In the world of Roman generals, Scipio was one of the most Ichiban (the best) battlefield tacticians ever. Like Scipio's generalship, the Scipio is our most technically-advanced wetsuit offering and pound-for-pound the warmest wetsuit in the water due to its ergonomic fit and combination of blackZERO and Hidden Chamber Technology.

The hybrid Technology in this all 3mm model makes it the ideal wetsuit for those who surf beach breaks and are always on the hunt for the next wave aka the more you move, the warmer the wetsuit will be. The Scipio provides 4/3MM warmth, but with 3/2MM weight and flexibility, keeping you warmer and lighter.

What is Geoprene Technology? Learn More 

blackZERO Technology: The good stuff, a non-water absorbing material treated with liquid Titanium Alloy to slow down your body's heat loss / located front and back from the mid-waist to upper knees. NOTE: unlike fleece lined suits, blackZERO is a closed cell that absorbs no water. Therefore, your suit will be lighter, dry faster, and will be easier to clean as it will not hold onto sand and/or dirt.

Hidden Chamber Technology: More good stuff aka a multi-layered material that holds your body's heat loss and keeps you cozy warm for longer sessions / located in the chest and back panels.

Hydrasilk Pro: Our premium Nylon offering minimizes water adsorption and maintains your suit’s overall shape memory, adding to its longevity. Hydrasilk Pro is buttery-soft located inside and outside of your suit, aka you won't want to take it off.

YKK Stainless Steel Zipper: Prevents salt corrosion.

Internal pullover flood-bib: Minimizes water entry on zipper opening side.

Critical location Satin-Seal Taping: Silky smooth taping applied to the inside seams adds durability to areas of high use.

Easy access zippered key pouch: With elastic cord on lower leg / you don't have to take your suit off to access a key or other items stored while surfing. Non-locking enamel coated #3 YKK zipper prevents salt corrosion.

Bar far the warmest wetsuit I've ever owned

You don't need to purchase a 4/3 or 5/4 to be warm (In So-Cal). This 3mm suit is absolutely the warmest suit I've ever worn. The rubber is so incredibly soft and supple(ya, I said supple). It goes on so easily and comes off just as easily. The smooth rubber on the inside of the suit makes it really comfortable and for reasons I can't explain, keeps me incredibly warm. The integrated hood was a worry for me but I was totally wrong. If you don't want it on, it very comfortably slides off and you can't even tell that it's behind your head. When it's on, absolutely no water gets in and for those of us with surfers ear, that is a welcome advantage. This high-end rubber needs to be taken care of, I rinse this suit THOROUGHLY. Don't spend this much money on a top-of-the-line suit and leave it in your car to rot. Or, DO and just buy another one sooner. I have a TUMO that I've had for 7 years and the seams are still totally tight and the suit is still really warm, a little fraying on the wrists and ankles but it's still one of my go-to suits for the colder parts of the winter. Yes, it's a little pricey but I assure you, if you take care of this suit, it'll last you 3 times longer than the budget suits out there. For what it's worth, I have 2 Tumo's, This Scipio, and 5 Dante's, a short John, 2 jacket tops and a spring suit. Safe to say, I only wear Matuse suits.
