The following profile icons describe different dive styles, habits<br />

and needs. They will guide you in the following pages of the<br />

catalogue while you choose the Mares products that fit your<br />

diving style best.<br />

FOR DEMANDING DIVERS<br />

Those who dive frequently and in difficult conditions need products<br />

featuring superior quality and consistent performance, time<br />

and time again. Mares has always focused on new technologies<br />

and innovative products that lead to concrete benefits: superior<br />

reliability and performance will be appreciated by the most<br />

experienced demanding divers.<br />

COLD WATER<br />

Designing and engineering products for cold water diving requires<br />

maximum attention to performance, safety and technical details.<br />

Mares creates equipment specific for cold water and ice diving.<br />

Rigorous tests ensure top notch performance keeping you<br />

comfortable, warm and secure. Even the US Navy has conceded<br />

Mares to be the best equipment for extreme conditions.<br />

MAX COMFORT<br />

Comfort is always one of the primary design elements in Mares<br />

equipment. Mares through superior technology continues to<br />

research, innovate and upgrade your level of comfort before and<br />

during your dive. Equipment marked with Max Comfort bring this<br />

quality of comfort to the most up-to-date premier pinnacle.<br />

IDEAL FOR TRAVEL<br />

In today’s world of travel we are strictly confined by airline<br />

weight restrictions, therefore the design of your equipment<br />

needs to encompass elements to be travel friendly. Lightweight,<br />

streamlined, easy to pack and hassle free are just some of the<br />

elements included in the gear marked for travel.<br />

SHE DIVES<br />

This gear line is designed specifically for women in style, cut, and<br />

ergonomics making your dives much more comfortable than in<br />

years past. Careful consideration to detail in functionality and<br />

aesthetic specifically for women make the She Dives collection<br />

the ideal choice for your Scuba and snorkeling needs.<br />

PROFILE ICONS


REGULATORS


R<br />

eliability is on everyone’s mind when choosing an<br />

underwater breathing apparatus. The Mares family<br />

of regulators offers excellent reliability throughout<br />

the entire line, thanks to 59 years of experience in designing<br />

and producing the most innovative and technologically<br />

advanced diving equipment. You will find exclusive patented<br />

features to ensure reliability at depth as well as ease of<br />

breathing. So, what are some other things to consider?<br />

You’ll want to weigh a variety of factors when selecting<br />

a regulator, such as your intended diving environment,<br />

frequency of use, requested comfort, and your price range.<br />

Whichever factors are most important to you will guide your<br />

choice.<br />

Where do you plan to dive the most? Will you be diving in cold<br />

water where a metal second stage is of extra importance?<br />

Maybe you also dream of travelling frequently to warm<br />

and exotic destinations, and wish to keep the weight and<br />

size of the regulator to a minimum. If you think it will be a<br />

combination, the Proton 42 Metal (or the She Dives version)<br />

would be an excellent choice.<br />

How often will you be diving? People who dive very frequently<br />

often choose a regulator with a long-term track record of<br />

maintaining top performance in between scheduled service,<br />

such as the Abyss 22.<br />

Do you experience ‘cotton-mouth’ when diving? If so, be<br />

sure to choose a regulator with an ‘all metal’ second stage<br />

that has a moisturizing effect by collecting condensation<br />

from each exhalation and returning it on your next breath.<br />

Another comfort consideration is the hose positioning. The<br />

22, 32, and 42 first stages all offer optimum, streamlined<br />

hose positioning.<br />

If you want price to be your guide without sacrificing<br />

performance and natural breathing, you can confidently<br />

make a choice of the new Prestige 12, or the revolutionary<br />

Prestige 32 NTT in case you dive in cold water.<br />

On the following page, you will find Icons describing Mares<br />

regulator technology and key features that are most<br />

important for your diving needs. After reading the icon<br />

descriptions you can continue on to the following pages and<br />

find the Mares regulator that fits you best.<br />

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR REGULATOR


TRI-MATERIAL VALVE<br />

Patented technology, conceived and created to<br />

optimize performance, safety, and reliability.<br />

This brass valve is covered with a hard PU then<br />

the head is layered molecularly with a soft PU.<br />

Tri-material (brass, soft polyurethane, and<br />

“heavy duty” polyurethane) reaches a new level<br />

of durability.<br />

ALL METAL TECHNOLOGY<br />

Metal second stages have superior performance<br />

than plastic second stages, especially in cold<br />

water, thanks to the high thermal conductivity<br />

that limits the freezing effect. Additional benefits<br />

are the improved durability, the longer working<br />

life and the less dry mouth breathing.<br />

DFC - DYNAMIC FLOW CONTROL<br />

DFC system minimizes the intermediate pressure<br />

drop during inhalation, making it possible to use a<br />

simpler and more reliable second stage. Any type<br />

of manual adjustment is not necessary, thanks<br />

to the consistency derived from first stages<br />

that guarantees a stable flow of air, even under<br />

extreme conditions.<br />

VAD - VORTEX ASSISTED DESIGN<br />

All Mares second stages offer the unique patented<br />

VAD system. The air bypass tube conveys air to the<br />

mouthpiece creating a swirling vortex with a low<br />

pressure area in center that keeps the diaphragm<br />

down during inhalation, for very sensitive and<br />

easy breathing at all depths.<br />

MESH-GRID<br />

The patented mesh design of the second stage<br />

cover reduces the pressure of water flowing<br />

onto the second stage diaphragm and minimizes<br />

free-flow. Even in strong currents it eliminates<br />

the need for a knob to ‘de-tune’ your air delivery<br />

system to stop free flowing: Advanced technology<br />

through basic physics.<br />

EXTREME COLD WATER<br />

Regulators conceived to guarantee unbeatable<br />

performance and reliability in extremely cold<br />

water, even ice diving: the CWD kit is equipped<br />

on the first stage and the All Metal second stage<br />

is entirely coated with fluoropolymer resin finish,<br />

even on all key components.<br />

NTT - NANO THERMOCONDUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY<br />

