Why neoprene?

Neoprene is a material that has enjoyed unflagging popularity for many years. It is a synthetic rubber material that has many advantages that translate into diving comfort. The most important feature is its insulating properties. This material primarily protects against cooling, which allows for much longer stays in the water. It is worth noting that the structure of the material is approximately many microscopic air bubbles, which makes it more flexible, lightweight, and at the same time distinguishes it with high buoyancy properties. The key is that, unlike, for example, latex, neoprene does not irritate the skin and is pleasant to the touch. It is also used because it is above all very durable and resistant to various damages, and it also retains its elasticity even at low temperatures. In comparison with other materials, neoprene simply remains the best possible solution. Thanks to it, diving is a pleasure and can be performed for a long time even in very difficult water and atmospheric conditions.
