RRP £140
The Original Weezle Undersuit offering excellent all year round thermal protection under any type of drysuit in waters similar to those round the UK.
The Weezle Undersuit has a unisex design and comes in 9 sizes from Extra Small to Extra Extra Large and has a generous cut.
Incorporated into the design are 2 hip pockets and an innovative ‘slashed’ cuff which removes the need for thumb loops. On the shoulder is a toughened nylon back panel to protect from dry zip damage.
The Extreme Undersuit is constructed from 4 layers of specially chosen fibres each chosen to perform differently offering good thermal protection under any type of drysuit in waters similar to those round the UK.

Has very high Thermal Retention Properties
The ability to retain heat within an undersuit is the key to its success. We at Weezle believe we have achieved this to a degree that is far ahead of any other undersuit on the market. What's more, the feedback we are getting supports this belief.
Our undersuits success lies in the use of three materials performing together in a unique manner which no undersuit containing a single factor can match.
The outside layer of the undersuit is made from Pertex. This material can often be found in outdoor clothing because it is windproof, water resistant, yet breathable. Several divers have reported that they were unaware of leaks in their dry suits until de-kiting, due to the resistance of our undersuit to water.(For a more detailed look at the materials involved, Check out Undersuit Technical Spec.)
Conserves heat even when wet
The next layer is the filling. This consists of a combination of fibres with different inherent characteristics. The high thermal retention property of the suit lies in this filling. One of the properties designed into the fibre, is the fact that it is hydrophobic (repels water) so even if you suffer a total flooding of the suit, some thermal retention is retained.
Another feature of the material is that it expands to its full potential, this means that you get the maximum heat retention available.

Removes moisture from your skin
Trapped moisture in the fibres of undersuits caused by perspiration has a cooling effect as heat is conducted away from the body. The Weezle undersuit has been designed with a wicking layer next to your skin to remove moisture and prevent heat loss.(For a more detailed look at the materials involved, Check out Undersuit Technical Spec).
Perspiration
The human body gives out moisture constantly, as part of its metabolic process. The minimum quantity, called 'perspiration insensibilis' is about 0.5 litres in a 24 hour period. An acclimatized human body can loose as much as 1 litre per hour, without taking exercise into account. Without an efficient wicking system, this stays next to the skin, leading to cooling as the dive progresses. Many suits claim to have this system but few have as higher specification as Weezle suits. Even the most expensive of under suits can carry up to 1% of their weight in water in the fabric. Some Weezle suit wearers have believed that their dry suit has sprung a leak, their under suit exterior was so wet, until they realised that it was in fact them that was leaking. Over heating above water can be avoided by vacuum packing. Dries remarkably quickly
Has minimal resistance to movement
Due to the soft and flexible nature of the materials used in the construction of our suits, there is amazing ease of movement available. This feature will be of special interest to technical divers enabling freer access to isolation valves etc.
It compresses down to an unbelievable size!
The composite of materials used in the suit construction enable it to be compressed to a silly size. In the case of the Weezle Extreme it ends up around the size of a football and the Weezle Compact will go even smaller.
Developed and patented by Snugpak, the spider strap system will compress just about any Weezle suit to almost half its pack volume. The ability to pack the suits into much smaller spaces makes the Weezle Range much easier to include in limited baggage space.
Fully washable
All Weezle undersuits are fully washable by hand or machine. Instructions are given on the care label sewn into one of the inner seams. See Caring for Your Weezle for more information.
Anti snag device for shoulder zip suits
From experience we have added a specially designed reinforced shoulder section to avoid that annoying and frustrating suit zip pinch. This will also avoid dragging, snagging and damage to the most expensive part of your dry suit, the dry-zip.
Full body twin slider anti-snag zip
A simple but ingenious twin sliding anti snag fastening system [yes, it's a zip!!]. Specially designed to avoid those annoying sometimes painful entanglements associated with conventional zip systems. The length and the fact that it is twin sliding enables it to be used with a pee valve.
