The Jobe Perth 3/2mm Back Zip Full Length Wetsuit in Blue is designed for water sports enthusiasts seeking flexibility and warmth in moderate conditions. Its key benefit is providing a comfortable and protective layer for activities like surfing, paddleboarding, or kayaking, with a quick-entry back zipper. A potential caveat is that the 3/2mm thickness is best suited for water temperatures above 15°C (60°F). This wetsuit features 3mm neoprene on the chest and back for core warmth, and 2mm on other panels for enhanced mobility, durable flatlock seams, and reinforced knee pads for longevity.

The Jobe Perth 3/2mm wetsuit is recommended for water temperatures between 15°C and 20°C (60°F to 70°F). This thickness is suitable for moderate conditions.
Start by putting your feet through the leg openings, then pull it up over your legs. Slide your arms into the sleeves and pull the suit up over your torso. Finally, reach back to pull up the zipper and secure it.
While it offers warmth and protection, this 3/2mm wetsuit is generally best suited for surface water sports. For deeper or colder diving conditions, a thicker wetsuit or a drysuit would be more appropriate.
The knee pads are designed to be protective and strong, enhancing the durability of the wetsuit in high-wear areas. They provide extra cushioning and abrasion resistance.
The numbers refer to the thickness of the neoprene. 3/2mm means the chest and back panels are 3mm thick for warmth, while the arms and legs are 2mm thick for flexibility. Thicker suits (e.g., 4/3mm, 5/4mm) offer more warmth but are less flexible and are for colder water.
It is best to rinse your wetsuit with fresh water after every use. A more thorough wash with mild soap or wetsuit shampoo is recommended periodically, especially after prolonged use or if it develops an odor.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wetsuits should fit snugly but not restrict breathing or circulation. Refer to the Jobe sizing chart.
Check that the zipper is fully closed and the flap behind it is correctly positioned. Ensure the suit fits snugly; gaps can lead to leaks. Flatlock seams are designed to minimize this, but a proper fit is crucial.
Rinse the zipper area with fresh water. Apply a small amount of silicone-based zipper lubricant specifically designed for wetsuits.
Ensure the wetsuit was rinsed thoroughly with fresh water and dried out of direct sunlight. Occasional use of a neoprene conditioner may help, but avoid harsh chemicals.
Setup: This is a full-body wetsuit and requires no specific setup beyond ensuring it fits correctly. The back zipper should be operated carefully to avoid snagging.
Compatibility: The Jobe Perth 3/2mm wetsuit is designed for general water sports and is compatible with a wide range of equipment including surfboards, paddleboards, kayaks, and wakeboards. It is intended for use in water temperatures suitable for its 3/2mm neoprene thickness.
