Our New Yulex Wetsuit - The Story Of Solu

At Nyord, we have always believed that everyone should have access to the best gear, without compromising on sustainability or price. That's why we're so excited to introduce the Solu – our brand new wetsuit range made with Yulex natural rubber.

Why Solu?

We created Solu because we wanted to offer a solution. For too long, natural rubber wetsuits have come at a price point that makes them out of reach for many surfers. At Nyord, we believe sustainability should be accessible, so Solu was born from a simple desire: create an eco-friendly wetsuit that doesn't cost the earth, in every sense.

How We Did It

Working alongside the genius minds at Yulex, we developed a wetsuit that uses their premium natural rubber, known for its flexibility, durability, and low environmental impact. Every design choice for Solu was intentional – from the panels to the lining – focusing on what a surfer actually needs, and cutting out anything unnecessary.

Tested by Surfers, Perfected for You

Over the last year, Solu has been rigorously tested in all conditions by our team. From icy winter sessions in the hooded 6/5/4mm to mellow summer surfs in the 2/2 shorty and long Jane, every suit has been refined to ensure warmth, comfort, flexibility, and longevity.

The Solu uses the latest, Yulex 2.0 natural rubber. Yulex 2.0 is a higher performing material that gives our wetsuits world leading performance and sustainability. We are leaping forward in performance, durability and sustainability with this one big step.

The Full Solu Range

  • Hooded 6/5/4mm – ultimate winter warmth
  • 5/4mm – for cold water sessions
  • 4/3mm – your go-to for cooler days, in mens and womens
  • 3/2mm – classic summer flexibility
  • 2/2 shorty – for warm water and total freedom

Solu isn't just a wetsuit – it's a solution. A solution to neoprene dependency, to unsustainable options, and to price barriers. We're proud to bring you a wetsuit that is an amazing alternative to neoprene that has zero compromise on performance, comfort or durability.
