Fourth Element Xerotherm Womens 2 Piece Set – Top Leggings

Description Fourth Element Xerotherm Women’s 2 Piece Set, Top & Leggings, combine the Xerotherm top and leggings in this great bundle. Both parts of the Xerotherm set complement each other with a high waist on the leggings and a long back on the top to ensure that the 2 don’t part leaving the diver with a cold lower back! Fourth Element Xerotherm is the ultimate baselayer for use under a drysuit. Made using Polartec® Powerstretch® originally developed for NASA, the Xerotherm traps a layer of air – a much better insulator than water next to the skin, keeping the wearer drier and more comfortable. The range is designed to be worn under another undersuit or on its own under a neoprene drysuit. The knit of the Xerotherm fabric produces the fastest wicking effect of any of the products in the fourth element product range. Moisture is drawn out through the fabric along fine fibres and then spreads out over the outer surface. This maintains a thin layer of air next to the skin. This is so effective in the Xerotherm that some wearers report experiencing minor suit leaks during the dive without even noticing until after the dive. “The performance is superb”. This was the reaction of Doug Allan, world-renowned and award-winning underwater filmmaker and author after testing the Xerotherm in -2 degree (29F) water inside the Arctic Circle in Svalbard, whilst shooting sequences for the BBC production The Blue Planet.
