™ PRESIDENT’S LETTER Letter from the President of SEASOFT SCUBA Thank you for viewing our 2019 Catalog. We are grateful for every single customer who chooses SEASOFT SCUBA GEAR. Over the last year we have seen many changes. A new web site has been launched. New products have been revealed. Our drysuit sales more than doubled. One thing that has not changed, we are still having fun while we work hard to make our customers happy. I am, however, concerned with the political climate in the United States and in many other countries. Some have chosen to veer away or even deny the dangers of climate change and the continuing pollution of our earth and its oceans. Here are just a few of numbers to contemplate: • American’s consume the contents of 2.5 million plastic bottles every HOUR! • Eight million TONS of plastic, 16,000,000,000 POUNDS, enters the oceans every YEAR! • When you eat an animal from our oceans you are eating small amounts of plastic because degrading plastic has become a substantial part of the oceanic food chain. • The World Health Organization reports that AIR POLLUTION caused the deaths of 7 MILLION people in 2014 and continues to increase on a global scale though the increase has slowed in recent years. Not reversed, just SLOWED! As you can imagine the above only speaks to a minute amount of information available about what we are doing to our planet and our seas. Take a moment to decide what you can do to minimize your plastic or pollution footprint. God gave us such a marvelous world, let’s thank Him by taking care of it. And PLEASE – recycle, it just makes sense! Bruce Justinen 8294 28th CT NE President, SEASOFT SCUBA GEAR INC.

Bruce Justinen, President of SEASOFT SCUBA: “I’ve been diving for more than 30 years, with more than 5,000 drysuit dives and there is no other drysuit like the SEASOFT XV-4™. It’s smooth-skinned, yet tough as nails, stretchy, resistant to compression and lightweight. It’s astonishing. Here is what some of the experts are saying about the XV-4™.” “Overall, the XV-4™ is one of the most comfortable drysuits we have ever test-dived.” http://www.scubagearreports.com SCUBALABS TESTER’S CHOICE “BOTTOM LINE: The Tester’s Choice in neoprene suits, the XV-4™ was unsurpassed in comfort and warmth in and out of the water.” http://www.scubadiving.com/gear/drysuits-2011-seasoft-xv-4 • Abrasion-resistant exterior has a smooth skin that dries in minutes and eliminates hydro-drag! • SHARKSKIN™ Kneepads. • Stealth™ Athletic Booties with orthotics. • Freedom of movement with stretchy and lightweight neoprene is nothing but incredible. • Self-entry! • Titanium Flake Foil Technology™ for added heat-reflecting warmth. • Si-Tech™ valves, Ti-Zip™ Super Seal zipper. • Deluxe suspenders and one pocket with stainless D-ring. • Chest and arm decals are available in Blue, Yellow, Red, Pink or Gray.

From Bruce Justinen, President of SEASOFT SCUBA, “What gives me the greatest satisfaction in designing a drysuit is being able to condense everything you could ever want in a drysuit into the Ti 3000 and Ti 5000.” • Tough, abrasion-resistant DINA-HIDE™ exterior. • Incredibly warm! • Compressed high-density neoprene has thick cell membranes resistant to compression. • Will last years longer than typical neoprene drysuits. • Rated to 350 feet (107 meters), ideal for technical and re-breather divers. • Stretchy, comfortable and easy to wear suit with self-entry across the back. • Low hydro-drag. • Titanium Flake Foil Technology™ for heat-reflecting warmth. • Si-Tech™ valves, Ti-Zip™ Super Seal Zipper, deluxe suspenders and one pocket with stainless D-ring. • SHARKSKIN™ Kneepads. • Stealth™ Athletic Booties with orthotics. • Chest and arm decals are available in Blue or Gray. Bruce continues, “I love to hear divers tell me that this is the first time they have ever truly been warm. I hear that a lot with the Ti drysuits, that’s why we are in business!” The SEASOFT Ti 3000™ (45˚F - 70˚F) and Ti 5000™ (40˚F - 60˚F) are simply the best in every way. There must be a reason SEASOFT Drysuits are prized by everyone who owns one. Important: Don’t forget that SEASOFT has incredible deals on their Alaska Undergarment™, any SEASOFT Hood and any SEASOFT Ankle Weight™. Must be on the same invoice as the drysuit. See your SEASOFT Authorized Dealer or for more details. SEASOFT Ti 5000™ 4 ™ DRYSUITS SEASOFT TX3™ and TX™ Drysuits These are our best selling drysuits for good reason. The award winning SEASOFT TX3™ and TX™ hybrid neoprene drysuits are available in 3.5 mm (TX3™) and 4.5 mm (TX™). This gives you the choice of picking the best drysuit for your diving conditions. These are incredibly resilient, comfortable and stretchable drysuits! The SEASOFT TX3™ and TX™ drysuits are also versatile, the TX3™ is comfortable in water temperatures ranging from 55˚F to 80˚F. Below 55˚F you’ll want the optional ALASKA™ Undergarment. The SEASOFT TX™ is toasty between 50˚F and 70˚F. Again, below 50˚F you’ll want your optional ALASKA™ Undergarment. We can talk about all kinds of features and benefits but there is nothing that can substitute for the incredible feeling of being warm, dry and comfortable while diving. How awesome would it be to know you have an incredible drysuit and knowing that so many others paid more for a drysuit, not as good as yours. SEASOFT TX3™ The TX3™ and TX™ Drysuits have: • Are rated to 180 feet (55 meters). This makes them ideal for sport diving. • Stretchy, comfortable and easy to wear suits with self-entry across the back. • Low hydro-drag. • Titanium Flake Foil Technology™ for added head-reflecting warmth. • Si-Tech™ valves, Ti-Zip™ Super Seal zipper, Stealth™ athletic booties. • Deluxe suspenders and one pocket with stainless D-ring. • Chest and arm decals are available in Red, Yellow, Blue, Pink or Gray. • Very affordable - a great value compared to virtually any drysuit! SEASOFT TX™ 5 ™ DRYSUITS SEASOFT BLUE DIAMOND™ Commercial Drysuit BLUE DIAMOND™ Commercial Drysuits were designed for the commercial diver who needs to be dry, warm and productive. Productivity comes from the “raglan” sleeves that are almost twice as wide as normal drysuit sleeves, where they are attached to the upper torso of the suit. They give the diver incredible freedom of movement. This freedom of movement means that the entire upper shoulder area is free to move without having to stretch 5 mm or 6 mm of neoprene every time the diver moves his arms or shoulders. This can make a diver 15 - 20% more productive on certain types of dives. The BLUE DIAMOND™ is constructed of 5.5 mm commercial grade neoprene covered in “small diamond”, a tight double weave polyester fabric that is used where abrasion-resistance is needed. This neoprene is warm, tough and will out last all competitors. SEASOFT also puts it’s famous Stealth™ boots on this suit. These boots have an elevated heel and real orthotics, they don’t just look like athletic footwear, they are! Also included is 3.5 mm push through wrist seals that are reinforced and a 3.5 mm neoprene tucking neck seal for comfort, warmth and dryness. You will also find up to 10 feel fewer seams in your BLUE DIAMOND™, this means a drier and stronger suit. The Si-Tech™ exhaust valves are not installed until the suit is ordered so the commercial diver can have the final say over placement. So there you have it, the perfect suit for the hardworking commercial diver - an affordable, comfortable, productive, warm and long-lasting drysuit.
