Waterproof has developed and tested drysuit material together with the producers since 1983 and this is the best lightweight drysuit fabric they have ever developed. It is sewn together with a single stitch and soft rubber taped seams which ensures a very flexible and comfortable suit.
Waterproof D3 Ergo Single-Stitch Drysuit
It is sewn together with a single stitch and soft rubber taped seams which ensures a very flexible and comfortable suit. Soft, flexible Neoprene boots and plastic zipper keeps the weight down. The whole suite including valves, boots, seals, and suspenders weighs only 4.1 kg (Men’s medium).
The D3 Ergo originates from the Expedition Drysuit EX2 which has its roots in special forces military suits where lightweight, flexibility and movability are essential. After the EX2 had been on the market for a while Waterproof realized that it was being used in very different environments. Both Tech divers and Polar Diver Guides loved it. The suit was much more versatile than anyone could imagine. Therefore, it was decided to make a new suit with the same characteristics but with a strong tri-lam fabric instead of the EX2 breathable membrane. Including exchangeable silicone seals. So if you love movability, flexibility, a snug fit, low weight but still a durable suit – this is the one for you.
Since the D3 derives from a military suit, it is designed for unrestricted movability and control, both above and below the surface. Therefore it has a slimmer cut around the torso and legs for less drag and unnecessary air movement which enhances control. The D3 still has a bit more space around the shoulders to improve the movability in this area. With the placement of the dry zipper and the very soft tri-lam fabric, there are literally no restrictions in movement.
