Diver's Heat Retention Suit

Diver's heat retention suit, made by Strentex Fabrics Ltd., a one-piece coverall to be worn under a diver's 'dry' suit. The fabric's sandwich construction provides for reflection of body heat and insulation, the outer layer tough and hard wearing. The foam is compressed by increasing pressure as the diver goes deeper so the suits working depth is limited.
