Cressi Fast Wetsuit 3mm Men’s

Cressi Fast Wetsuit 3mm Men's

The Fast 3mm combines a full-length cut with a rear zip and smooth internal cuff seals. Its construction is useful when you want lighter neoprene coverage with attention to the openings where water can move through the suit.

Features and Benefits

• Fabric-lined construction: Fabric on the inside gives the neoprene a more forgiving contact surface when dressing and removing the suit. Ease the panels into place rather than pulling hard on a seam.
• Seam construction: Glued and blind-stitched. The joins help limit water passage through the panels and support the areas that flex when you move.
• Water control at the openings: Smooth internal wrist and ankle seals. A close seal reduces the repeated replacement of warmed water with colder water. Check that the seals sit flat and overlap properly with the rest of your exposure gear.
• Practical entry: Rear YKK zip with water-blocking flap. Open the entry fully before changing and settle the panels into place before closing it. A backing flap or internal barrier, where fitted, interrupts the direct path of water through the zip.
• Reinforcement: Reinforced knees. These panels help resist everyday rubbing at contact points without requiring the whole suit to use the same tougher outer material.

Technical Specs

Fit and Sizing

Compare your chest, waist, hips and height with the model’s size guide. The suit should sit closely without restricting breathing or shoulder movement. Settle the panels into place and check for excessive gaps or folds before deciding on a size. Match the thickness and coverage to the water conditions, activity and your own comfort. Warmth depends on fit, exposure time and the rest of your exposure gear.

More About This Model

YKK® rear zipper has the Aquastop® sealing system with smooth neoprene and internal under the zipper to minimise water infiltration. The neck closure has a significant design improvement that reduces water ingress at this critical point. The closure flap is now much wider and longer to prevent infiltration when tilting the neck underwater.

Particularly elastic nylon lining on both inner and outer sides to optimise the elasticity of the neoprene. It uses the same quality of neoprene as the rest of the Cressi wetsuit collection.

Gear Care and Washing

Dive Gear Australia recommends Cressi Neoclean Wetsuit Wash or Revivex Wetsuit Shampoo for compatible neoprene. Regular cleaning helps remove salt, chlorine and everyday residue and, together with thorough drying and proper storage, helps extend your gear’s life. Use the label dilution and follow this product’s care instructions.

After every use, rinse the suit inside and out in cool fresh water to remove salt, chlorine, sand and other residue. Gently hand wash when needed using a wetsuit cleaner suitable for the material, following the cleaner’s dilution instructions and the garment care label. Rinse thoroughly after washing.

Let both sides dry completely in the shade with good airflow. Support the suit on a broad wetsuit hanger, or drape it over a wide support to avoid stretching the shoulders. Store clean and dry in a cool place away from direct sunlight, heaters, hot cars and sharp folds.

Handle smooth seals and inner surfaces gently. Avoid scraping, scrubbing, fingernails and jewellery, and do not stretch a seal by pulling on a small section of it.

Rinse sand and salt from the zip and close hook-and-loop tabs so they cannot snag the fabric. Never force a jammed zip. Use only the zip maker’s specified lubricant and storage position; ordinary wax or silicone is not suitable for every specialist zip.

Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, bleach or use solvents. Follow the supplied care instructions for this suit and its zip before using any cleaning or maintenance product.
