Kuwae is a one-piece suit specifically designed for swimming and apnea, the result of Cressi’s extensive experience in pattern-making, assembly, and material selection, inherited from its freediving and diving suits.
Design and Pattern-Making
• Fully designed using sophisticated 3D software, allowing detailed study of material fit and sizing on virtual mannequins.
• Cut optimized for maximum comfort and prevention of chafing, especially in high-mobility areas such as the armpits and shoulders.
Neoprene
• Neoprene in different thicknesses (2 – 3 – 4 mm) adapted to the needs of each area of the body:
- 4 mm: Front of the legs and chest → Enhances buoyancy and trim while swimming on the surface.
- 2 mm: Torso, arms, and armpits → Improved fit and mobility, full freedom of movement.
- 3 mm: Back and inner thighs → Enhances buoyancy and thermal protection.
Medium-density neoprene with:
• Smooth outer finish and water-repellent treatment → Excellent hydrodynamics and high tear resistance.
• Ultraspan© inner lining → Extremely elastic and soft to prevent chafing, while offering high durability.
• This combination provides significantly greater durability and resistance than commonly found in swim and triathlon wetsuits.
Construction
• Panels assembled using watertight gluing and reinforced interior stitching, including:
- Thermosealed discs at seam intersections for added durability.
- Newly designed scooped neck → Prevents friction and ensures a tight seal against water entry.
- Finished with 100% smooth neoprene hems → Enhanced comfort and chafe-free wear.
- Forearm area features inverted scale texture → Improves propulsion while swimming.
- YKK zipper with metal slider and anti-corrosion treatment → Increased strength and durability.
- Oversized back flap → Minimizes water infiltration.
- Aesthetic design with high-visibility red color → Added safety for open water swimming.
• Inside the lower panel of the zipper:
- Area for personalizing the suit with your name.
- Small pocket for storing a vehicle key.