A new exclusive patented technopolymer charged,<br />

through nanotechnology, with materials featuring<br />

thermo-conductive properties. Second stages<br />

manufactured in NTT are lightweight in mass like<br />

a plastic housing, while granting performance<br />

similar to metal regulators.<br />

FLUID DYNAMIC DEFLECTOR<br />

This innovative deflector, developed after in-depth<br />

study and tests of fluid dynamics, is engineered to<br />

receive and properly direct the airflow from the<br />

by-pass tube to the mouthpiece. Combined with<br />

the VAD it delivers a very natural and effortless<br />

breathing.<br />

NBS - NATURAL BREATHING SYSTEM<br />

A special corrosion resistant spiral-shaped insert<br />

in the by-pass tube automatically adjusts for<br />

changing demands to airflow making breathing<br />

more natural in any conditions.<br />

INPP 100 MT CERTIFICATION<br />

The Notified Body INPP of Marseilles performs<br />

the strictest tests on regulators to certify they are<br />

compliant with the European Regulation EN250,<br />

granting the best and safest performance with<br />

binary (Heliox) and tertiary (Trimix) mixtures to a<br />

depths of 100 meters.<br />

REGULATORS AND OCTOPUS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS


INSTRUMENTS


C<br />

omputers truly revolutionized diving, extending the<br />

bottom time by computing your dive on a real-time<br />

multiple-level basis, so granting more controlled<br />

and safer dives. Computers naturally became the first<br />

instrument choice by almost all divers. Below are some<br />

considerations to support you in choosing the product that<br />

is right for you.<br />

Configurations: wrist units, such as Nemo Wide, Puck or M2,<br />

are good choices if the thought of checking your computer<br />

should be as easy as checking the time of day on your wrist.<br />

If you then want to wear your computer at work or out for<br />

dinner, a stylish watch-computer like Nemo Excel or Nemo<br />

Sport is the right choice. If your style is more oriented to<br />

keeping everything together, the console Mission Puck 2 or<br />

3 is the suggested purchase.<br />

Air-integrated or non air-integrated: both provide you with<br />

the same type of depth and time information. Air-integrated<br />

versions go one step further by giving you a digital readout<br />

of air pressure. Nemo Air constantly calculates also your<br />

air consumption and gives a constant feedback of your<br />

status during the dive.<br />

Mares computers feature high contrast displays for easy<br />

reading. However, if you need more, Nemo Wide and Nemo Air<br />

displays show the clearest digits at the greatest viewing angle.<br />

You may want to easily change the battery yourself with the<br />

use of common batteries you can buy in most stores. In this<br />

case check which computers feature user-replaceablebattery<br />

function.<br />

Mares computers provide specialized program functions<br />

dedicated to the needs of specific divers: Air and Nitrox<br />

functions are the most common. Other divers’ activities,<br />

like free-diving, need specific further data and alarms, and<br />

bottom-time. It can be useful to put your computer into<br />

gauge mode during tech diving.<br />

Furthermore, don’t forget to take into consideration<br />

the capability of downloading your logbooks to your PC<br />

through a dedicated interface: a feature granted by all<br />

Mares computers.<br />

-24 depth<br />

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR INSTRUMENT


RGBM<br />

The Mares-Wienke “Reduced Gradient Bubbles<br />

Model” algorithm is the most evolved algorithm<br />

to date for preventing the formation of microbubbles.<br />

Obtained from a study done by Dr. Bruce<br />

Wienke in the Los Alamos labs on over 10,000<br />

real dives, RGBM algorithm incorporates Deep<br />

Stop function to further increases safety without<br />

compromising dive time.<br />

SPECIAL FUNCTION MODE<br />

Mares computers provide specialized program<br />

functions dedicated for the needs of specific<br />

divers. On the next pages, highlighted “letters”<br />

in this icon indicate that the Mares computer<br />

provides that function.<br />

Air - Nitrox - Free-dive - Bottom-timer<br />

PRECAUTIONARY PROGRAM SETTINGS<br />

Many Mares computers can be individually set<br />

and adjusted to more conservative dive profiles<br />

if needed. When you do multi-level or multiple<br />

dives during a single day, you can choose different<br />

setting levels in order to adjust your computer to<br />

a more conservative dive profile.<br />

EASY ACCESS<br />

The Easy Access push buttons allow the diver<br />

to operate the computer in all conditions, even<br />

when wearing thick gloves. Navigating through<br />

the computer programs is extremely simple and<br />

very intuitive, whether the computer is equipped<br />

with one, two, three or four push buttons.<br />

SUPERIOR DISPLAY READABILITY<br />

In order to offer easy-to-read instruments in every<br />

circumstance, Mares produces wide computer<br />

displays, with intense backlighting and high<br />

contrast displays. Featuring illuminated, oversized<br />

digits. Special attention is paid to maximize the<br />

viewing angle, to eliminate angular distortion and<br />

to always grant the best readability.<br />

POWERFUL BACKLIGHT<br />

Mares computers are well known for having the<br />

strongest backlight illumination displays. This is<br />

only possible thanks to intelligent power supply<br />

management and the use of standard batteries.<br />

The display can be temporarily or permanently<br />

backlit (depending on the model) for better<br />

readability during night dives or dives with limited<br />

