This suit uses Metalite-coated neoprene to “reflect” warmth back to the body and increase heat retention, while shedding water quickly to help protect against wind chill when you’re back on shore. In fact, test divers said this wetsuit feels more like a 3-mil no matter where you are.

Waterproof W2 wetsuit
The Editor's Pick from Sport Diver's 2011 Wetsuit Reviews: Waterproof W2 5mm
Tilos’ one-piece vest uses MetaLite, a smooth reflective coating on the inside of the neoprene that reflects body heat while you’re cruising the reef and sheds water quickly to help protect against wind chill when you’re back on the boat. The 3mm torso is comparable to a 4- to 5-mm in warmth. And the vest is easy to take off — MetaLite’s smooth texture with 4-way stretch and side zipper makes donning and doffing a breeze. Available in men’s sizes from Small to 2 Extra-Large and women's Small to Extra-Large.

It can be layered under other wetsuits without the need for extra lead. The farmer-john style explorer is paired with a long-sleeve top for complete protection from sun and water. Neutrally buoyant, hypoallergenic and machine-washable, the is a complete wetsuit system that takes up as much space as the average regulator bag.
