Patagonia 4/3mm Regulator Wetsuit Black

The Patagonia Regulator 4/3mm black wetsuit combines Yulex® natural rubber with a neoprene-free construction, developed for water temperatures between 10 °C and 16 °C. The snug fit and flexible materials help maintain warmth and comfort during your session.

Warmth for the body, flexibility for the arms:

This full suit uses 4mm Yulex® rubber in the body and 3mm in the arms, balancing thermal insulation and mobility in the zones that need movement most. The redesigned cut promotes freedom of movement from shoulders to ankles, while the snug fit helps minimize water circulation inside.

Natural rubber and recycled fabrics:

• Composition of 85% Yulex® natural rubber and 15% chlorine-free synthetic rubber, by polymer content.
• Natural rubber sourced from sources certified by the Forest Stewardship Council® by Preferred by Nature™.
• Interior and exterior fabrics made with NetPlus®, post-consumer recycled nylon made from recycled fishing nets, helping to reduce ocean plastic pollution.
• Solution-dyed, a process that uses no water during coloring.

The NetPlus® exterior is composed of 87% recycled nylon and 13% elastane. Inside, the lower torso and arms use high-stretch recycled nylon jersey. On the chest and back, the thermal grid structure combines 94% recycled nylon and 6% elastane.

Practical entry and reduced water intake:

The U-zip entry, originally developed by Axxe Wetsuits and perfected by Patagonia, makes it easier to put on and helps reduce water entry. The YKK® #5 stretch-coil zipper provides elasticity, comfort, and freedom of movement, with an elongated pull for easy access.

• Triple-glued and blind-stitched seams, reinforced with internal elastic tape to improve flexibility.
• Liners laminated with AquaA™ water-based, solvent-free glue.
• Rubber seals on the wrists and ankles for a secure fit and reduced water intake.
• Easy-access key loop for storage while surfing.

Construction and weight:

With an approximate weight of 1,593 g, this wetsuit is made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory. The construction combines lower-impact materials, comfort, flexibility, and thermal protection for cold-water sessions.

Care to preserve the suit:

Hand wash, do not bleach, and drip dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
