Fourth Element Thermocline – The Ultimate Thermal Protection
The Fourth Element Thermocline range is the perfect alternative to neoprene wetsuits, offering exceptional thermal protection with unmatched comfort and sustainability. Designed for divers who want warmth without the bulk, Thermocline is lightweight, flexible, and perfect for those with neoprene allergies or who struggle with tight-fitting wetsuits.
What is Fourth Element Thermocline?
The Thermocline range is an advanced thermal dive wear system that mimics the insulation of a 2mm neoprene wetsuit while being significantly lighter and easier to put on and take off. Whether you're diving in warm waters, layering under a drysuit, or looking for a travel-friendly wetsuit alternative, Thermocline provides the warmth and performance you need.
What is the Fourth Element Thermocline it Made Of?
Fourth Element’s Thermocline is made from recycled nylon, sourced from ghost fishing nets and post-consumer waste. This environmentally friendly fabric is lined with a high-performance fleece layer that enhances thermal insulation while remaining breathable and quick-drying. The material also provides neutral buoyancy, reducing the need for additional lead weights compared to traditional wetsuits.
How Warm is Fourth Element Thermocline?
The Thermocline material provides warmth equivalent to a 2mm neoprene wetsuit, making it ideal for tropical diving, snorkeling, and layering in cooler waters. The fleece lining traps heat effectively while allowing moisture to wick away, ensuring you stay warm and comfortable even on extended dives.
