Product Description
The O’Neill Reactor 2 1.5mm Long Sleeve Wetsuit Top is a versatile, lightweight layer designed for warm-water sessions and cooler summer days. Whether you’re surfing, paddleboarding, swimming, dipping, jet skiing or enjoying any classic watersport, this neoprene top gives you that extra bit of warmth and wind protection without the bulk of a full wetsuit.

Made from UltraFlex neoprene, it offers excellent stretch and comfort, allowing full freedom of movement through the shoulders and arms. The 1.5mm thickness is ideal when the water’s not cold but you still want insulation, and it also provides a bit of padding across the chest and ribs — particularly useful if you’re doing a lot of paddling or spending long sessions surfing.

The over-the-head design keeps things simple and streamlined, while the full-length sleeves add coverage from sun, wind and light chill. Wear it on its own in summer conditions or layer it under a wetsuit for added warmth when needed.
