BUILD: GLUED + DURASOFT NYLON TAPE

TEMP RANGE: 57 – 63F / 13 – 17C

All surf missions should be taken seriously and when you need to operate in stealth, look no further. The Tactical was originally designed for Seal Team 6 for low thermal registration aka now you see me, now you don't. This all-black suit ultimately caught the eye of surfers looking for an understated wetsuit. The Tactical back zip epitomizes Matuse’s art + function philosophy aka build the best possible products, and design them to look good, even if you can’t see it coming.

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