Aldminowicz Waldemar Scubal Legnica 3 °- 6 °C 30 min NAVY Liner Trilaminat
Kallweit
(without additional underwear or lining)
-It exceeded my wildest expectations. Tested in hard conditions with wet suit, means it was totally poured with water during previous dive. Very good thermal performance. Very elastic fabric makes it easy to take on and off the clothes. The liner is imperceptible and very light, doesn’t  hamper moves.
Rzewuski Wojciech Exsteram Wrocław 3 °- 6 °C 34 min NAVY Liner Trilaminat
Eques
(without additional underwear or lining)
– Keeps warmth from beginning till end.
– Despite small leaks on the neck it keeps warm
– In my subjective opinion I can compare it with thickest EQUES
– endless flexibility
– doesn’t  hamper moves at all
– light and thin what makes it possible to take less ballast
Grzyb Tomasz Shop4divers.eu Warszawa 7oC 3 dives, each ca. 40 min long Navy Liner and socks NAVY + Pro gloves Trilaminat
Seawolf Lite
Exercise diving, mainly platform, not so much movement. Gloves suffused with water, but not cold after coming out, comfortable. Great socks! When I looked at it I thought I would need to add some weight – no need 🙂 Great solution with the extra long zipper. The best set of clothing I have ever dived so far.
Sasin Andrzej Warszawa 7oC 9 dives, each ca. 40 min long (3 dives per day, air temp. 12 -13 oC) Navy Liner and socks NAVY Trilaminat
Aquata Pacyfik
Exercise diving, not much movement (quick loss of heat), fantastic liner didn’t let me get cold. Great socks, very warm. Just after suffusing I started feeling cold, changing to neoprene socks helped.

 

At first glance the liner seems thick, hampering moves and forcing to add ballast. After it taking on it turns out to be light, doesn’t hamper moves and what’s more  important it’s nice and warm. Long zipper is a big advantage in a toilet J

Santi Espace + merino underwear
I’m a chilly person, I’m cold in a wet suit when others swim just in a t-shirt. For first 20 min I was warm. During next identical diving in Santi BZ 400 I had same feelings concerning thermal performance. Lots of ease in motion. I needed 2 kg less ballast than when using Santi BZ 400.

No negative feelings regarding coldness. Comparing to previous liner this one is much warmer. Very elastic, gives unique comfort of motion in my suit. When I was putting it on I thought: Why to spend 800 zł if I have a liner? After diving I know with no doubts that it’s worth buying.

Płetwal Poznań 7 30 Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment SB Bare suit + thin underwear Warm feel to a temperature of 11 – 12 degrees Celsius. Below that the lower part of the body ramains without change, upper body with slight feeling of cold but additional layer of underwear would be sufficient. Good at pulling the perspitarion away from the body. Does not restrict movements, great airflow.

Adam
Kozakiewicz
BCN Seaweve Elbląg 15 50 Overall Eques cordura membrane suit + very thin TA underwear Great thermal comfort during calm, less dynamic swimming, also due to  the fact that prior to the dive I did not get sweaty in the sun, as it often occurs in classic thicker undersuit. After diving no trace of moisture on the body. Perfect! Excellent comfort during exercises under water thanks to reduced thickness. Putting on, taking off and  even staying on the surface does not create any problems and is extremely comfortable.

CN Banana Divers Białystok 4 56 Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment Elite drysuit + plus BZ200 Santi warmer In the previous setting (regular underwear plus warmer) I kept getting very cold. Aquashell was a hit – very comfortable, maintains the body warmth well. Thanks to it I can stay in the water of a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius for longer. Comfortable and convenient, it allows for an increased amount of movements. Very useful for women while diving in places whith no toilet facilities (crotch zip).

Dive Project Warszawa 4 90 Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment Eques try tech +  Eques warmer  (thick thinsulate warmer but already very compressed after 7 years of intensive use). I used the Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment instead of thermoactive underwear. The effect exceeded my expectations. Despite my old warmer,  I do not freeze under water any more. Ok. I haven’t noticed any disadvantages.

GCN Sea-Fish Bytom 2 40 Underwear Ice Fit neoprene drysuit + thin underwear Previously, under these conditions, my chest was squeezed with the cold. Now, thanks to this thermal insulation, I can withstand the temperature. Despite the fact that the set of Kwark underwear is much thinner than the previously used warmer, it provides much better thermal comfort. During this dive I could have stayed immersed for a few more minutes. Previously I used a thicker warmer which restricted  movements. With this thinner flexible underwear I feel very comfortably.

