HUUB ARCH.3

£549.99 Huub’s Archimedes 3 has been further refined using their new +43 foam (that claims to be 43% more buoyant than neoprene), which is used with Yamamoto neoprene in the stretch and reach zones, while the trademark red bicep fabric now extends 360° around the arm. The suit feels more flexible compared to their Albacore and more buoyant than the other suits here. With the Archimedes 3, there’s a choice of 3:5 or 4:4 buoyancy ratios; 4:4 tends to be the pros’ choice, and for those with a good kick technique and body position. We don’t think the shoulder flexibility is the best here but, for high buoyancy and stretch, the 3:5 is recommended. huubdesign.com
