Default Drysuit in London

I post another message, because the first "shopping in London" is
certainly considered as spam, and noone perhaps read it! (sorry for
those who read my first message!)


Hello divers!

I want buy a dysuit, but in Paris (france), I just find a few models, so
I plan to come in London and see what is buyable (crush neoprene -I
think Northern Diver *diveMaster* or Poseidon...? for a cost about
500-550 L?).
So: what are the bigs shops in London, with differents models, sizes+++
(I test here the Scubapro but it doesn't fit for me),
for a drysuit? And Do you think there are open the next week?

Thank's divers!
(and excuse me for my poor english -I hope my post is readeable?!!)

Personally there are better suits to be bought for the money than the
Northern Diver 'Divemaster'.
You're guarenteed to get wet in one

Ok, thanks for your answer. I know this website, but I would like not a
internet dealer, but a "non virtual" dealer for wear *on me* differents
drysuit and see what is the good one for me (I'm tall and a little
weight -for the sizes, it's not easy: the scubapro for exemple is too
large or too short! pffffff!!!)

sorry I should have been clearer. The website will be able to advise you
what local dealers are to where your location will be...

I think your right to chose a dry suit from a dealer. I just bought one. an
oceanic
I went to a shop they measured me ,it was then ordered and did not fit when
it arrived. I am long and thin too
the first one I tried was a long body but it did not fit in the legs so I
chose the next size up
in normal size body this seems to fit better. The shop was left with the
postage bill to get the right size suit for me
I tried several under suits and only one fitted me right so it makes sense
to try before you buy. I bought my suit from
selsey on the south coast not an ideal location for you to travel to unless
you have a car and can be bothered to drive
there are two dive shops one in selsey and on in west wittering. Im sure
someone else can suggest a better dive shop(bigger) which is easier to get
to from Paris how are you going to get here fly / drive

Regards David

I got my Oceanic Aerdura from Fish in the City which is a Mike's connected shop
located near Liverpool Street. They have a small range of suits and very patient
staff so I'd recommend them for trying suits on.
