Chapter 1: 2MM (glued blind stitched)
WHY WE CALL IT THE CHAPTER 1: The Chapter 1 Jacket takes it back to the beginning. Minus the Beavertail, it blends 80's aesthetic soul with today's fit, function and high tech material. Looking old school has never felt so progressive.
Geoprene is derived from 99.7% pure limestone. It is warmer (98% water impermeable) and lasts longer (titanium coated) than standard neoprene.
It is also kinder to mother nature since it does not come from petroleum. Geoprene is exclusive to Yamamoto Corporation and Matuse, Inc.
SOLUTION-SPECIFIC FEATURES
1. OLD SCHOOL LOVE; NEW SCHOOL FUNCTION
Chapter 1 brings back the aesthetic soul of circa early 80's jackets and blends it with the high-tech fit and functionality of today's premium suits.
2. HYDRASILKTM NYLON
Silky smooth, hydrophobic (i.e. rejects H20) material that's your windbreaker in the water. Makes you feel buttery inside.
3. GEOPRENE STRATEGIC PANELING
Super-low modulus, max-flex Geoprene that keeps the body's thermostatic line balanced (i.e. you don't get hot and tired from fighting your suit or cold and bitter from that oil-based neoprene).
4. MINI BACK-ZIP
The mini back-zip maximizes your ease-of-entry while minimizing water-entry.
