NeilPryde Sailing is proud to announce the arrival of the brand new 2019 edition of the women's Elite Firewire 3mm wetsuit, the latest addition to our cold water sailing technical range.

The new star of NeilPryde Sailing's clothing portfolio is available as a long john and top combo and constructed from revolutionary technology unique to NeilPryde Sailing. The women's version, which is shaped for the ultimate comfort and movement, will be available in a black/purple colourway for 2019.

The 3mm neoprene construction offers warmth alongside movement and, according to Neil Pryde's top Team Rider sailors, more durable than comparable brands.

The apex ultra-stretch limestone based neoprene is not only super flexible, it is constructed from a honeycomb matrix 3D core of 'Airdome' chambers which improves heat retention whilst minimising bulk and weight. Paired with a fast drying thermal lining it's extra comfortable and saves weight. Both the long john and top give amazing high performance technical protection and are reinforced in the areas that matter including the seat.

NeilPryde is an iconic brand name amongst sailors, kite surfers and windsurfers. Andrew Richards of Neil Pryde Sailing comments "We are very proud of the latest edition of our NeilPryde Sailing Elite Firewire which is the result of extensive research and development incorporating design input from respected designers and athletes alike." He adds "We are especially proud to be leading the way with women-specific technical clothing as we recognise the increasing gender balance in our sport."

The Elite pair is available in men's and junior sizes too and can be teamed up with spray tops, buoyancy aids and harnesses which form the wider offering within the Elite range.

NeilPryde Sailing is a UK company which has developed from the iconic Neil Pryde brand, long the favourite of windsurfers, and has used decades of experience to develop some of the best active sailing clothing available. NeilPryde Sailing is part of Alliance Marine Group. The Neil Pryde Sailing range is available in outlets across the UK or from our online shop at www.neilprydesailing.com retail price £184.00 inc VAT.
