Clark Full Wetsuit – Reef 3/3mm
Clark 3/3mm is built for cooler water and longer sessions. Full sleeves, full-length legs, and a thermal lining through the chest and back panels keep you warm without sacrificing movement. It fits like a second skin and performs across a wide range of water activities.
Made with Yamamoto limestone neoprene, sourced from calcium carbonate, not petroleum. Softer, lighter, and more heat-efficient than conventional neoprene. Glued and blind-stitched (GBS) seams reduce water entry and improve warmth retention for extended time in the water. A back-zip entry makes it easy to get in and out before and after sessions.

Warmth & conditions:
A 3mm wetsuit is ideal for water temperatures between 58–66°F (14–19°C). This covers cooler coastal conditions, California winter, Pacific Northwest, southern Australia, southern Europe.
Need less warmth? → Clark 2/2mm (64–72°F / 18–22°C). Need more warmth? → Clark 4/3mm (50–58°F / 10–14°C) · Clark 5/4mm (below 50°F / below 10°C)
The Clark fullsuit range is designed to offer progressive warmth and protection, allowing you to select the right level of insulation for your water temperature, activity, and session length.
Choosing your size
Clark fullsuits are designed to fit snugly for warmth and performance.
- Choose your usual wetsuit size
- 2/2mm: very stretchy — a close fit is recommended
- 3/3mm, 4/3mm & 5/4mm: slightly firmer — if between sizes, consider sizing up
- A snug feel when dry is normal and softens once wet
Choosing your thickness
Clark is available in 2/2mm, 3/3mm, 4/3mm, and 5/4mm, offering progressive warmth.
- 2/2mm → mild water, warmer sessions
- 3/3mm → 58–66°F (14–19°C) cooler water, everyday use, thermal lining on body panels
- 4/3mm → cold water, winter surf
- 5/4mm → very cold water, long winter sessions
Choose lighter thicknesses for flexibility, thicker options for maximum warmth.

If you’re unsure about size or thickness, our team is happy to help.
Which thickness is the Clark 3/3mm for?
The Clark 3/3mm is designed for water temperatures between 58–66°F (14–19°C). It provides balanced warmth with good flexibility, making it a versatile everyday suit for cooler coastal conditions and regular surf sessions.
What is Yamamoto neoprene?
Yamamoto neoprene is made from calcium carbonate derived from limestone, not petroleum. It is softer, lighter, and more flexible than conventional neoprene, and has a lower environmental impact. Abysse uses Yamamoto #39 limestone neoprene across the Clark range.
What is ECOPRENE?
ECOPRENE is Abysse's proprietary material system combining Yamamoto limestone neoprene with recycled bottle linings. It is designed as a lower-impact alternative to petroleum-based wetsuits without compromising warmth or flexibility.
Does the 3/3mm Clark have thermal lining?
Yes. The Clark 3/3mm features a thermal internal lining through key body panels to help retain warmth during cooler water sessions. This is one of the key differences from the 2/2mm, which uses a standard recycled lining.
What seams does the 3/3mm use?
The Clark 3/3mm uses glued and blind-stitched (GBS) seams. GBS seams create a more watertight seal than flatlock stitching, reducing water entry and improving warmth retention during longer sessions in cooler water.
Does Clark feel restrictive in thicker versions?
Clark is designed to maintain comfort and mobility across all thicknesses. High-movement areas, shoulders and arms, remain flexible even in the 5/4mm.
How do I care for my Clark wetsuit?
Rinse with fresh water after every session. Dry away from direct sunlight. Close the Velcro tabs before storing to protect the lining and seams.
Is Clark suitable for activities other than surfing?
Yes, Clark is designed for surfing, SUP, kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, foiling, open-water swimming, snorkelling, and scuba diving.
The Clark wetsuit is built with ECOPRENE, Abysse's material system combining premium Japanese neoprene with recycled fabrics.
