610 g
Low weight is key in swimrun and our main topic when it comes to product development. DUTY™ is designed to last through the toughest adventures and still keep the a low weight, a good buoyancy and warming effect. You will find the suit much lighter compared to other models, a key factor to achieve maximum comfort and freedom when moving. The weight is 610 g (men’s size M).
Material combination
Yamamoto LIMESTONE neoprene
The suit is made of thinnest double-lined neoprene for maximum flexibility and high durability. The combination of premium neoprene with UltraFlex inner liner makes the suit extremely soft and flexible.
Running+
DUTY™ is designed with pro-running properties. The thin and flexible neoprene in the legs gives you the freedom needed when running, equivalent to running in short running tights.
Anti-leak construction
ARK’s signature anti-leak cut minimizes water to enter and allows you to keep dry. This means we can use thinner neoprene and still keep the same warming properties as if using thicker (and heavier) neoprene.
Neck cut
Neck and collar part is designed to seal when swimming. The shape is constructed to snug even when moving around a lot in the water.
Arm cuffs
Arm ends are equipped with a unique cuff construction. The 0.5 mm cuff will close tightly around the upper arm with a smooth and compact fit.
Separate arm-sleeves
DUTY™ is designed with separate arm-sleeves which makes it easy to customize depending on climate without compromising on the fit. The sleeves are made of 1 mm double-lined neoprene.
