Provides astonishing warmth without contributing to bulk or buoyancy
The fabric traps a very thin layer of air next to the skin, keeping the wearer drier and more comfortable
Flat seams for next-to-skin comfort
Available as a set with top and leggings, or as a 1-piece under suit
Top includes a crotch strap to ensure a good fit under the dry suit and thumb loops to hold the sleeves in place during donning. The thumb loops should be removed from the thumbs and pushed back under the wrist seals prior to diving.
Leggings have a high waistband to prevent separation of the top and leggings during the dive and uniquely designed foot pockets to ensure leggings stay in place during the dive (no socks included).

Safety Warning
There is no generally valid rule about what undersuit to wear at different water temperatures. An individual diver’s physical condition, body morphology, rate of work and working conditions and any recent exposure to cold, will influence how long he or she can tolerate exposure to different temperatures. There will always be great individual variability in thermal tolerance. The temperatures shown are approximate ranges for comfort for the different thermal performance of suit materials.
VIKING™ XT250 is designed to be worn on its own underneath a dry suit, or under another under suit for added insulation.
The XT250 fabric traps a very thin layer of air next to the skin, keeping the wearer drier and more comfortable. Even when wet, it retains a significant degree of its thermal performance, so that the diver can continue the dive in relative comfort.
Available as a 2-piece set with top and leggings (no socks included), or as a 1-piece under suit.
