Fourth Element Neoprene Vest with Integrated Hood – Stay Warm. Dive Longer.

✔ 3mm torso | ✔ 5mm hood with Smoothskin face seal | ✔ Fits under any wetsuit

Add an extra layer of warmth exactly where you need it — on your core and head. This minimalist neoprene vest fits comfortably under any wetsuit. The 3mm body provides flexible insulation, while the 5mm hood with Smoothskin seal keeps cold water out and body heat in. Tiny hood perforations allow air to vent with minimal water entry. Perfect for colder dives or longer sessions.

This vest is engineered for divers who need enhanced thermal protection without the bulk of a full extra wetsuit. The torso is made from 3mm neoprene, offering a snug yet flexible fit that traps warmth in the body’s core while maintaining freedom of movement.

The integrated 5mm hood provides critical insulation at the head, a significant heat loss point, and features a Smoothskin face seal that minimizes cold water flushing. Strategically placed micro-perforations in the hood allow trapped air to escape from the top of the head, reducing buoyancy issues and hood lift, without letting cold water in.

The vest’s minimal design ensures it layers cleanly under most standard wetsuits, especially 5mm full suits. It's an ideal solution for divers in cooler waters who want to extend bottom times or reduce post-dive chill.

About Fourth Element

high quality performance

"Fourth Element is dedicated to making the best gear for your underwater adventures, from award winning drysuits and wetsuits to swimwear and rashguards made from recycled ghost fishing nets. We develop our products to perform in the world’s most extreme environments and we are working to minimise their impact on our planet and its oceans."

Informations

Recycled Nylon

One of the key ingredients of neoprene, Eco Carbon Black, is recycled by our wetsuit factory from post-consumer scrap tyres. This significantly reduces energy consumption and cuts CO2 emissions by 200g per wetsuit.
Resources

Utilising a unique fabric made using ECONYL® recycled Nylon from ghost fishing nets, laminated with a waterproof membrane and thermal fleece, Thermocline revolutionises
the notion that being environmentally responsible means sacrificing performance or aesthetics.
UPF 50+ fabric

Active Fit

Our UPF 50+ fabric is a blend of recycled nylon and xtra life™ LYCRA® which gives generous stretch and also offers extended protection against chlorine and salt.
Econyl

This swimwear is made of ECONYL® 100% regenerated nylon, a significant percentage of which comes from fishing nets recovered from the sea.
Sustainable Packaging

Single-use plastic packaging just isn’t OK anymore. It pollutes our water ways, suffocating marine life and breaking down into micro plastics which enter our food chain. We still aren’t perfect but we’re improving and working hard to become single-use plastic free.
Limestone neoprene

During the neoprene production process, limestone is used to replace petrochemicals to form rubber chips. You achieve the same performance as traditional neoprene, but with way less environmental impact
Recycled Rubber

One of the key ingredients of neoprene, Eco Carbon Black, is recycled by our wetsuit factory from post-consumer scrap tyres. This significantly reduces energy consumption and cuts CO2 emissions by 200g per wetsuit.

No More Microplastics

Water soluble | Recyclable | Compostable
Biodegradable | Non-toxic | Marine-safe
Zero waste

Our No More Microplastics packaging is 100% water soluble, recyclable, compostable and biodegradable – eliminating the problems that plastic usually causes when we attempt to dispose of it.

A Better Neoprene

Limestone Neoprene | Recycled Rubber | Dope-Dyed Yarn (exclusive products)

After the neoprene creation process, the redundant trimmed materials will be recycled and reused in the mixing process to produce more neoprene sheets. Overall huge amounts of raw materials are saved, energy consumption is reduced and waste water and air emissions are minimised during production.

Recycled materials

The recycled dive fin. It is the unique combination of materials which makes this fin special. The plastic is made from 100% reclaimed post-consumer waste polypropylene and the rubber is made with recycled TPR. By using materials in this way, we are preventing plastic being sent to landfill or ending up as waste in the ocean as part of fourth element’s mission to become OceanPositive.
