ATTICA 2mm NEOPRENE WETSUIT SHORTS 2011/12 SUMMER RANGE

ATTICA WETSUITS

Attica focuses on comfort, combined with warmth and durability. We’ve been testing the suits for the past two and a half years with several-high profile riders and believe that we’ve got it right.

In the early ’70s there was a big riot in the Attica Correctional Facility and we kept hearing the term “Attica” in various films and TV shows and we liked the vibe. Our vision is the dominant, “alpha-dog” mentality, the dark edge combined with bold logos, solid colours, epic cuts and quality materials; this is what’ll set us apart and strengthen our product.

We’ve only recently started to focus on our team as our attention has mainly been on readying our product. We’d assumed that Lackey was already with another company, so we just chatted to him about the product without any pressure, and as we talked he got more excited to get involved. It’s a great feeling to have a rider of his calibre wanting to be involved in the company.

Remember, purchasing wetsuits should never be about price. As a rider you should try and know what you’re looking for in a suit and then try on every suit that has those attributes until you find the best fit for you. That’s how you’ll find a suit you’re truly happy with.

“I’m currently wearing the Omega long-armed spring suit as the water hasn’t gotten too cold on the Gold Coast yet. I’m really enjoying the new suits; they do the job of keeping me warm and the materials and pattern of the suit make for a very comfortable suit too. The best feature of my new Attica wetsuit would be the stretchiness of the materials; the suit isn’t restrictive at all, in fact it just feels like an extension of myself. Plus the suits come in a couple of great colourways. I’ve only been wearing Attica wetsuits a short time, but I’ve been involved in the development of them for a while now and I can tell you that these suits have always looked amazing which is why I chose to get involved.” – Lackey.
