Improved design, greater flexibility and more ways to design your personal drysuit.

Models for WOMEN and for MEN available in three versions:

FLEX, STEALTH and STEALTH HYBRID

Opting for our STEALTH model (nylon trilaminate) means light but resistant protection. The combination of elasticity and lightness guarantees unparalleled freedom of movement during the dive.

Our FLEX (polyester trilaminate) fabric is specially designed for durability and comfort to create a sturdy suit. Originally designed for military use, the fabric is laminated with a flexible butyl layer to provide protection without stiffening.

colour available TOP/LEGS

The two fabrics can be combined to form our STEALTH HYBRID (nylon/polyester trilaminate) wetsuit with Stealth on the top and Flex on the bottom to provide mobility and exceptional durability.

Designed to move with you, the new Argonaut 3.0 design allows for a perfect fit and freedom of movement during buoyancy diving.

AFT (Articulated For Trim or articulated for trim): Optimized for diving in horizontal trim, the exclusive design of the legs of Argonaut 3.0 is designed for optimal comfort in the water, allowing unrestricted freedom of movement on the knees and thighs for complete comfort during the dive.

The redesigned telescoping torso fits more closely to the body for a slimmer silhouette, and the new warm collar at the neck allows you to stow the hood flaps quickly and securely.

With a composite watertight zipper running from the right shoulder to the left hip, flexibility and fit are improved, as is gas management when exhausting air from the left shoulder.

Argonaut 3.0 can be customized with latex or neoprene seals glued on the neck and wrists, with the fixed Ellipse, Si-Tech QCP, Ultima systems or the new intuitive PSI system.

Designed for Fourth Element's award-winning BIOMAP measurement system, this is a truly tailored drysuit, built for adventure.
