Huub Womens Archimedes III 3/3mm Wetsuit (Black/Red)

Description:

Thickness: 3/3mm

The third incarnation of the revolutionary Archimedes, the wetsuit that redefined buoyancy profiles to meet the needs of the modern triathlete. The Archimedes 3 takes the expectations of a wetsuit and its material components and breaks the mold—let alone break it. With never-before-seen technology, expectations challenged, and conventional materials reimagined, the Archimedes 3 leads the way in triathlon wetsuits.

Tested and developed on our exclusive 17-plate MAD™ (Measurement of Active Drag) system, the suit offers three major improvements to the world's best-selling premium suit, the Archimedes II.

Exclusive new revolutionary speed-enhancing features:

43™ is the most significant technological advancement in wetsuit materials in over 80 years. Since its inception in 1930, neoprene has been used in many applications. It wasn't until the late 1980s that the first triathlon enthusiasts were using smooth-skinned versions of neoprene, and we wondered why this hasn't progressed. During testing in our labs, we found that dimples and contours provide no performance advantage. It took constant questioning of the norm and a multi-year development cycle with our production partners at HD Labs to finally create a lighter, more buoyant material. The result? A revolutionary foam that's 43% more buoyant (than standard neoprene), and was well worth the 80-year wait! Neoprene will always have its place... well, for now! The Japanese Yamamoto materials we use are perfect for stretch and elongation zones, combined with our engineering and design thought process, there really is no substitute, but buoyancy offers a different set of needs. When it comes to wetsuit buoyancy, first there was neoprene, then NBR, and now there's +43™, and we can't wait for you to try it. Forgive us for patting ourselves and HD Labs on the back with our new +43™ foam material—because now, "it's not just about neoprene."
