New Mares Ice-Fit Neoprene DrySuit

Monday, July 07, 2008

Mares Ice-Fit DrySuit

Here at Dive Pursuits we have just taken delivery of the New Mares Ice-Fit Drysuit, launched earlier this year and only available through a limited number of premium Mares dealers in the UK.

Mares have joined forces with Mobbys, a company with plenty of competence and experience in developing diving equipment, to bring you the Ice-Fit.

Designed as an all rounder drysuit, the Ice-Fit will suit everyone from the novice to the demanding diver, setting new standards in drysuit design as it does so.  The key feature of the Ice-Fit is the extremely elastic, soft and smooth 4mm super-neoprene Dyna Wave material, developed specially for drysuit applications.  Resisting the repetitive stresses of being stretched while putting the drysuit on and compressed during diving, the Ice-Fit will retain it elasticity and its insulating properties through out its life.  A lining of Lycra on the outside ensure a good finish, while an inner lining of Finedex gives a peasant feeling on the skin and make it even easier to get the Ice-Fit on and off.  Neoprene covers over all the latex seals ensure protection and warmth.

The Mares Ice-Fit really is one of the best Neoprene DrySuits we have come across.
