It's well known that women have a different body shape than men. That's why we consider it absolutely necessary to also have a women's long john in our range. Because only a neoprene suit that fits perfectly (i.e. sits snugly against all body parts) keeps you warm all around. We chose this model from Hiko because it meets several criteria. Firstly, it's cleanly made and long-lasting. Thanks to reinforcements at the knees, shins and seat area, the material is protected from abrasion at the most stressed areas. Secondly, Hiko makes a real effort to reduce the environmental impact of their production. The material used for this suit is also known as e.prene — a high-density, quick-drying nylon fabric. Various alternative techniques are used in its production. An overview of what makes e.prene special can be found in this
blog post from Hiko.
The cut is a specific women's cut — i.e. it's slightly wider at the hips than men's or unisex variants.
For men or more androgynous body types, there's the
Sandiline Basic Long John.