visibility.<br />

MINERAL GLASS DISPLAY<br />

Most Mares computers are equipped with<br />

mineral glass displays. This provides superior<br />

scratch resistance, similar to the mineral glass<br />

used by watch manufacturers. The mineral glass<br />

is shock-proof, tempered, and non-reflective<br />

for better readability in all diving conditions and<br />

visibility levels.<br />

USER-REPLACEABLE BATTERIES<br />

Possibility for users to replace dead or weak<br />

batteries whenever and wherever needed.<br />

Standard batteries can be found almost anywhere<br />

around the world. You never need to abort a dive<br />

with a Mares computer because of a dead battery,<br />

and all your information is stored safely.<br />

AIR INTEGRATED<br />

Computerized detection of air pressure gives<br />

back data on remaining bottom time not only<br />

based on depth, but also based on the rate of air<br />

consumption, ultimately giving you more bottom<br />

time and safer control over your dive.<br />

SOFTWARE UPGRADEABILITY<br />

Allows you to upgrade software over the Internet<br />

using the DRAK interface. This feature makes<br />

it possible to download the latest software<br />

developments as Mares creates them, without<br />

the need to buy a new computer unit. Smart, easy<br />

to use and upgradeable - provided first by Mares.<br />

COMPUTERS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS


BCs


C<br />

hoosing a BC is simplified by classifying your<br />

options into different categories: jacket style vs.<br />

back inflation, weight integrated vs. non- weight<br />

integrated and type of inflation system. There are also BCs<br />

designed especially for women and some that simplify<br />

travel because of their light weight and ease of packing.<br />

Jacket style aficionados cite the ‘armchair style comfort’<br />

they feel while upright on the surface and appreciate having<br />

more pockets than on a back inflation BC. On the other<br />

side, divers dedicated to back inflation love the freedom<br />

of movement provided by having the air cell completely<br />

behind vs. around their torso.<br />

On top of the two categories above, Mares Dragon family<br />

(Dragon, Dragon AT and Kaila for women) incorporates a<br />

‘dragon’ air cell that inflates partly in the rear for freedom<br />

of movement, yet retains the comfort of jacket-style on the<br />

surface.<br />

Nearly all modern BCs are weight-integrated, eliminating<br />

the need for a separate weight belt. Weight release pockets<br />

such as the Mares MRS Plus system are versatile because<br />

they can be used with either hard or soft weights. Even<br />

better, they are released with a simple, single motion.<br />

Instead of the traditional ‘Ergo’ inflator, some Mares<br />

models (Dragon AT, Vector 1000 AT and Origin Sport AT)<br />

feature the unique and patented Airtrim system. Airtrim<br />

simplifies buoyancy control, releases air from any position,<br />

and streamlines the diver by eliminating the existing LP<br />

inflators.<br />

Some BC models are designed specifically for women.<br />

The Mares She Dives line includes the Kaila and Aliikai<br />

BCs, actually designed by women divers: special cuts and<br />

adjustability accommodate a woman’s figure along with<br />

plush linings for comfort.<br />

Those who travel can benefit from the unique ‘Quick-Pak’<br />

system of Icon and Aliikai, that make the BC as easy to<br />

transport as luggage, even as a carry-on during flight.<br />

Another choice is the new lightweight and streamlined<br />

Pegasus.<br />

On the next page you’ll find the icons describing Mares BCs<br />

technologies and key features. Take them in consideration<br />

while choosing your Mares BC.<br />

-38 depth<br />

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR BC


AIRTRIM<br />

The first and only pneumatic system (patented)<br />

that revolutionizes and simplifies buoyancy<br />

control during the dive, making it easy to operate,<br />

precise and immediate in any position and<br />

under any condition. Always at hand, Airtrim<br />

simultaneously operates two exhaust pneumatic<br />

valves that minimize the entry of water.<br />

HIGH LIFT<br />

This design characteristic means high lift capacity<br />

across all sizes compared to traditional bladder<br />

constructions. Demanding and technical divers<br />

are supported even when loaded by the weight<br />

of heavy tanks and many accessories. High lift is<br />

also ideal for recreational divers who don’t like<br />

compromises and limitations for their activity.<br />

BACKMOUNTED<br />

The inflation bladder is 100% in the rear of the BC<br />

enabling high lift capacity, reducing bulk in the<br />

front area for an unrestricted feel and maximum<br />

freedom of movement. Mares backmounted BCs<br />

are fully equipped and designed to support a<br />

comfortable position on the surface.<br />

BPS PLUS<br />

The Back Protection System Plus is a patented<br />

dual position lumbar backpack. Heavily padded<br />

in either position, you can double the padding for<br />

increased lumbar support or extend the length of<br />

the padding depending on body shape for ultimate<br />

dive and pre-dive comfort.<br />

TRIM WEIGHT<br />

This compartment is for using fixed weights to<br />

provide balance. Rear non-releasable weights<br />

holding 2,5kg/5.5lbs per pocket, secured with<br />

quick release buckles.<br />

MRS PLUS<br />

Optimal ballast with a mechanical release system.<br />

A simple click ensures easy and secure storage of<br />

the weight pockets. A single outward pull on the<br />

oversized handle releases your weights. Maximum<br />

load 6kg/13lbs. Velcro interior for dividing the<br />