GCN Sea-Fish Bytom 6 40 Underwear + Polartec 200 Socks Ice Fit neoprene drysuit + thin underwear Before I used underwear, I felt cold after 30 minutes of diving in such conditions. Now it has changed. Very nice warm fluff on the underside.  Although I had a problem with a leaking sleeve, I did not experience much discomfort. An additional advantage is a feminine cut of both the top and leggings, and very comfortable extended back of the top. Thanks to the collar, the neck keeps nicely warm.

CN Adriatic Bydgoszcz 16/4 30/15 Windbloc Gloves and Aquashell Socks Very high thermal comfort: despite high temperature before entering the water, I did not overheat. Underwater – nice and warm. With my previous socks and gloves I used to freeze. Comfortable and flexible socks, smooth outside – easy to put on and comfortable for walking (nothing sticks to them). The gloves are flawless, lie perfectly well.

CN Banana Divers Błaskowizna 4 60 Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment Emotion Santi suit + BZ 200 warmer In cold water, in combination with a traditional thin warmer, it provides thermal comfort with substantially greater freedom of movement than in the case of a thick undersuit. Very comfortable both to put on and to move under water in the dry suit. It looks nice visually. In case of drenching, if you use the set with another thin warmer, it is much faster to dry both elements separately.

CN Banana Divers Błaskowizna 17 65 Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment Emotion Santi suit It allows you to stay under water longer with the students without additional undersuit. Protects the thermal comfort of the body up to 10 meters. Especially useful for basic courses.

 

Very comfortable both to put on and to move under water in the dry suit. It looks nice visually. In case of drenching, if you use the set with another thin warmer, it is much faster to dry both elements separately.

CN Akwalung Płoc 4 55 Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment Bare trilam HD pro dry suit + bare hi-loft warmer Previously, in such setting but with  thin thermoactive underwear, I used to freeze after about 30 minutes. With the Aquashell Drysuite I can stay in water at 4 degrees Celsius well over an hour. Moreover, it wicks the perspiration away from the body very well. Aquashell fits tightly around the body and does not restrict movements. It is a good choice.

CNN KROKODYLE Olsztyn 10 53 Polartec Aquashell Drysuite Undergarment for women Crash Mobys neoprene suit No perspiration prior to entering the water. In the water, combined with the neoprene suit, Aquashell maintains the ideal temperature. Even after full flooding of the suit, the underwear maintained a pleasant temperature. Very comfortable, does not restrict freedom of  movements under water. However, now I would choose the version with two zips rather than the one with single long zip.

Dive Tech Professional Nysa 4 60 Top, leggings, gloves and socks, all made of Polartec Tritech Eques suit + Eques warmer Significantly improves the thermal comfort. Does not retain the moisture. Comfortable underwear, makes it possible to reach the valves. Does not restrict movements. The gas-flow to the pressure relief valve is slower – one can get used to it.

Pulls perspiration away from the body. Hands and feet do not freeze. I would recommend those products to thin people. Stand-up collar keeps the neck warm. Flexible, it does not restrict movements. Well-tailored to fit the body. A good product.

CN Diver24 Poznań 4/16 80 Overall Diving in the summertime –  Eques Crash “Nuno” neoprene suit.     Decompression and wintertime diving –  Eques Crash “Nuno” neoprene suit + Scubapro Climatec warmer + Power Stretch socks Thanks to good thermal insulation and low thickness, the overall  is the ideal solution, suitable for all seasons. In the summer it can be used as the primary layer underneath a neoprene suit. In extreme conditions, acts as the perfect complement to the basic warmer. During decompression dive, even with a partialy flooded suit, the well-tailored underwear has provided optimum thermal comfort. Elasticity of the material ensures high comfort. Freedom of movement of the lower limbs and arms is not restricted. It takes up very little space in the luggage.

Team Italy Moregallo 7 83 Top and Gloves Santi Espace (Laminat) and Santi BZ400 Optimal temperature conditions in the drysuit. My overall in Thinsulate has more than 100 dives and the compression of the material gradually lost its thermal properties. I tried many before but with this one I experience the correct level of warmth and dryness. Excellent freedom of movement making all diving operations comfortable. Sweat was wicked away quickly so you never felt cold. Great breathability making these garments the best solution I tried.

SUNNYDIVE.it Salò 8 41 Top and Leggings Hollis 200 trilaminato During dressing there was cold wind. As soon as I wore the top and leggings, I was warm enough to prepare all the rest without wearing additional layers. The base layer kept me warm and dry during all moments of my immersion. Absolutely great comfort, like a second skin giving me freedom of movement.
