Akona's 3mm nylon II neoprene jumpsuit is glued and blind stitched inside and out, has a YKK #10 Brass zipper with low profile water sealing zipper design. Akona's unique zipper design utilizes dual rubber strips to additionally seal the zipper opening when closed, creating a water resistant closure. In addition,Akona's low profile zipper flap folds over a closed zipper to further seal and secure the zipper in its closed position. The reinforced pull loop at the base of the zipper makes self-donning of the suit fast and easy.
Akona's uniquely designed and stylistic knee pads provide exceptional grip and durability. Unlike the stiff rubber knee pads utilized on other suits today, Akona's revolutionary AKONA knee pad material is fully flexible, and has a hydrodynamic low profile. Akona Grab Shoulder material provides superior wear and scuff protection. Designed to grip a buoyancy compensator to reduce shifting, the Grab Shoulders create a snug and movement-free fit. The unique pattern of the Grab Shoulder material also prevents excessive stretching of the suit when hung to dry.

Comments about Akona Akona Women's 3mm Jumpsuit:
The product was purchased as a gift for too-cold swimming pool exercise. [...]The product was returned because the torso was too short even though other fit was OK. Not sure how to select an alternate product without trying on. My wife ultimately went with a man's size. [...]
