  • Note wetsuits have incorrect Geoprene logo, this is Geoflex.

Apollo, the god of music, poetry, art, prophecy, archery and practically everything, was said to inspire Dr. Silverstein naming NASA's Apollo program after seeing an image of the deity riding his chariot across the sun. Much like the grand scale of the space missions and Apollo's many talents, our newest addition to the Matuse wetsuit fleet is also multi-talented and will inspire all surfers alike.

Apollo's mission is to make chest zip experiences great for everyone. Our goal was to design a chest zip that fits more body types and makes the routine of putting on your suit a pleasurable one aka a much easier entry than a moon landing.

The Apollo with Geoflex follows Matuse’s mantra of making products Ichiban (the best) by looking forward, developing materials and construction in the most sustainable ways.

Matuse’s Geoflex Limestone Rubber is made with Eco Carbon Black additive recycled from post-consumer scrap tires in combination with water-based adhesives for fabric lamination, instead of conventional solvent-based glues. This eliminates Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) and maintains bonding strength aka the durability you expect from Matuse.

We skip traditional dyeing processes, opting for dope-dyeing yarn to add color before yarn extrusion to save energy and water. To minimize waste, all of our trimmed edges from cutting wetsuit patterns are reused to produce more Geoflex sheets that make our Matuse products.

The Apollo with Geoflex is fair-trade certified and is the next generation of responsible building that doesn’t sacrifice on the performance you expect.

Hydrasilk: Minimizes water adsorption and maintains your suit’s overall shape memory, adding to its longevity. Hydrasilk is buttery-soft and located inside and outside of your suit, aka you won't want to take it off.  
Oversized Knee Pads: Keep your duck diving knee pressure damage to a minimum with our oversized coverage.
• YKK Vislon Zipper: Large #10V size zipper for ease of closure and prevention of salt corrosion.
• Durasoft Nylon Taping: Taping is applied to the inside seams and is soft to the skin, for extra comfort, durability, and warmth.
• Easy access external key pouch: With elastic cord on side of hip / you don't have to take your suit off to access a key or other items stored while surfing.
Fair-Trade Certified Construction -
• Water based adhesives:  Used for laminating our Hydrasilk Nylon instead of conventional solvent-based glues and minimizes Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s).
• Eco Carbon Black:  A recycled additive from post-consumer scrap tires that improves suit durability.
• Dope-dyeing yarn process:  We add color to our Nylon before yarn extrusion, skipping traditional dying processes to save on energy and water.
• Recycled Trims:  All trim from cutting patterns is reused to create more Geoflex sheets, to build more Matuse suits aka we make no waste.

Matuse for the win!

Hands down the most buttery suit I've ever owned! Alex is an amazing operations manager. He answers all of my questions, and pointed me to the perfect suit for me. Seeing i am short and stalky, 2xl runs long on my limbs. But the Apollo chest zip fits me perfectly in the 2xls. The quality is unparalleled! Inside and out i see no flaws, only perfection! This is such an amazing company I let everyone know this is where you want to invest! My friend got the geoprene and I'm jealous! That's my next suit for sure! This suit and this company is matchless!

Went on sale just after purchase

The suit fits great and came fast.
only issue I have is that I can't wear it to work since its so comfortable.
Also it went on a big sale after I purchased so I missed out on that which kinda stinks.
Other than that I would recommend it.

Sizing is off

Overall, the warmth is really nice, but the fit is not great. It's weird, I have a large in the Dante and it fits perfect but a large in this one does not even though the size guide is exactly the same. It's tight in the shoulder and rubs in my armpits and super loose in the waste. I guess I'll keep it becuase I wore it in the water, but I'm not stoked on the fit—a bummer cause I LOVED the Dante it seems like I can't get another.

Silky smooth and light

I had a Matuse suit over a decade ago and finally decided to treat myself to a new one. Incredible product. Super light, even when wet, ultra flexible, and dries fast. What’s not to love? The best feature, though, is the silky interior which makes putting it on and taking it off really easy. Other brands’ fast-drying suits have a fuzzy interior that is actually pretty cumbersome to slide off. First world problem, yes. But why not treat yourself a little, eh?
