Wetsuit Problem (Legacy AXIS…
Recently bought a wetsuit (Legacy AXIS Mens 5/3mm GBS Back Zip) that I took to Sicily on a diving trip. When I got the suit I tried it on and it was a perfect fit, matched the online measurements perfectly, well done!
After 6 40min dives in fantastic conditions (rinsing the suit each day in clean water and drying out of direct sunlight) no problems.
When I came to pack my suit up at the end of my holiday I noticed the seam where the 3mm met the 5mm areas that they were coming apart!
The joints are sewn on the inside and butt glued but there appeared to be places where the glue was either missing or had just come apart in quite a few places front and back.
I appreciate this is a low end priced suit and I have not contacted the company on the basis that I know they will probably replace or refund but as the fit was so good i have decided to modify the seams and put seam tape on the outside of all joints 3-5mm, small cost and a bit of time will give me a reasonable wetsuit with excellent fit.
This is NOT a complaint but hopefully may provide information to the supplier and customer to make better informed decisions.
