Orca Openwater Vitalis Shorty Wetsuit - black NN2Y

The Vitalis Shorty is a neoprene suit with short sleeves and legs, designed for swimming, but can also be used for other water sports. Hi-Vis panels in neon orange provide additional visibility for open water swimming. The durable outer material in the leg area increases the wetsuit's durability, while its cut allows full freedom of movement and easy on and off.

Features of the Orca Openwater Vitalis Shorty Wetsuit

• Versatility: This wetsuit is designed for open water swimming, but thanks to the durable materials on the legs, you can easily use it for other water sports like SUP, kayaking, snorkeling, etc.

• Durability: the DuraSkin outer material used on the legs increases the durability of the neoprene and makes it resistant to abrasion.

Cleaning

Too much salt is not good for your wetsuit. It can also be damaged by disinfectants, such as chlorine, if you use it in the pool. Therefore, it is recommended to wash the wetsuit with plenty of (fresh) water after use. You can also use a small amount of pH neutral soap and rinse it well afterwards.

To prevent moisture from remaining after cleaning, it is best to dry the suit in a well-ventilated room or outdoors. Do not expose it to direct sunlight, as this can damage the material.

Storage

By storing your wetsuit properly, you prevent the material and seams from buckling and warping. This will prevent wrinkles that will affect the durability and appearance of your wetsuit.

The best way to store a wetsuit is to hang it over the center of a bar or hanger so that sensitive areas, such as shoulders and arms, are not exposed to tension.

For suits with a very stretchy shoulder area (Apex Flex or Apex Flow) you should not use hangers, as this can reduce the elasticity in the long run. For all other models you can use a wide hanger as long as it does not put too much tension on the shoulders and collar.

Please follow the manufacturer's instructions for use:

• If your wetsuit has a Velcro closure, avoid it coming into contact with the lining, as this can affect the delicate fabric. Cover the closure with the strip of fabric provided or make sure it is closed so that the barbs of the Velcro surface do not damage the inside of your suit.

• For all suits, but especially those with exposed neoprene surfaces, be careful during donning and doffing not to damage the neoprene with your fingernails. Damage of this kind is not covered by our warranty.

• Triathlon and open water wetsuits are designed specifically for swimming. We cannot guarantee the proper function of your wetsuit for other activities. Damage to the wetsuit caused by activities other than swimming is not covered by our warranty policy.

• Avoid contact of your wetsuit with solid surfaces, especially rough ones, and do not lean on anything while wearing it.
