SOPHIA 2MM (glued blind stitched)

WHY WE CALL IT THE SOPHIA: Not to be confused with the Japanese band, the Sophia Jacket is the first piece of Premium (the ichiban) Game designed specifically for

women. The word Sophia is Greek for "wisdom, knowledge or skill." And its etymology traces to spiritual or inspirational forces. So basically this jacket is the Geoprene thinking cap you can now wear in the water.

Geoprene is derived from 99.7% pure limestone. It is warmer (98% water impermeable) and lasts longer (titanium coated) than standard neoprene.It is also kinder to mother nature since it does not come from petroleum. Geoprene is exclusive to Yamamoto Corporation and Matuse, Inc.

SOLUTION SPECIFIC FEATURES

1. HOUR GLASS CHEST PANEL

The hour glass chest panel not only provides a naturallycontoured fit on the bodice but also adds an extra bit of curvy flow to your already stylish lines on the waves.

2. HYDRASILK^TM NYLON

Silky smooth, hydrophobic (i.e. rejects H20) material that's your windbreaker in the water. Makes you feel buttery inside.

3. GEOPRENE STRATEGIC PANELING

Super-low modulus, max-flex Geoprene that keeps the body's thermostatic line balanced (i.e. you don't get hot and tired from fighting your suit or cold and bitter from that oil-based neoprene).

4. MINI BACK-ZIP

The mini back-zip maximizes your ease-of-entry while minimizing water-entry.
