Vissla North Seas 5.5-4.5 Full Hooded Chest Zip Wetsuit
MW54YNHC-BLK-XL
North Seas Wetsuits
Ultimate warmth in the coldest conditions
Made for very cold water: 38-48°F / 4-9°C
The North Seas is what you reach for when the forecast looks like a dare. This is our warmest, most watertight suit, engineered for the kind of cold that empties a line-up and rewards the few who show up anyway. A sealed chest zip, power-sealed seams and our warmest I-Foam neoprene keep the heat locked in while the flex stays surprisingly alive. When the water turns hostile, the North Seas is the reason you are still smiling at the end.
+ WARMTH & STRETCH
• Vissla's warmest, most watertight suit, built on I-Foam Premium: the lightest, warmest and stretchiest Japanese limestone-based neoprene available.
• Full-body hollow-fibre Fever Fiber lining insulates heat and dries fast; the arms add SS Fiber thermal for extra warmth.
• Upcycled XTEND exterior: eco-friendly, lighter, flexible, anti-fade jersey from Bluesign-approved mills.
• Dope-dyed fabric with solvent-free AquaA water-based lamination.
+ FIT
• Improved fit for a better range of motion, with anatomically engineered body lines and minimal seams for unrestricted performance and warmth.
+ DURABLE & WATERTIGHT
• PK S-LOCK watertight chest zip with Cris-X interior panels for easy entry and minimal bulk, plus a male and female channel barrier against flushing.
• Power Seam: an advanced, flexible waterproofing sealant on the outside of every seam for added warmth and durability.
• Vissla super-stretch Neo 3.0 tape inside for maximum seam sealing without losing stretch.
• Triple-glued, blind-stitched seams.
• Wind and water-repellent smoothy panels on the hood, front and back act as a barrier where it is needed most.
• Knee pad in upcycled Supratex, abrasion-resistant.
• Liquid-tape cuffs and a glideskin neck seal to prevent flushing.
• Easy-access secure key cord.
+ RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES
• For the coldest water, pair this hooded suit with booties and gloves to stay warm right through the session. See our Cold Water Necessities.
+ CARE

Bluesign
Our fabric mills have received the bluesign System Partner certification. In addition to monitoring the reasonable use of chemicals, the partnership ensures that our manufacturer's energy and water resource utilization efficiency and waste disposal all comply with the most demanding standards in the global textile industry.
Eco Carbon Black
Carbon Black, one of the key ingredients of neoprene, can now be made from scrap rubber tires. This significantly reduces energy consumption and cuts CO2 emission by 200g per wetsuit.
AquaA Water Based Glue
Aqua Alpha lamination glue is water based and completely solvent free with no harmful chemicals. Aqua Alpha replaces traditional solvent based glues in the lamination process which usually harm the health of the workers and the environment.
Limestone Based Neoprene
We used earth mined limestone to replace petrochemicals in our neoprene. It comes from nature and has less environmental impact.
Dope Dyed Yarn
All black, dark grey, and navy wetsuits, black inside liners, & Neo 2.0 super stretch black tape are dope dyed. Dope-dying infuses dye pigments into molten plastic solution to produce colored yarns without dying process. This saves tremendous amounts of water while reducing energy consumption and water pollution.
Tailored Fit
Anatomically correct engineered body lines allow for unrestricted warmth and performance.
Durable & Water Tight
Chest zip entry creates minimal bulk with contoured watertight design. Seams are triple hand glued, double blind stitched. Knee pad is anatomically correct, flexible, and strong.
