Xcel Drylock X2 Wetsuit 5/4mm Frontzip Men Black
The new Drylock has also been completely interspersed with the new Celliant Black. In the front chest and back area, the High Pile Black Celliant lamination was used. Low Pile Celliant was used for the arms and legs. Maximum freedom of movement and ideal warmth are guaranteed.
Celliant Black
As soon as the skin comes into contact with the Celliant Black inner lamination, the capillaries are opened, resulting in an increased blood flow. The infrared process heats the water that enters the suit and insulates the heat generated due to the updated material mix. The X2 waterproof front zipper with magnetic closure keeps the water out. The Glide Skin Collar prevents flooding of the suit and equally provides freedom of movement around the neck. The exclusive Drylock arm cuffs provide a perfect closure of the suit in the arm area.

Inner NexSkin Seals
A thin band of liquid neoprene ("NexSkin") in the inner wrists and ankles creates an excellent seal and helps minimize flushing
TDC
Quick drying, lightweight and naturally water repellent. TDC is Xcel's warmest liner ever - for any neoprene product. TDC is unique and only found in Xcel products. The clinically proven Smart Fibre technology converts your body heat into infrared energy to keep you even warmer. In addition, it ensures increased endurance and faster recovery.
Ultra-Stretch Neoprene
Comfortable, lightweight neoprene made with lightweight foam and dense fabric for extra low water absorption, longer life and maximum stretch.
Quick-Dry Lining
Fast drying, hydrophobic premium lining. Fast drying time to increase thermal performance. Quick-Dry Lining is made from recycled polyester fibers to ensure the most environmentally friendly production possible
Glued Blinded Stitching
The neoprene panels are glued and then blind stitched. Blind stitched means that the needle does not completely penetrate the neoprene to keep even more water out. The seams are fully sealed and offer you maximum stretch ability of the wetsuit.
DuraFlex Knee Panels
The comfortable knee pads protect your knees from abrasions and other injuries. They are very stretchy, so they do not interfere with your movements or restrict your freedom of movement.
X2 Front Entry
With the waterproof front entry system, the front zipper runs along the upper chest-shoulder area. The zipper flap, located on the right shoulder, keeps more water out. The inner Crossover Neck Entry features overlapping panels that stretch to allow extra wide entry into the Neo.
X2 Crossover NeckEntry
The overlapping inner front and back neck panels (under the zipper flap) expand to allow for extra wide, entry
Xcel Magnetic Zip Closure
The innovative and quick-opening zipper features a double magnet on the zipper tab and attached zipper flap, which securely locks the zipper in place and makes it easier and faster to open than traditional closures.

Hint:
If your body measurements lie between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the larger size.
However, you should make sure that the wetsuit always fits tightly to your body like a second skin. This prevents too much water from flowing through the wetsuit and heat from being lost. TAB:How do you measure correctly?
To make sure that you find your perfectly fitting wetsuit, we have created a small guide on how to measure your body measurements correctly. With the help of the measured values and the size chart, you will find your perfect wetsuit.
Hint:
If you don't have a tape measure at home, a string and a folding rule or ruler will also suffice to measure you correctly.
Often we are asked in which temperatures and weather conditions it is best to use which wetsuit with which neoprene thickness. We are also asked how neoprene shoes, neoprene gloves or neoprene caps should be used. For this purpose we have created a rough guideline below, which is based on the specifications of the manufacturer Xcel.
We want to give you a brief overview of why you should clean your wetsuit regularly and thoroughly and how you can best clean it
Besides the hygiene factor, regular care also has an effect on the durability of the neoprene. If you simply hang your wetsuit out to dry in the sun after a session on the water and don't rinse out the salt water and dirt thoroughly, the neoprene can quickly become brittle and cracked. In general, we advise you not to hang your neo directly in the sun
A little tip when putting on the wetsuit: Make sure your body is dry, then it will be much easier to put on. Neoprene sticks to wet skin.
When you have finished your session, you should rinse the wetsuit directly with clean water. Then turn it inside out and let it dry in a shady and airy place. When the wetsuit is dry, you can turn it inside out and hang it on a sturdy hanger
Attention: Do not use the spin cycle under any circumstances!
An alternative to the washing machine is the bathtub. Simply take a small bath with 30°C water temperature and add some detergent, shower gel or rinsing agent and let the wetsuit soak. Then rinse thoroughly again.
Small tip: There are also great neoprene cleaners, e.g. from Mystic.

How should I clean and care for my wetsuit?
Care begins with careful handling of the wetsuit. When putting on your wetsuit, you should not try to force your way into it, as this puts too much strain on the seams.

Can I wash my wetsuit in the washing machine?
Yes, that is no problem. Just turn it inside out and close the zipper. The wool programme or the gentle wash cycle at a maximum of 30°C is best. We recommend using a mild detergent. To remove any detergent residue, you can rinse again with water after the wash cycle.Attention: Do not use the spin cycle under any circumstances!
