MATUSE has the absolute best wetsuits and materials in the biz… hands down! The jacket fits me like a glove… it’s stretchy yet super warm for only being a 2mm! I really love it and the staff over at MATUSE is amazing!
Easy to put on and take off. Its skintight and fits like a glove. Its really impressive how they managed to make such a sleek looking jacket without compromising quality or functionality. Perfect for the days that start out cool but warms up.
I received the package timely and got to try it on a blustery surf session in Oahu in late January. I usually get cold quickly but this top kept me warm throughout my session: The material was thinner than other 2mm jackets I've owned so I was worried it won't keep me warm enough but it did!
The lightness of the material also made for better mobility. I loved how my arms didn't feel restricted when i paddled.
I've always had full front-zip jackets so I was worried about getting in and out of this wetsuit top, but the half back-zip was no problem at all and I loved not having that extra zipper bulk against my surfboard when I paddle.
I'm 5'2, about 107 lbs, 32B and the size 4 fit perfectly.
Perfect for our winters in Hawaii
First ‘wetsuit’ top that I have owned that doesn’t feel ‘wet’. During my session or hanging around on the beach after, I don’t get a wind chill, like I do in a normal wet wetsuit. My skin feels dry when I take it off. When I hang it to dry, water doesn’t even drip off. So much warmer and more comfortable then any other brand I have ever worn. Love it so much that I just ordered the spring suit. Well worth the higher price point, if you don’t like being cold!
