Product Information
The Akona AQ-TEC Men's Pants in black are three-layer thermal bottoms built for divers and multi-sport water users who want wetsuit-derived warmth in a lightweight, flexible garment. They combine a Super Stretch Multidirectional Nylon outer, a windproof Microporous TPU film middle layer and an Elastic Polyester 4-Way Stretch Fleece inner, and they come in seven sizes from XS to 3XL.
Who it is for
These pants suit divers, snorkelers and anyone moving between water and boat deck who wants core warmth in a lightweight garment. Because AQ-TEC is a multi-piece system, the pants can be worn as a stand-alone garment or combined with other AQ-TEC pieces. The breathable middle layer means they stay comfortable while you are out of the water between dives or activities.
Key details
- Outer layer (SSMN): Super Stretch Multidirectional Nylon for unrestricted movement, with durability against daily use, abrasion and UV light, plus water resistance so the garment does not gain water weight.
- Middle layer (MTPU): Microporous TPU film that is breathable, windproof to prevent wind chill and water resistant.
- Inner layer (EPSF): Elastic Polyester 4-Way Stretch Fleece with a lofted fiber structure that creates thermal warmth, regulates core temperature and stays soft and non-chafing.
- Color: Black.
Compatibility and sizing
Sizes run XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL, with part numbers AQMP150-XS through AQMP150-3XL. The pants are designed to combine with other AQ-TEC pieces; related items in the line include the Women's Pants, Women's Full Suit and Unisex Hood.

- SSMN outer layer uses Super Stretch Multidirectional Nylon for unlimited natural freedom of movement in any activity.
- Durable nylon fibers offer significant durability over standard neoprene against daily use, abrasion and UV light.
- Water-resistant outer face keeps water from adding weight to the garment.
- MTPU middle layer is a Microporous TPU film that is breathable, wicking moisture and air away from the skin while you are out of the water.
- Windproof middle layer prevents wind chill on the surface, boat deck or shore.
- EPSF inner layer is an Elastic Polyester 4-Way Stretch Fleece with a lofted fiber structure that creates thermal warmth and regulates core temperature.
- Non-chafing comfort from a fleece interior that is highly water-resistant, durable and soft to the touch.
- Stand-alone or layered wear, usable on their own or combined with other AQ-TEC pieces for multiple combination possibilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes do the Akona AQ-TEC Men's Pants come in?
They are offered in seven sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL. The matching part numbers run AQMP150-XS, AQMP150-SM, AQMP150-MD, AQMP150-LG, AQMP150-XL, AQMP150-2XL and AQMP150-3XL. If you are between sizes or plan to layer them under or over other AQ-TEC pieces, call 888-701-4017 and we will help you pick.
Can the AQ-TEC Men's Pants be worn on their own or do they need another layer?
They work both ways. Akona designed AQ-TEC as a lightweight, multi-piece system, so the pants can be worn as a stand-alone garment or combined with other AQ-TEC pieces for multiple combination possibilities. Other products in the AQ-TEC line include the AQ-TEC Women's Pants, the AQ-TEC Women's Full Suit and the Unisex AQ-TEC Hood.
Are these neoprene wetsuit pants?
No. The AQ-TEC Men's Pants use a three-layer fabric system rather than standard neoprene: a Super Stretch Multidirectional Nylon outer, a Microporous TPU film middle layer and an Elastic Polyester 4-Way Stretch Fleece inner. Akona states the nylon fibers offer significant durability over standard neoprene against daily use, abrasion and UV light, while the fleece inner creates thermal warmth.
Are they comfortable to wear out of the water between dives?
Yes. The Microporous TPU film middle layer is breathable, so moisture and air wick away from your skin while you are out of the water, and it is windproof to prevent wind chill on a boat deck or shore. All three layers are water resistant, which keeps the garment from gaining weight from absorbed water.
