An open cell two piece wetsuit is the professional diver's choice. Pursuit open cell, two piece; jacket with waist high pants wetsuits are made with very soft very flexible neoprene. The outside of the suit is lined with Lycra to protect the neoprene from cuts and nicks resulting from contact with the reef or boat. The inside is open cell for best contact between the suit and skin, completely eliminating water circulation inside the suit. These wetsuits are so comfortable you'll forget you're wearing one.

Open cell means that the surface is smooth neoprene without any lining attached. Open cell clings to skin with a sort of suction and effectively prevents any water circulation inside the suit, making open cell suits much warmer than lined suits of the same thickness. Open cell means that the suit needs to be lubed before putting it on. This can be done using only water or a mixture of water and a small amount of hair conditioner in a spray bottle. Once lubed the suit is very easy to get into and take off, easier than lined suits.

Sizing Chart 3mm Wetsuits

Pursuit wetsuits are very flexible and there is some overlap between sizes. If you find you're at both weight and height extremes for a particular size, you may require the next size up. More so with the thicker suits, 5mm and 7mm.

We will be happy to exchange a suit for another size if you feel the fit is not right, provided the suit is returned in original condition. Please be careful donning the suit as open cell is sensitive to cuts with long fingernails etc. The outer Lycra jersey is as durable as any lined suit.

Reviews

Got my new suit today. I am extremely happy!

The suit is well constructed and has one of the better glue-up jobs I have seen on a suit. I was a bit concerned that the suit was going to be too small when I pulled it out of the box, but Dan assured me that the material was very soft and flexible. That was an understatement.

The cut is VERY nice. I have had an extremely difficult time in the past finding a production suit that fits me well. This is the one of the best fitting suits I have tried on in. Of course the attibutes are to the neoprene that is used. Definitely one of the softest and more flexible neoprenes I have tried. That can be a double edged sword though; usually these tend to compress quickly and lose their thermal properties within a year of HARD use. I have paid much more for suits that weren't as well constructed as this. I look forward to putting the suit to use.

Thanks Dan, for providing quality gear at an affordable price.

I freedivespearfish in Miami waters (68F and up)
I use a Pursuit ocean blue camo 3mm 2 piece suit.

I have used my Pursuit suit for 47 days spearing from a kayak for a total of 232 hours and my Pursuit suit looks and works like new

Not the first seam has come apart.
Not the first thread has broken
My Pursuit suit is the best spearing suit I have ever owned in 35 years of spearing
I prefer the blue camo suit because I float on the surface and then drop down onto a fish. If I layed on the bottom and looked for fish I would buy the brown camo. But for the quality and great price I would buy both.
I am 5' 10" tall and 175lbs and my XL Pursuit is a little loose on me (thats exactly the way I like it).
I could go on and on about how good the Pursuit wetsuit is.

I just got mine a couple a few days ago.

Its a 3 mm Green camo. The attention to detail is equal to none other wetsuit I've owned. The loading pad is in the right place and is big enough to accommodate guns with loading butts or without. I guess I am part of the lucky bunch that don't have problems with off the shelf wetsuits and sizing so this one fits like a glove. The neoprene feels really good, super soft and elastic almost like wearing a chickle wetsuit. I am sure the knee and elbow pads will come really handy. I am very happy with the purchase.

Excellent suit.

I am very happy with it. Next best investment next to Pursuit 90 carbon fins. Its feels like no other suit I have used, it feels like not wearing anything at all while still keeping me warm in 68 degree water.
