Fashion imprint NOAH introduces another design to join its Surf Line with the latest wetsuit silhouette that is made using the progressive Yamamoto #40 neoprene fabrication. It is made to be worn by triathletes and surfers across the close and it is traditionally crafted using a synthetic rubber-based neoprene that was made in the 30s by DuPont.
Fast forward to the 60s, Japan's Yamamoto corporation created a new process that creates neoprene using calcium carbonate that is found in limestone. This was the chosen material as it is not based on petroleum and uses hydroelectric power whilst recycling its wastewater. The new design comes in four different graphic detailed options at the front including Core Logo, the Sandpiper graphic, Oysterman, or Tulips.