pocket into multiple sections (M, L, XL).<br />

MOVEABLE D-RINGS<br />

Easy to open Fastex D-ring allows you to change<br />

shoulder strap position to further customize the<br />

length of your BC. Consequently, one BC can fit<br />

more sizes and body shapes. Moveable D-rings<br />

are ideal for easily locating and securely attaching<br />

accessories.<br />

ADJUSTABLE CHEST STRAP<br />

Chest strap adjusts both vertically and<br />

horizontally depending on torso length, body<br />

shape or drysuit valve positioning. Extends more<br />

versatility in the adjustment of the BC in order to<br />

fit your configuration best, therefore granting the<br />

most comfort.<br />

KNIFE GROMMETS<br />

Grommets for easily attaching the Mares Force<br />

knife collection. The grommets are located in the<br />

most convenient area of the BC, so your knife is<br />

always accessible when you need it.<br />

QUICK-PAK SYSTEM<br />

Innovation in compacting and transporting the BC.<br />

With a few quick moves, you can compact your BC<br />

to its minimum dimensions (45x30x30cm). Once<br />

closed, the BC will be better protected and can be<br />

easily stored in a closet or transported in a small<br />

travel backpack.<br />

BCs TECHNICAL ICONS<br />

depth -39


T<br />

he goal of Airtrim when introduced back in<br />

1999 was to offer the diver the most technicallyadvanced<br />

system possible for precise, immediate<br />

buoyancy control in any position, while also eliminating all<br />

the constraints imposed by existing LP inflators.<br />

The first and only<br />

pneumatic system for<br />

fast, precise monitoring of<br />

buoyancy in any position.<br />

Easy to use. An intuitive and<br />

ergonomic control, it’s always<br />

within reach and discharges<br />

simultaneously from both valves.<br />

It’s the most reliable, with<br />

consistent performance over<br />

time that is simply unbeatable.<br />

The Airtrim buoyancy control features two oversized<br />

buttons for inflation and deflation that are easy to operate<br />

and always at hand in the same convenient position.<br />

They are very intuitive to use: the upper button controls<br />

inflation (up). The lower button operates the two pneumatic<br />

exhaust valves (down), which deflate simultaneously and<br />

are located on the top and bottom part of the buoyancy<br />

bag. This patented “Twin Exhaust Valve” system always<br />

deflates the BC with one quick, intuitive maneuver,<br />

regardless of the diver’s position underwater.<br />

What’s more, the pneumatic exhaust valves have an<br />

integrated check valve that virtually eliminates water<br />

seepage.<br />

The LP hose is protected and the corrugated hose has<br />

been eliminated, along with the corresponding risks of<br />

entanglement. The BC is also less subject to drag and is<br />

more streamlined which helps reduce fatigue and increase<br />

efficiency during the dive. It also makes the BC vest easier<br />

to put on and take off.<br />

The oral inflation tube uses the same standard for all<br />

safety-approved life jackets: simply blow into the tube…<br />

no buttons needed.<br />

The Airtrim system is proven more reliable than traditional<br />

LP inflators with corrugated hoses, even when used in<br />

extreme conditions or after long periods of very intense<br />

use. The lack of cords or mechanical devices makes this<br />

system superior to all past attempts.<br />

Now available at different price points, so anyone can have<br />

an Airtrim!<br />

BCs TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS


SUITS


T<br />

he thickness or type of the suit you choose will<br />

depend on the water temperature and the individual,<br />

some people become colder than others, or often<br />

times women will become colder than men. There is no<br />

single piece suit or thickness that can transcend every<br />

water condition.<br />

Mares offers a full line to cover all conditions possible<br />

for your ultimate comfort while diving. For colder waters,<br />

a thicker full wetsuit 5mm and up will provide thermal<br />

insulation and greater body surface coverage. Adding<br />

layers such as a hooded vest or core warmer will further<br />

enhance diving enjoyment when temperatures dip. When<br />

seasons change and temperatures rise you can choose to<br />

eliminate some layers. Warmer waters require less thermal<br />

protection and thinner neoprene material like 3 or 1.5mm<br />

suit. Even in warmer waters 24 °C or 75 °F water being<br />

one of the best conductors of heat, a diver would become<br />

chilled with no exposure suit.<br />

Fit is a key feature when choosing a wetsuit. Choose a suit that<br />

fits snugly with enough flexibility to allow ease of movement<br />

in the water without being restrictive or too tight. The Mares<br />

suit line includes the Trilastic System: a combination of<br />

materials of varying thicknesses for a comfortable fit and<br />

increased durability in all diving conditions.<br />

Another option for exposure protection is to opt for a<br />

Drysuit. Drysuits are ideal in the coldest water or for<br />

people who chill easily by keeping you totally dry. What you<br />

wear underneath is what keeps you warm. Mares thermal<br />

comfort underwear suits come in a variety of thicknesses<br />

for various temperatures to keep you perfectly comfortable<br />

throughout your cold dives or multiple dives.<br />

-56 depth<br />

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR SUIT


DYNA WAVE NEOPRENE<br />

Patented, high density neoprene by Mobby’s.<br />

Compression is accomplished during the<br />

manufacturing process as opposed to physically<br />

crushing. Unique is its ability to remain<br />

