ScubaPro 3/2mm Mens Everflex Yulex Full Wetsuit - WET520 02-SM
Everflex YULEX Dive steamers offer the same award-winning comfort and thermal protection that have made Everflex ScubaPro's best-selling wetsuit. They are designed with SCUBAPRO’S exclusive Pure Design Concept, with just enough multi-thickness panels to guarantee maximum stretch and comfort. They fit comfortably snug and deliver unparalleled freedom of movement. As an alternative to neoprene, Everflex utilizes a plant-based foam, YULEX® dive, made from FSC-certified-natural rubber. YULEX dive is specifically formulated to resist wetsuit compression while diving and is 100 % neoprene-free.

Maintenance Tips
- Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after every dive, especially inside cuffs, seams, and zipper areas to remove salt, sand, and body oils that can degrade Yulex natural rubber.
- Turn the suit inside out and rinse again to fully flush trapped salt/chlorine from the interior thermal lining for better warmth and odor control.
- Use only mild wetsuit shampoo or gentle soap when needed, then rinse completely to protect glued seams and Yulex material integrity.
- Hang dry inside-out first in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent UV damage and loss of elasticity.
- Use a wide wetsuit hanger to avoid shoulder stress and maintain the 3/2mm panel shape and stretch performance.
- Rinse zipper and remove sand/salt buildup; apply zipper lubricant periodically to ensure smooth operation and prevent corrosion.
- Avoid prolonged UV exposure, heat, chlorine, solvents, and petroleum-based products that can degrade Yulex rubber and bonding adhesives.
- Store fully dry in a cool, dark place, either loosely hung or laid flat to preserve flexibility, fit, and long-term thermal performance.
