Hi Richard! This is a perfect tutorial video! Thank you so much for making it. Drysuits are the number one thing we sell for nearly half the year, and many customers can’t meet in person to get their measurements taken due to location across the country. Sometimes it can be very difficult trying to explain the process over the phone, so a video like this is brilliant! Now we just might need to make a Japanese version. 😂👍🏻
Very timely as I was just wondering how to do this properly! Can you provide some insight into how much slack you add to the suit if you choose the bulky undergarment option? Do you have pictures of what the suit looks like with and without the a 400gsm undergarment?
Adrian We add 4cm to the chest, waist, seat and body cord. 3cm to thigh and calf, and 2cm to the bicep. Sorry we do not have any pictures as here in the UK we do not generally wear 400gsm suits, we would wear a Seaskin shorty over a 250gsm plus base layers for the colder months. A 400gsm cut suit will always be "baggy" and not really recommended if you do most of your diving in "normal" weight undersuits.
Hi Richard, I have contacted you weeks ago, because I have issues regarding my boots on my dry suit. Unfortunately after your first response, I haven't heard anything from you. I just tested my suit again and confirmed that there is a leak in my right boot. In my email you can see the exact spot of the leak. It would be great if you could tell me how to proceed since the suit is still under warranty. Regards Sascha
