Seek Amp 3/2 Front Zip 2026 Wetsuit

Performance & Feel

The Seek Amp sits at the top of ION's wetsuit range, built around one thing above all: flexibility. The 3/2 is its warmer-months version. Fewer panels, a continuous run of neoprene across the front and back, and the seam-free Sweep_Cut shoulder mean there's a lot of flexibility. For 2026 a refined generation of Max_Flex extends right across the shoulders, arms and upper chest, the part of the suit you load most when you paddle, reach and rotate, so there's even less working against you up top.

For a 3/2 suit it is also very warm, and this year it's even warmer. The lightweight I_foam neoprene traps more air in its structure than standard foam, Hot_Stuff 2.0 lines most of the suit with ION's plushiest, stretchiest thermal lining, and the Plasma_Plush 2.0 panel now covers a larger area for quick-drying warmth. Silk_Stuff lines the rest of the suit and feels soft next to the skin. The neoprene also takes in Oyster Shell Powder and Eco Carbon Black as part of a more environmentally considered manufacture.

The front zip seals across the chest. Dry_Grid lining absorbs up to 30% less water, so the suit stays lighter and chills you less by evaporation. Seal_Tite cuffs keep water ingress down.