unchanged under continuous compression/<br />

expansion stresses. Dyna Wave neoprene is 5%<br />

denser, retains flexibility, and provides insulation<br />

equivalent to 7 mm.<br />

CAP SYSTEM<br />

Bio-Ceramic material is infused with inorganic<br />

and oxidized metals which emit FIR rays to warm<br />

the body surface. Aluminum compound laminated<br />

to durable Nylon to create the airtight integrity<br />

of the shell. The use of aluminum assists in<br />

reducing mildew and odors caused by biological<br />

growth while stored.<br />

ADJUSTABLE SUSPENDERS<br />

Help you get a proper fit in your suit during your<br />

dive. In between dives you can comfortably remove<br />

the torso portion leaving your body free to set up<br />

your equipment, and relax without having to remove<br />

your suit entirely until you’re ready to dive.<br />

360° SWIVELING INFLATOR VALVE<br />

Si-Tech valve allowing complete freedom of LP<br />

hose placement. Either from the left or right<br />

position for easy customization. Si-Tech valves<br />

have a renowned reputation of performance<br />

under extreme conditions. An excellent inflator<br />

button gives you precise control of air.<br />

SI-TECH SHOULDER VALVE<br />

Si-Tech valve with the ability to customize the<br />

sensitivity of your air release during your dive. High<br />

performance and completely dry. Precision accuracy<br />

for perfect buoyancy. Advanced technology through<br />

basic physics.<br />

LATEX COLLAR AND WRISTS<br />

Standard on Polarfit (on Icefit this feature is not<br />

available in all countries). Excellent sealing with<br />

customizable cutting rings. Latex seals provide an<br />

extremely close, comfortable water seal. Utilize<br />

talc powder for easy donning, and never loose the<br />

shape due to expansion stresses.<br />

NEOPRENE COLLAR AND WRISTS<br />

Not available on Polarfit. Good sealing along<br />

with insulating properties. Neoprene Collar and<br />

Wrists are more durable with easy maintenance,<br />

eliminating the need for talc powder.<br />

WEBTEX<br />

Intense research and development by Mobby’s<br />

to find materials that help increase warmth has<br />

led to the development of Webtex. This material,<br />

a type of plush, not only retains heat, but actually<br />

conducts more heat during your dive by using<br />

your body’s natural friction inside the suit.<br />

FRONT ZIPPERS<br />

The design of a Front Zip Closure allows for self<br />

entry and greater freedom of movement by not<br />

having a stiff zipper across your back. An external<br />

zipper flap further protects this crucial portion of<br />

your suit.<br />

VULCANIZED BOOTS<br />

Durable, reinforced, vulcanized rubber lined with<br />

neoprene for added comfort, and featuring a<br />

4mm anti-slip sole. Rear heel notch keeps your<br />

fin strap from slipping, allows you to step on the<br />

notch keeping the boot in place while removing<br />

your foot during doffing.<br />

DRYSUITS TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS


DRYFIRE PLUSH<br />

This special high grade plush does not retain water<br />

and actually wicks water away for increased heat<br />

retention keeping you warmer during your dive.<br />

Additionally Dryfire plush has a quicker drying<br />

capacity which makes it ideal for travel.<br />

METAL & SAPPHFIRE SKIN SEAL<br />

Seals at the neck, wrist, and ankles are lined with<br />

either electric blue Sapphfire Skin lining or Metal<br />

Skin Seal. This skin tight seal creates a close<br />

barrier against your skin minimizing the flow of<br />

water through the suit retaining warmth.<br />

SAPPHFIRE PLUSH<br />

Electric blue plush material increases heat<br />

retention to keep you warm throughout your dive.<br />

Sapphfire plush is very comfortable creating a<br />

soft, cozy material against your skin.<br />

NEOSPAN<br />

New technology in super elastic neoprene<br />

material. Neospan is very soft and flexible, utilizing<br />

an innovative hydro-repellent characteristic to<br />

keep you warm during your dive. It also dries<br />

quickly. The material has a plush like feel for the<br />

most deluxe encounter with your skin.<br />

SUPER ELASTIC NEOPRENE INSERT<br />

Doffing and donning a wetsuit suit is sometimes<br />

difficult. Strategic placement of super elastic<br />

panels enhances wetsuit flexibility in critical<br />

areas and creates a comfortably close fit.<br />

TRICORE<br />

Tricore is a layered material providing a flexible<br />

chest panel for significantly reduced restriction<br />

of breathing. The sandwiched layers permit<br />

the ability to stitch the perimeter for greater<br />

durability. The skin out neoprene is quick drying<br />

keeping you warmer and more comfortable on<br />

the surface.<br />

DOUBLE SEAL SYSTEM<br />

Advanced construction utilizing an internal gasket<br />

seal for the least water movement. The combined<br />

action of the internal neoprene O-ring with the<br />

Skin Seal has created this double barrier called<br />

Double Seal System. Two technologies together<br />

minimizing the water flow thought wrists.<br />

TIZIP<br />

Unique, high strength zipper. The zipper is self<br />

healing, this means that while pulling the zipper<br />

slide closed if a portion of the zip remains open<br />

behind the slide you are able to pull the slide<br />

back over the open area and re-close without<br />

damaging the zip. Rated to 700 mbar.<br />

CUSTOM CLOSURE<br />

New neck closure allows you to easily customize<br />

how tight you want the neck. Velcro neck folds<br />

in on itself when needed to eliminate snagging<br />

of the plush or neoprene. Back zips with skin on<br />

skin zipper seals for superior water seal.<br />

