      Description

      Wanting drysuit pockets while diving in a wetsuit is a specific problem, and these are the specific answer. The pockets are built to the same pattern as the Argonaut drysuit pockets rather than sewn on as an afterthought: each thigh pocket is Cordura, carrying a wetnotes sleeve, bungee retention loops and a mesh panel in the base so it drains instead of acting as a bucket on the ascent. Seat and crotch are reinforced with Supratex made from recycled polyester. The wide waistband runs a low-profile buckle on webbing so it sits under a harness, and the inside of the band is lined with anti-slip mesh skin to stop the shorts riding down. A diver can then carry an SMB, a spool, a torch and wetnotes without hanging any of it off a D-ring, staying streamlined and out of the silt. Sizing spans X Small through 3X Large in black. They pull on over a wetsuit or a Thermocline suit and sit under a BCD or a harness. It suits a wetsuit diver who wants drysuit pockets.

      Features

      • Cordura thigh pockets on the Argonaut drysuit pattern
      • Wetnotes sleeve and bungee retention loops in each pocket
      • Mesh drainage panel in the pocket base
      • Supratex seat and crotch reinforcement in recycled polyester
      • Wide waistband with a low-profile buckle
      • Anti-slip mesh lining inside the waistband
      • Seven sizes, X Small to 3X Large, in black
      • Worn over a wetsuit or Thermocline suit
      • No published weight
