Originally developed for the U.S. military, Primaloft is a down-like insulation
that imitates the lightweight compressibility and warmth of down, but continues
to insulate even when wet.
The Dive Rite Primaloft Undergarment is constructed
of a nylon outer shell, Primaloft insulation, and a Hydrofil inner layer.
Because individual fibers are water repellent,
Primaloft retains 80% of its
ability to keep divers warm, even if the undergarment is soaking wet. Incredibly
soft and supple, Primaloft allows for unrestricted movement and is comfortable
for extended wear. Weighing less than Thinsulate Insulation and other
compressible garments, our Primaloft Jumpsuit has a lower loft, which means
divers are not required to carry as much weight in order to achieve neutral
buoyancy. The highly compressible insulation inside the water repellent nylon
shell allows air to be dumped quickly to cool down or regulate buoyancy.
The
Hydrofil inner layer wicks moisture away from the diver to minimize cooling from
moisture. Durable, reinforced elbows reduce wear and tear and a convenient
zipper pocket on the chest carries small items, such as a car key. Our Primaloft Jumpsuit
is ideal for cold to extreme-cold water diving. Available in size S-XXL. Made in
the U.S.A.
