FOURTH ELEMENT ARTIC Men's One-Piece Underwear

FOURTH ELEMENT ARTIC Women's One-Piece Underwear

This thermal protection is based on two layers of dense fibres that trap air to create a real barrier against the cold. Its moderate thickness allows for good freedom of movement under a dry suit, while ensuring constant warmth from the beginning to the end of the dive.

The fabric also wicks sweat away from the skin, preventing moisture from building up against the skin, even in the event of significant condensation.

Its one-piece design limits air ingress at the waist and makes it easier to get kitted out, especially on the boat.

This model was selected for its ability to retain its insulating properties even when wet. It therefore provides additional safety for divers in the event of a micro-leak in the dry suit. Its two-layer structure also reduces weight compared to more voluminous traditional fleece undergarments.

🤿 Diveavenue's expert opinion on the ARTIC FOURTH ELEMENT Women's One-Piece Undergarment

"The Arctic is the benchmark for dry suit diving without ending up frozen. What I like about this women's version is that the cut is really designed to avoid excess fabric around the bust and waist. This gives you greater freedom of movement and more effective warmth. It's a robust garment that retains its loft and warmth even after several seasons. "

❓ Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Can this garment be worn directly against the skin ? Yes, but adding a thin technical layer such as Xerotherm underneath facilitates moisture transfer even better and keeps the Arctic clean for longer.

Is the zip practical for women? The double-slider front zip makes it easy to put on. For natural needs on the surface, the one-piece design requires removing the top, unlike the two-piece model (Top and Leggings).

Does the Arctic take up a lot of space under the wetsuit ? No, that's one of its great advantages. It offers insulation equivalent to much thicker underwear, which helps maintain a hydrodynamic silhouette and limits ballast.
