExoWear Shorts require no additional ballast weight. They can be worn alone in warmer waters or mixed and matched with ExoWear tops, jackets, or suit layers as conditions demand.
Advanced 3-Layer Fabric Technology
The outer DWR-treated shell sheds water to speed up drying times, while the breathable middle membrane blocks surface wind chill. The hydrophobic inner fleece wicks moisture and features Microban® anti-microbial properties to combat odor.
