The 'Shark Stop' wetsuit is a safety focused garment for avid surfers, snorkelers and aquatic explorers alike that will provide them with a way to enjoy enhanced peace of mind when heading into the water.
The wetsuit is made with a premium fabric that utilizes space-age nanofiber technology to prevent a shark attack from causing fatal injuries. The wetsuit is thus capable of offering a 50% greater strength to weight ratio when compared to Kevlar, while also making use of bio-neoprene in the construction that has the lowest carbon footprint when it comes to modern wetsuits.
The 'Shark Stop' wetsuit is designed with safety in mind, but won't inhibit the movement of the wearer to ensure optimal comfort and agility.