TRILASTIC KNEE PROTECTION<br />

Knee protection made of anti-scratch<br />

polyurethane, not only for a sharp look,<br />

engineered for high strength and protection<br />

without compromising the flexibility. The linear<br />

design moves in line with your body while still<br />

guarding this high wear area.<br />

WETSUITS TECHNICAL ICONS<br />

depth -63


RED: Increased warmth<br />

GREEN: Better protection<br />

BLUE: Greater elasticity<br />

T<br />

rilastic concept born out of intelligence and superior<br />

stylistic technology. This concept offers versatility<br />

in a wide range of environments and transcends<br />

various water temperatures with minimal layering. Too<br />

much material in the wrong places can result in pointless<br />

bulk and unnecessary buoyancy. The notion to minimize the<br />

thicknesses in regions not requiring crucial heat retention<br />

offers yet another benefit of being easier to put on. Thinner,<br />

more flexible neoprene, used appropriately, gives you<br />

more comfort. The materials for this concept have been<br />

overwhelmingly accepted. High tech plush materials<br />

cushion the skin and generate warmth, super sealing<br />

materials and constructions lock in the water that your<br />

body warms. Super elastic placements provide a greater<br />

range of movement. This combination of the best materials<br />

on the market and their arrangement in specific areas<br />

creates a line of intelligent wetsuits: the Mares Trilastic.<br />

FINS


C<br />

omfort, thrust, efficiency and durable construction<br />

are some of the key features all divers are looking<br />

for when it’s time to choose a fin. Mares makes a<br />

wide variety of fins to meet the needs of every diver and<br />

snorkeler. It is important to choose the correct fin to match<br />

your leg strength, and kicking style. Understanding the<br />

different technologies will enable you to make an informed<br />

choice that matches your style. Mares has researched and<br />

has continued to revolutionize the design and manufacturing<br />

of fins to optimize the flow of water off the blade giving you<br />

the maximum amount of thrust with low effort.<br />

The main categories of fins are Full foot, and Open heel.<br />

Full foot fins are great for traveling as they are typically<br />

lighter in weight, less bulky, and often the preferred style<br />

when diving in warm water areas. Open heel requires the<br />

use of a bootie. Mares anatomic open heel foot pocket is<br />

designed to perfectly accommodate dive boots with a sole.<br />

With the straps comfortably tightened, your foot should fit<br />

snugly into the pocket with no gaping around the top of your<br />

foot, and the bottom portion should reach your heel, this<br />

ensures maximum kicking efficiency.<br />

In terms of performance, if you’re more advanced or have<br />

very strong legs, a powerful paddle fin will offer you the<br />

greatest thrust and ability to vary your kicks. Channel Thrust<br />

technology is the best and will optimize the power and<br />

efficiency in every kick, in all conditions. The Superchannel<br />

technology further emphasizes this benefit.<br />

Fins with OPB will provide a comparatively easier kick<br />

without compromising any power: ideal for women, youths,<br />

or anyone that requires an easier kick. To complete all<br />

technology segments we offer split fins utilizing Nature’s<br />

Wing propeller fin technology combined with Mares Hi-tech<br />

ingenuity to provide the easiest flutter kick with good thrust.<br />

-82 depth<br />

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR FINS


OPB - OPTIMIZED PIVOTING BLADE<br />

A llows the blade to assume an optimal angle.<br />

Traditional fins produce lower levels of thrust<br />

at different points in the kicking cycle. OPB<br />

produces optimal thrust during every phase of<br />

the cycle, which minimizes fatigue and produces<br />

a fluid movement through the water.<br />

ELASTIC OPB<br />

U tilizing materials and design to obtain the OPB<br />

without apparent hinge points, the Elastic OPB<br />

causes the blade to flex at an optimal angle during<br />

the upward and downward strokes increasing the<br />

efficiency of the divers kicks. All diver’s effort<br />

became a positive thrust.<br />

CHANNEL THRUST<br />

M ares design is inspired by marine mammals.<br />

Channel Thrust technology maximizes the<br />

channeling of water and moves a much greater<br />

amount of water compared to other fins of the<br />

same size. The result is greater thrusting power<br />

with the same amount of effort.<br />

SUPERCHANNEL<br />

L atest development in Channel Thrust is the<br />

Superchannel. The blade is designed with a<br />

large flexible central Superchannel propelling<br />

water-flow more efficiently down the fin blade<br />

instead of letting it spill over the sides for optimal<br />

performance and minimal diver effort.<br />

ABS PLUS BUCKLES<br />

U nique and patented design. It only takes one<br />

quick movement to easily open or close the<br />

buckle, even when wearing thick neoprene<br />

gloves. The double button release prevents the<br />

buckle from accidentally opening. The most user<br />

friendly in the market.<br />

OPEN FOOT POCKET<br />

E rgonomically designed foot pocket delivers<br />

maximum power and evenly distributes pressure<br />

over the foot to minimize fatigue. Interior, features<br />

internal ribbing that improves fit eliminate foot<br />

suction and prevent foot pocket flexing. Transmits<br />

more power to the blade.<br />

WHALE TAIL POWER<br />

U nlike traditional styles that separate materials<br />

at the foot pocket resulting in a break in power<br />

