Paragon Wetsuits with Merino �lining absorbs and retains any water entering the suit. The retained water swells in the Merino� lining. In laboratory tests, Merino� held 30% more water than the best synthetic linings. Paragon wetsuits with Merino Lining are significantly warmer than other scuba wetsuits on the market

�

This is because the Merino� fibres absorb moisture, whereas synthetics can't. This creates a water-logged layer of up to 3mm between the neoprene and your skin. Merino� is 'exothermic', which means it releases a significant amount of heat as it absorbs water. This helps you to warm your "water-skin" quicker.

�

The weave of the Merino� lining also helps to reduce the movement of water inside the suit. Because this layer of saturated Merino� is primarily water, it is not affected by depth. So as the neoprene crushes and becomes less effective, your 3mm layer of drenched Merino� retains its thermal insulating properties.

�

�In recent tests by the British Textile Technology Group, Paragon wetsuits with Merino� proved to offer a 35% increase in thermal efficiency, in both dry and saturated conditions, over the best synthetic linings.

Below are a range of�Paragon wetsuits some of which are merino lined and other less expensive scuba wet suits which have conventional lining.
