 Designed for recreational freediving, the RF collection uses a optimum combination of Glideskin, Smoothskin and lined neoprene, designed to maximise your freedom in the water, allowing you to focus on your breath, visualise and reach your limit.

Thickness of neoprene has been carefully considered in able to provide high levels of thermal protection whilst you dive, without compromising on comfort or freedom of movement. Glideskin panels on the outer surfaces have a hydrophilic coating which create low friction, enabling you to glide without difficulty through the water.

You can combine the RF1 suit and RF vest to enhance thermal protection. This creates 6mm on the critical torso area and 3mm protection for the head, keeping suit flush to a minimum without adding restrictive bulk.

Easy to don, yet effectively sealed by Smoothskin seals at the wrists, ankles and neck. A ‘black-out’ zipper and robust inner linings ensure that this suit is more versatile than open cell suits, but water ingress is minimised. The outer back panel is made from a durable skin that absorbs the suns heat and deflects wind chill, keeping you warmer for longer. Glideskin panels over the shoulders and along the legs give excellent stretch, improving fit and hydrodynamics, while subtle knee protection and more durable linings elsewhere ensure that this suit is practical for freediving in many environments.

Materials with purpose

Ocena Natural Rubber

OCENA® is a natural rubber developed by SHEICO Group for use in and around water. It replaces petroleum-based neoprene in wetsuits and other marine gear, cutting the carbon footprint by up to 95%. OCENA® carries USDA certification with 82% bio-based content, and SHEICO holds FSC Chain-of-Custody certification, so the rubber is traced through a responsibly managed supply chain.

ECONYL®

ECONYL® is 100% regenerated nylon, a significant percentage of which comes from fishing nets recovered from the sea..

UPF 50+

Rashguards The UPF 50+ fabric is a blend of recycled nylon and xtra life™ LYCRA®, which gives generous stretch and also offers extended protection against chlorine and salt.

No More Microplastics

Water soluble | Recyclable | Compostable
Biodegradable | Non-toxic | Marine-safe
Zero waste

Our No More Microplastics packaging is 100% water soluble, recyclable, compostable and biodegradable – eliminating the problems that plastic usually causes when we attempt to dispose of it.

Develop better products

A Better Neoprene

Limestone Neoprene | Recycled Rubber | Dope-Dyed Yarn (exclusive products)

After the neoprene creation process, the redundant trimmed materials will be recycled and reused in the mixing process to produce more neoprene sheets. Overall huge amounts of raw materials are saved, energy consumption is reduced and waste water and air emissions are minimised during production.

Recycled materials

The recycled dive fin. It is the unique combination of materials which makes this fin special. The plastic is made from 100% reclaimed post-consumer waste polypropylene and the rubber is made with recycled TPR. By using materials in this way, we are preventing plastic being sent to landfill or ending up as waste in the ocean as part of fourth element’s mission to become OceanPositive.