transmission, a continuum of materials from the<br />

blade ensures seamless transmission of power<br />

through the entire kick cycle. From nature, for<br />

divers.<br />

NATURE’S WING<br />

P atented design by Nature’s Wing split fin<br />

technology utilizes shorter kick strokes to activate<br />

the channel effect and move through the water<br />

with reduced effort. Now available with Mares’<br />

half century experience in Fins.<br />

TRI-MATERIAL CONSTRUCTION<br />

T hree different materials are used in the<br />

construction of Mares fins for superior<br />

performance, maximum elasticity, high durability,<br />

and resistance to aging. The result is Pure Power<br />

in all diving conditions.<br />

UPPER & LOWER STABILIZERS<br />

V ertical ribs that anchor the blade through the<br />

kick cycle to eliminate side to side wobbling effect,<br />

keeping your kicks stable and reducing power<br />

loss. Eliminates ankle-twisting phenomena.<br />

MASKS


F<br />

irst and foremost, a mask needs to be comfortable.<br />

Really the true test if a mask fits well for you is to<br />

actually jump in the water with it. However, there are<br />

some tests out of the water that can direct you to a mask<br />

that works for you.<br />

Suction test, on standard silicone masks without the strap<br />

in place ideally you should place the mask on your face,<br />

press, and inhale slightly in order to create a suction. With a<br />

LiquidSkin mask, this test may not be the best indication of<br />

fit because the skirt is so flexible and molds to the contours<br />

of your face. The following checks would be a better<br />

indication of fit on the LiquidSkin.<br />

Next is to check the inside gasket seal, there should be no<br />

visible gaping and ideally the seal should not be too close<br />

to the outside corners of your eyes or crossing over your<br />

eyebrows. The skirt should not go back to your hairline<br />

either. Make sure all hair is moved away from the sealing<br />

area of the skirt as this can cause leaking. Use a mirror to<br />

check.<br />

Once you have the mask in place take a glance around.<br />

Your vision should be good. Sometimes with dual lens<br />

masks, depending on the person’s eye position, the center<br />

divide piece could be obstructing your vision. Or, if it is not<br />

comfortable on the bridge of your nose, you should consider<br />

a single lens mask.<br />

We offer a full range of masks to choose from and all of<br />

our masks are low volume which is ideal because a lower<br />

internal volume reduces the distance between your eyes<br />

and the mask lens, allowing for a wider field of vision,<br />

less distortion, and improved light transmission. Less<br />

bulk means less drag, less area exposed to leaking, ease<br />

of clearing and easier equalization. There are different<br />

levels of low volume on Mares masks, some masks have<br />

lower volumes than others so if you are an avid free diver,<br />

the lowest possible volume may be the best choice. Above<br />

all, comfort is key. Perform the tests above then finally,<br />

Just Add Water.<br />

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR MASK


LIQUIDSKIN<br />

The most important innovation since the<br />

introduction of silicone masks. LiquidSkin the<br />

Bi-silicone exclusive technology. Two different<br />

types of silicone: a firmer portion for support<br />

structure and a softer portion for contact with<br />

your face. 45% softer on skin of unparalleled<br />

comfort. 270% greater elasticity for a perfect fit.<br />

MONOLENS<br />

The ideal choice for who want to have an open<br />

field of vision. The right approach for those who<br />

wants a panoramic view of the oceans.<br />

BI-LENS<br />

Due to their construction bi-lens masks usually<br />

provide less internal volume. They guarantee<br />

great performance and durability. Ideal for divers<br />

that are looking for the possibility to install<br />

corrective lenses.<br />

OPTIONAL OPTICAL LENSES<br />

Mares offers corrective lenses for most models. In<br />

addition to the negative corrective lenses (-1 to -7) ,<br />

some models also have positive (+1,5 to +3). Mares<br />

design makes it quick and easy to install lenses.<br />

ERGO BUCKLES<br />

Mares uses the most innovative buckle design<br />

in the World. These buckles make adjusting the<br />

split strap fast and intuitive. Sturdy yet compact,<br />

they are designed specifically to optimize the<br />

advantage of Mares skirt mounted buckles.<br />

BUCKLES ON SKIRT<br />

By attaching the buckles to the skirt masks have<br />

superior hydrodynamics because the strap fits<br />

closer to the head. In addition the tension exerted<br />

by the strap acts on the skirt and not directly on<br />

the frame reducing the pressure of the frame<br />

against the face.<br />

TRICOMFORT<br />

Tricomfort technology is a softer material<br />

overmolded on the frame in the area of the<br />

forehead and nose. This soft material provides<br />

superior comfort during frequent or long dives.<br />

WIDE FIELD OF VISION<br />

Mares R&D and Design divisions have conducted<br />

numerous computer simulation and complex<br />

studies on the faces shape. The results are masks<br />

which combine great comfort with an incredible<br />

field of vision.<br />

LOW INTERNAL VOLUME<br />

Masks with less internal volume are more<br />

compact to store in the jacket pocket. The<br />

distance between lenses and the eyes is less and<br />

the result is a wider field of vision. For the apneist,<br />

less volume makes easier compensation.<br />

MID SIZE<br />

Mares has dedicated its effort to create a line of<br />

masks in Mid size. Adults with narrow faces and<br />

