Ladies BCDs

There is nothing better than well-fitting diving equipment. It had been prevalent for ladies to dive with unisex BCD that did the job but did not fit exactly well. These days are now gone. Mike's Dive Store is delighted to present ladies BCD collection from the best manufacturers like Scubapro, Aqua Lung, Mares and Cressi. This gender-specific equipment will fit your anatomy correctly and make your scuba diving experience even better. 

So what is the difference between unisex BCDs and ladies specific BCDs? First of all, the height of BCD. Women tend to have a slightly shorter upper body; therefore, ladies BCDs will have a shorter backplate which allows better weight distribution and cylinder support.  Secondly, the placement of straps and fastenings of so-called unisex BCD only really fitted men's anatomy. Ladies BCD had its design updated with chest and waist straps moved higher for a better, more natural and comfortable fit. These are little things, yes, but little thing make sometimes huge difference.
