Fourth Element Xerotherm Top

Description Mens Size Chart     Ladies Size Chart A great, lightweight, fast wicking thermal base layer, tried and tested in some of the most extreme environments on the planet. Suitable on its own under a neoprene drysuit in warmer temperatures or with another layer for longer or cooler dives, or as part of a layering system under a trilaminate drysuit. With flat seams and a long body to ensure that no separation between top and leggings develops, the top is the ideal next-to-skin layer under a drysuit. Thumb loops keep the sleeves in place whilst donning the drysuit and should be removed from the thumb and pushed back through the wrist seals prior to diving. Made using Polartec® Powerstretch® originally developed for NASA, the Xerotherm traps a layer of air next to the skin, keeping the wearer drier and more comfortable. The knit of the Xerotherm fabric produces the fastest wicking effect of any of the products in the fourth element product range. Moisture is drawn out through the fabric along fine fibres and then spreads out over the outer surface. This maintains a thin layer of air next to the skin. This is so effective in the Xerotherm that some wearers report experiencing minor suit leaks during the dive without even noticing until after the dive. • Outstanding thermal performance • Lightweight low bulk and buoyancy • Extremely fast wicking • Hardwearing • Machine washable • Performs when wet
