The new Fourth Element Stinger Men's Wetsuit is an Ocean Positive garment explicitly developed to protect against UV rays and stinging marine life (stinging microorganisms and jellyfish). It is highly suitable for anyone planning scuba diving or snorkelling in the Indo-Pacific region, northern Australia, and other places where stinging microorganisms can be painful.
The Fourth Element Stinger Suit design for men includes integrated front zip, hood and mitts to assure close-fitting where the water flush is kept to an absolute minimum and allows to enjoy in-water sessions in tropical waters for much longer. The material is heavier than standard lycra, often used in the rash vest to give more protection against more harmful species.
This product is Ocean Positive, and we love it!!
