Colby + Yamamoto - 2mm Long Arm Spring Chest Zip
Colby + Yamamoto - 2mm Long Arm Spring Chest Zip
Description
Description
The Colby + Yamamoto 2mm Long Arm Spring Chest Zip is designed for cool to mildly warm conditions, typically used in water temps in the mid 60s and up.
Like all Colby + wetsuits, it features Yamamoto #39 in the torso for durability, shape retention and warmth, and Yamamoto #40 in the shoulders and arms for added flexibility and freedom to reduce paddling fatigue. We use a custom-made jersey from the world's premiere jersey provider which has a silky hand feel with amazing stretch and resilience.
The Colby + Yamamoto 2mm Long Arm Spring is features triple-glued and blindstitched (GBS) seams with internal taping in critical areas (those that take the most abuse). GBS stitching combined with internal tape will improve the longevity of the suit and also helps reduce leakage from sew-through, which is quite common on suits that are under 2mm in thickness. It doesn't completely alleviate it, but certainly helps.
The chest zip design is a tried-and-true standard and features an all metal YKK zipper which will outlast the life of the neoprene. It's tough as nails, but not too bulky or heavy.
The dark grey upper body jersey turns nearly black when wet and also indicates where the Yamamoto #40 is used.
Features
Features
FEATURES | PROS / BENEFITS | CONS / TRADE-OFFS |
---|---|---|
Yamamoto Neoprene | Soft and flexible feel. Fantastic warmth and lightweight as well. | More expensive per yard and if not taken care of, will degrade like other neoprene (no faster, but not impervious to mishandling) |
Jersey | Our proprietary jersey lining is the most comfortable and flexible we've ever felt (and surfed in) | Not as bullet proof as cheaper jerseys |
Watertight zip | Reduces leakage through zipper teeth | Water will still get in the wetsuit (slowly), but this is how it’s meant to work. The other tradeoff is it’s a bit more expensive than the non-water-tight zips |
Triple glued + blindstitched construction | No buildup around seams to give you a rash. More mobility in your upper body | More expensive and hand-constructed, so if there’s human error (missing a spot of glue for example), it can sometimes be felt in the form of water seepage/leaking or even failed seams (warranty will cover for 1 year) |

Size Chart
If you have any questions about fit, please hit us up - we'd love to help you get the right size on your first try! Please note, the fit on our clearance inventory is slimmer and slightly longer...And you'll find the clearance suits to be less flexible and a bit tougher to get on and off. The Colby + suits have a more generous opening, are noticeably lighter and more flexible, BUT are slightly shorter in the torso, arms and legs. So, if you're in between sizes, we recommend going with the "taller" size for the Colby + suits.

the suit is nice, feels good, but the legs are weirdly short. im 5-9 140 and ordered a small tall. ive worn a lot of long sleeve springs from many companies, either small tall or medium, this is the only one with noticably short legs ive ever had.
Nice product. Seems smaller than other suits i have purchsed
The wetsuit appears really well-made and I quite like it, but I’m choking every time I put it on because the neck is way too small not sure who designed that but they got there sizing wrong at the end of the day it affects the whole product because I don’t enjoy choking
Colby has put together a well-made springsuit. I wear an XLT. The only thing is because the legs are somewhat too large the suit hikes up, giving you a "wedgie." To prevent this, the legs need to be a little bit narrower. This doesn't happen with Matuse or O'Neill. So, they need to modify the design.
My 4/3 Colby Yama got me through the cold NJ winter. The suit is amazing and neoprene is supple. Easy in, easy out even when you’re late for work! I have found similar premium suits to be too rigid, especially around my shoulders and pits. What I found most important though, I could still manage to have a blast on a shorter board in the cold water due to the weight of this Colby suit.
Yewwwww!
