  • Info
  • The Proteus II is the top-performing dive wetsuit on the market, known for its exceptional warmth. Available in 3mm and 5mm options, it sets the standard for thermal protection in the industry. Crafted from an eco-friendly limestone neoprene with Eco Carbon Black, derived from scrap rubber tires, each wetsuit reduces CO2 emissions by 200g. We've also eliminated harmful chemicals by using water-based Aqua-X glues in the lamination and construction process.

    The wetsuit features a renowned Hydrolock inner neck seal and Glideskin wrist seals, minimizing water ingress. Its seams are double-glued, blind-stitched, and taped, offering superior thermal protection. Additionally, Hexcore linings in the body core enhance warmth, making the Proteus II ideal for extended water exposure.

    The 5mm suit is a highly versatile option, offering an improved fit that makes it easier to don than the classic Proteus, while delivering enhanced thermal performance. Ideal for prolonged dives in water temperatures of 19°C and above, this suit excels in maintaining warmth. For additional protection in colder waters, consider layering with a Thermocline vest and shorts, and pairing it with a 3mm or 5mm hood.

    FEATURES:
    • A more eco-friendly neoprene
    • Waterbased glues
    • Improved fit and thermal performance
    • Hexcore thermal lining on torso
    • Thermoflex thermal lining throughout rest of suit
    • Taped, waterproof seams
    • Hydrolock neck seal system
    • Internal PU ankle seals
    • Glideskin wrist seals
    • Ultra stretch knee pads
