The Arctic's two layers of high insulation and low bulk fabric ensure exceptional levels of thermal protection, now with 80% Recycled Polyester in the outer and 100% Recycled Polyester in the internal layer. Constructed with comfort and utility in mind, the minimalist design provides outstanding performance under drysuits. In a layering system, the Arctic is suited for use underneath neoprene, membrane and tri-laminate suits. Using a combination of fast wicking, high insulation fabrics, the Arctic creates a micro-climate around the diver, keeping the body dry and warm. A high density inner fleece provides superior insulation, with maximum comfort and wicking, whilst the outer layer, which has a resin coating for enhanced durability, ensures a snug fit. The Arctic requires less loft to perform due to more effective management of air which is held in the fibres of the suit. Instead of maximising the thickness of the layer of air near the skin, the Arctic minimises the movement of air within, reducing the rate of cooling without any risk of trapping the air and preventing its release from the dump valve. The Arctic retains a significant degree of its thermal performance when wet, such that wearers have found it possible to complete dives in relative comfort after even the most fundamental drysuit failures. In some cases, divers have not noticed a leak in a neck or wrist seal until after the dive, such is the performance of the fourth element Arctic. Backed by years of field testing by the Norwegian Navy, the British Antarctic Survey Dive Team, the French Marines and the Danish Navy, the Arctic was designed using high technology fabrics and has been tested in real diving conditions from the Arctic to the Antarctic. The Arctic drysuit undersuit is complemented by the Arctic socks, which completes the thermal protection system, offering low bulk thermal protection to the extremities. The two layer construction is warm and comfortable, and the inner liner can be pulled out from the outer liner to speed drying times. 0 0 0 0

Beaver Easy Fin Spring Straps Quick Release Medium
Great company, fast email communication, and very quick delivery.
I was looking for a new wetsuit and found these guys online. They had the wetsuit I was after and there was a link to an interactive sizing guide to help me identify the right size. After ordering I received an email checking I had used the chart to make sure I was aware and avoid getting the wrong one. Wetsuit arrived a few days later. Cannot ask for more.
Small order, but never the less a very positive experience. My replacement fins straps were not delivered (Christmas time order) when I chased this with Russell, his email reply was instant and positive. A new order was dispatched and received a few days later. Highly recommended
