Title:
SUIT FOR TO BE WORN IN OR ON A BODY OF WATER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/104652
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a suit such as a wetsuit or drysuit for use in or on a body of water. The wall of the suit includes an inner layer (8) of wool or wool blended material, an intermediate membrane (6) which is substantially impermeable to the passage of water therethrough and an outer layer (22) which acts as a protective layer. There is no need to provide a layer of foam rubber and hence the thickness of the suit wall can be reduced in comparison to conventional suits. The invention also relates to the method of manufacture of the wool or wool blended layer and the provision of one or more panels including said layer which can be attached to the inner face of suits.
