Magma = thermal energy

All MAGMA short johns are made with 2mm Yamamoto, a limestone based rubber from Japan that is warmer, lighter and dries faster than petroleum-based neoprene. Yamamoto rubber has a lower carbon footprint and it lasts longer, meaning less suits in landfill and more time in the water. 

These are premium wetsuits with a highly contoured fit, super soft nylon/spandex liner, YKK zips and glued and blind stitched seams. Smooth skin outer converts solar radiation to thermal energy.

Why Yamamoto?

• Warmer — Higher thermal retention from higher nitrogen content in closed-cell structure
• Lighter — Lighter due to increased air content, enhancing buoyancy and flexibility
• More Flexible — Superior stretch and elasticity of closed-cell structure provides better range of motion
• More Durable — Maintains shape and elasticity under frequent use, more resistant to weathering and compression
• Dries Faster — Closed-cell structure absorbs less water, making it dry faster
