The Honest Truth

I’m loving this version of the J2 baselayer. These shorts fit snug, keep me comfortable on long dives, and I love the anti-microbial feature… I spend A LOT of time in my undersuit 😉 Combine it with the J2 short sleeve top to make the perfect layering system to suit the water temperature.

NOTES FROM FOURTH ELEMENT ABOUT THEIR J2 SHORTS

The Fourth Element J2 Shorts Base Layers are designed to give prolonged comfort and thermal performance under your drysuit, thanks to the unique OceanPositive recycled fabric.

Keeping your skin dry through a dive is essential for maintaining warmth and preventing irritation. The Fourth Element J2 Shorts excel at wicking away perspiration, creating a dry zone next to your skin for enhanced thermal insulation. The J2 wicking performance also comes into its own when the fabric gets wet. Even in the event of a suit flood, the moisture will be wicked away, and with the right combination of drysuit underwear, will travel further through the fibres of your undersuit, keeping you comfortable and dry.

The Fourth Element J2 Shorts base layer system extends this performance with tried and tested anti-microbial silver ions embedded within the fibres of the fabric. This ensures that you can wear the base layer for long periods of time without risk of irritation, vital for prolonged repetitive dives or expeditions.

Made with GRS Certified Recycled Polyester, and packaged without plastic, the OceanPositive J2 Base Layers are the perfect drysuit base layer to be worn next to the skin, and then layered with your thermal undersuit. The men’s Fourth Element J2 Shorts are designed to wear next to your skin and beneath your drysuit or drysuit thermal layers. Made from recycled polyester, the innovative base layer fabric wicks perspiration away from the skin keeping you dry and giving thermal protection throughout your dive.

The Fourth Element J2 Shorts feel beautifully comfortable beneath your drysuit thanks to the 4-way stretch fabric and are the perfect length for providing protection to the core areas. The wide, soft waistband of the shorts sits flat against the torso for maximum comfort whilst the double-layer front crotch gives added support. The minimal seams provide a smooth feel along the line of the leg, perfect for drysuit dives of any duration, and an essential base layer within your layering system.