young divers may find this an ideal choice. Those<br />

divers will discover the pleasure of a perfect fit<br />

within Mares technologies.<br />

THE NEW ERA IN MASK COMFORT<br />

The most important innovation since the introduction of<br />

silicone masks. Bi-Silicone Technology. In all of the current<br />

masks on the market, the skirt is made of rubber, silicone,<br />

or another medium-hard elastomer. All of today’s masks<br />

are a compromise, dictated by the need of the frame<br />

support structure for a relatively hard material in the area<br />

of the lenses to ensure a good seal against the water and<br />

resist deformation. However, the area that rests against<br />

the face must be very soft and elastic for the mask to be<br />

comfortable and better adapt to the various contours of the<br />

face. Until today, manufacturers have been forced to look for<br />

compromise solutions, since the skirt was made of a single<br />

material. Mares Bi-silicone technology LiquidSkin ® greatly<br />

surpasses the current single material skirt technology.<br />

LiquidSkin ® incorporates two different types of silicone into<br />

one molded skirt: A firmer portion for support structure<br />

and a softer portion for contact with your face. The support<br />

structure and the area of the seals are moulded with a<br />

silicone that is 30% harder than the traditional material.<br />

The section that rests on the face is made with silicone that<br />

is 45% softer and 270% more elastic. The extremely soft<br />

silicone portion rests on the face delivering a new level of<br />

comfort. The marks that are typically left on your face after<br />

a dive are mostly eliminated.<br />

The superior elasticity and softness of LiquidSkin ®<br />

allows the mask to fit perfectly on a wider range of faces.<br />

LiquidSkin ® adapts to facial movement and offers a great<br />

seal, virtually eliminating water leakage. Equalization is<br />

easier due to the super soft nose pocket, its like pinching<br />

your own nose. Its light weight and soft adherence to the<br />

face are so gentle that you can forget you’re wearing it.<br />

LiquidSkin ® is the ideal mask for all kinds of diving, from<br />

snorkeling to freediving to scuba, both for recreational and<br />

professional divers.<br />

ACCESSORIES


HEAVY DUTY WHEELS<br />

All Mares bags include rugged and durable<br />

construction wheels. With a diameter of 9 cm and<br />

a with a tire tread 3cm wide, they can maneuver<br />

over streets, through airports and to your dive<br />

with no problem. All Mares bag wheels are<br />

attached with stainless steel screws. This system<br />

makes the wheels much more durable than bags<br />

using rivets<br />

BACKPACK SYSTEM<br />

With little effort a large piece of luggage can be<br />

transformed into a comfortable Backpack. A big<br />

pocket positioned under the bag’s case contains<br />

two big and soft shoulder straps. In a minute your<br />

wheeled bag becomes a backpack. Additionally,<br />

the innovative Mares x-strap System converts the<br />

traditional handles, by attaching to a metal snap<br />

hook, into the shoulder straps of the bag.<br />

TELESCOPIC HANDLE<br />

Mares biggest bags, ideal for long trips, are<br />

furnished with a telescopic handle. Hidden into a<br />

pocket placed on the top of the bag, when needed<br />

the handle can be extended making it very easy to<br />

pull and maneuver the bag, even when filled with<br />

diving equipment.<br />

HARD CASE<br />

The hard case is the ideal solution to store your<br />

valuable diving equipment. Designed and tested<br />

by divers looking for the very best in terms of<br />

capacity and durability, the hard case is separated<br />

into two internal compartments, one for clothing<br />

and one for equipment.<br />

HARD BOTTOM<br />

All the biggest bags of the new Cruise collection,<br />

are reinforced with a hard bottom. The hard<br />

bottom makes the bag more stable and tear<br />

resistant. The storage space is stronger and<br />

offers better protection. The hard bottom makes<br />

the attachment of the wheels and the telescopic<br />

handle much more durable. The result is really a<br />

strong bag.<br />

PROTECTIVE COVER<br />

Keeps your bag clean. A fashionable black cover<br />

with a big Mares logo printed on top will protect<br />

the bag during the longest voyage. The nylon<br />

cover will protect your bag from rain, dust, stains<br />

and scratches. A hole on top of the cover allows<br />

for use of the telescopic handle when covered.<br />

SPIRAL ZIPPERS<br />

All Mares bags come with Spiral Zips. These zips<br />

make it really easy to open and close the pockets<br />

no matter which direction they are facing.<br />

DETACHABLE POCKET<br />

An extremely useful additional bag. A small<br />

beauty case ideal for travel or during a tour. A<br />

mirror is included. The Cruise Roller comes<br />

with a detachable pocket ideal to store the small<br />

things we always want to bring with us even when<br />

we go diving.<br />

HEAVY DUTY CONSTRUCTION<br />

All Cruise bags are reinforced with stainless<br />

steel rivets and screw providing extra durability<br />

and extra protection. Components are heavy<br />

duty stitched and attached with stainless steel<br />

rivets between the hard components (bottom,<br />

case, telescopic handle) and the material, all to<br />

increase durability.<br />

BUSINESS CARE DESIGN<br />

Several bags in the new Cruise collection come<br />

with a business dedicated area. The Cruise<br />

Journey and Cruise Office are reinforced and<br />

padded to properly protect your laptop, Logbook,<br />

MP3, Mobile phone, Agenda, Pens and all your<br />

other business tools.<br />
