ARC 5/4mm Outdoor Centre/Coasteering Unisex Back Zip Wetsuit

The Funky Town ARC Unisex Centre & Coasteering wetsuit is possibly the ultimate adventure activity wetsuit on the market and is used extensively in outdoor centres across the UK and Europe. It has been designed to supply surf schools and outdoor watersports centres with an ultra hard-wearing wetsuit suitable for all adventure activities and cope with the rigours that daily centre use can throw at it.  Ideal for surfing, coasteering, canyoning, white water rafting, kayaking and paddlesports, the ARC boast strategic reinforced areas to offer unrivalled durability and protection.  We have developed this wetsuit over a number of years, taking on board feedback from the centres and schools we supply. We use only premium materials and every bit of wetsuit technology going to make an excellent option for adventurers who need a wetsuit for regular all year round use.

Ultra hard-wearing, the ARC wetsuit features double Glued and Blind-Stitched seams, a heavily reinforced lumbar/seat, forearm and tough core-tex knee.  The revolutionary diagonal back zip design significantly reduces strain at the base of the zip and enhances flexibility through the trunk - perfect for a centre environment.

The ARC is a 4 season wetsuit built to withstand very cold water temperatures. We use 5mm thick neoprene on the torso, 4mm on the legs and 3mm on the shoulders and arms, for warmth where you need it. Additionally, we've added in super stretchy panels where you need extra movement (under arm, back, thigh and lower leg) with the addition of specially adapted chest and leg panels to accommodate both male and female body shapes.  The soft and stretchy neoprene allows for a relaxed, luxury fit with full freedom of movement for intense activities.

Please check the size guide in the size tab or in thumbnail images to find the best fit for you or your clients.  Pair with our ARC wetsuit boots for added protection.  Also available in kids sizes.

Recycle Your Old Wetsuit
At Circle One, we've gone one step further to combatting the on-going problem of end-of-life wetsuits ending up in landfill.  As part of our commitment to sustainability, we operate a wetsuit recycling / re-purposing scheme in partnership with Barefoot Tech based in South Wales.  Barefoot Tech take the usable material from end-of-life wetsuits and neoprene accessories and turn them into unique, fashionable accessories.
