Quiksilver Prologue 2/2 Shorty Backzip 2026 Wetsuit
The Quiksilver Prologue 2/2 Shorty Backzip 2026 Wetsuit is designed for surfers and water sports enthusiasts looking for lightweight warmth, reliable flexibility, and easy entry during warmer conditions. With its short-sleeve and short-leg design, this wetsuit is a practical choice for summer sessions, mild-water surfing, kiteboarding, paddleboarding, and other active water sports.
Built as part of the Quiksilver Prologue range, this wetsuit combines flexible neoprene materials with a comfortable back zip system and durable seam construction. The 2/2mm thickness provides a useful balance between warmth and unrestricted movement, making it ideal when a full winter wetsuit would feel too heavy.
Designed for Warm-Water Performance
A good surfing wetsuit should keep you comfortable without limiting your movement, and the Quiksilver Prologue 2/2 Shorty is made with exactly that purpose in mind. The shorty construction leaves the lower arms and legs free, helping you stay mobile while reducing the amount of neoprene you need to wear.
The suit uses flexible neoprene technology, including limestone-based Freemax Stretch neoprene, to support comfortable movement during paddling and other active sessions. Stretch-focused materials help the wetsuit move naturally with your body instead of feeling overly restrictive.
Whether you are catching summer waves, spending time on a kiteboard, or enjoying a long day around the water, this shorty offers practical protection while maintaining a lightweight feel.

Easy Back Zip Entry
One of the practical benefits of this Men wetsuit is its back zip entry system. A back zip makes the wetsuit straightforward to put on and remove, which is especially useful for beginners or anyone who prefers a simple entry design.
The wider opening created by the back zip can make changing before and after a session easier. Once you’re in the water, the flexible construction helps maintain freedom of movement for paddling, turning, and general activity.
Flatlock Seams for Comfort and Durability
The Quiksilver Prologue uses flatlock stitched seams designed to offer a combination of softness, flexibility, and durability. This type of seam construction is particularly suitable for warmer conditions where maximum waterproof sealing is less important than comfort and breathability.
Additional Melco spot tape is used around high-stress areas to provide extra reinforcement where the wetsuit may experience more movement and wear.
Eco-Conscious Materials
Quiksilver has incorporated more environmentally considerate materials into the Prologue construction. The exterior uses Eco Stretch fabric made with recycled polyester and recycled elastane, while the interior features Eco Extend fabric made from recycled nylon.
The wetsuit also uses water-based Aqua Alpha glue for the lamination process. These material choices help reduce reliance on some conventional manufacturing approaches while still delivering the flexibility and durability expected from a modern wetsuit for men.
