Hello Wet Friends,

today we have some oldie but goodie pictures! These are pictures of me in my Hydroglove Dry Suit with a lovely Swedish Army Rainsuit over the wetsuit!

Image

The Hydroglove suit goes on first. It is all soft, latex rubber!
Image

Another view.
Image

I am sorry to say those cute rubber boots are no longer with us: they wore out.
Image

Now on to the Swedish Rainsuit.
Image

As you can see I added the rubber hood and matching rubber gloves.
Image

Now for the jacket.
Image

This jacket is unusual because there is not hood. I suspect this jacket is made to wear driving a tank.
Image

Look at the imprint.
Image

Close ups of the straps.
Image

Some people just love the pants and straps...

I love your Hydroglove drysuit, I'm hoping I'll be in a position to afford one of those in the coming months and I'm going to make it my life's mission to own one. I do like the look of you Swedish rainsuit too, I bet it will be a lot easier to find one of those!

Thanks Kinky-in-Scotland. I would completely recommend look up Hydroglove. The company was off line a few years because the found pasted away. I just recently got an email saying that the company has restarted production! Additionally they will create the suits in different colors!

Hello Rainearlvr. The rubber suit is chlorinated so it is very soft!

Hi Rachel,

Thanks for the information, I did a little digging around on the internet and things don't look as hopeful for Hydroglove at the moment, here's a link to a scuba diving board with posts from the Hydrogloves owners' widow, https://www.scubaboard.com/community/th ... ss.547142/ If you do hear anything else in the future, please let me know.

hello Kinky-In_Scotland,

permit me to stop this thread and start a new one centered around Hydroglove.
