Xcel Comp X X2 Shorty Wetsuit 2mm Front Zip Men Jet Black
The Comp X X2 Shorty wetsuit manufactured by Xcel is made of 2 mm thick limestone-based neoprene. As such, it has more air pockets than the oil-based neos, making it warmer, lighter, more flexible and more durable. Due to its 2mm thickness, the shorty is ideal in the warm summer months to protect you from cold and abrasion, as well as UV radiation.
So that you do not freeze even in somewhat fresher temperatures, the suit is equipped with a soft thermal fabric from the inside, which not only guarantees you a certain warmth, but also promotes comfort and ensures that you do not get any problems even during several hours on and in the water. The zipper in the front chest area and the taped, blind seams make the Neo as good as waterproof.
The fit design of the suit makes it fit like a second skin and the flexible performance stretch in combination with the taped and blind seams ensures maximum stretch and freedom of movement. Additional freedom of movement is provided by the short arms and legs, so you can pursue your passion for water sports and spend the summer carefree in the water.
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 Neck Entry
The overlapping inner front and rear neck panels (under the zipper flap) expand to allow extra wide, entry. 
Xcel Magnetic Zip Closure
Innovative and fast 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.
Quick-Dry Lining
Quick-drying, hydrophobic premium lining. Fast drying time to increase thermal performance. The Quick-Dry Lining is made from recycled polyester fibres to ensure the most environmentally friendly production possible. 
Glued Blinded Stitching
The neoprene panels are glued and then blind stitched. Blind stitching means that the needle does not fully penetrate the neoprene to keep even more water out. The seams are fully sealed, giving you maximum stretch ability of the wetsuit.
To increase your own safety in and on the water, every water sports lover should equip themselves with a wetsuit. These not only protect you from abrasions, but also from sunburn, cold and much more, which could make you lose the joy of activities in and on the water.

Hint:
If your body measurements are between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the larger size.
However, you should make sure that the wetsuit always fits tightly like a second skin on the body. 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 provided a rough guideline below, based on the specifications of the manufacturer Xcel.
We want to give you a short overview why you should clean your wetsuit regularly and thoroughly and how to clean it best.
In addition to 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 run a small bath at 30°C and add some detergent, shower gel or dishwashing liquid and let the wetsuit soak. Then rinse thoroughly again.
Small tip: There are also great neoprene cleaners, e.g. from Mystic.
Why should I clean my wetsuit?

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. Hectic and fast movements also put a lot of stress on the seams, so they could tear.A little tip when putting on the wetsuit: Make sure your body is dry, then it will be much easier to put on.

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 all detergent residues, you can rinse again with water after the wash cycle.Attention: Do not use the spin cycle under any circumstances!
