DIVEABLE REPLICA US NAVY STYLE DRESS

FOR U. S. NAVY MK-V HELMETS

Cat No. 26013NR

Call for price quotation

Due to many requests by tourist attractions, collectors, and vintage equipment hobby divers, DESCO is selling a "look alike" or replica US Navy Mark V diving dress that is usable for diving.

The suit material is 1/8" thick neoprene foam sheet with fabric on both sides. The covering of the suit is white Polyester fabric outside and nylon super heavy weave fabric inside. The outside white finish is as near to the look of the old cotton dresses, as it is possible to get with modern long lasting materials. The super heavy weave nylon inside eliminates the stretch, normally associate with neoprene suits, to a minimum, yet allows much more flexibility than the old cotton material. The knee pads, elbow pads and the leg lace attachments are made of polyester Cordura ™ to insure long life. They are sized and placed on the dress to original U S Navy specifications.

The breast plate gasket is vulcanized black natural rubber, molded as specified for the original dresses.

Wrist seals are Black Neoprene.

The old stiff, heavy reinforced feet are replaced with a foot that still looks authentic except for a sole on the bottom of the foot. The standard size is men's # 13, but smaller sizes can be special ordered at no extra cost.
