Men's Essentials Rear-zip Surf Top

Built from Experience. Refined in Every Detail. The Men's Essentials Rear-Zip Surf Top takes everything we’ve learned from developing the Essentials Pro Series wetsuit and distills it into a lightweight performance layer built for cooler mornings, windy crossings, and long sessions in changing conditions. Version 2.0 features a completely redesigned anatomical pattern that improves shoulder mobility, eliminates traditional armpit seams to reduce chafing, and moves more naturally through every paddle stroke. We upgraded the thermal interior with plush Magma Plush™ lining across the core, refined the fit from top to bottom, and reinforced critical construction details for greater durability in demanding conditions. Every feature has a purpose. From the low-profile rear zip entry and Smoothskin neck seal to the silicone wrist grips and structural board short attachment loop, this is a surf top built to disappear while you focus on the water.

The result is a lightweight performance layer that delivers warmth where you need it, unrestricted mobility where you demand it, and the reliability to handle everything from dawn patrol surf sessions to military and expedition water operations.
