Product Description
The Lizzard Lava wetsuit is built for spearfishing and freediving in real Cape Town conditions.
In our experience, a 5 mm wetsuit is essential for local diving. Water temperatures remain cold most of the year, and thinner suits struggle to keep you comfortable over longer sessions. The Lava suit provides the insulation you need while still allowing full movement.
The Lava design offers a bold, high-contrast look while still working across reef and mixed diving environments. It is a solid all-round option for divers who want performance with a different visual profile.
Performance and Construction
Built with function first:
- High stretch neoprene for unrestricted movement
- Close, ergonomic fit to reduce water flow
- Reinforced chest loading pad
- Optional knee and elbow protection
This wetsuit is made for regular diving, not occasional use.
