A hybrid design between Tropical Liner and Navy. Main material is Tropical Liner (Power Stretch Pro) with additional patches of Navy fabric on the lower back to protect the kidney area and the inside of the arms. This combination provides additional warmth when a full Navy suit is not required. The Kwark Navy Undersuit Range is intended for divers swimming in very cold waters, using laminated dry suits.The material was produced on special order for the U.S. Army Special Forces Divers, in order to meet all the required parameters for long-diving in cold waters. Thermally, the Navy Undersuit is the equivalent to traditional warmers based on Thinsulate weighing about 400 g/m. However, the Navy has many advantages which users of such conventional warmers can only dream of.
- The primary advantage of the NAVY is its flexibility. This is NOT the bulky and awkward ‘medieval knight armour’ which cold water warmers are normally associated with.
- It is very comfortable and gives you a full range of motion.
- It’s easy to put on a dry suit over it, the Navy doesn’t roll up
- It provides very good air flow.
- It is very light, weighing less than 1.5 kg.
- Compared to conventional warmers, it can reduce the ballast by at least 2kg.
- Maintains great thermal comfort, including after flooding.
- Perfectly wicks perspiration away from the body.
- It is very well impregnated anti-bacterially and does not smell.
- Dries in a few hours (after complete flooding or washing).
- There is no limit to the number of washing cycles and it can be safely spin-dried.
- Tailor-made durable flat seams provide ultimate comfort.
- It is soft and pleasant to the touch. It does not rub or irritate the skin.
- Custom options possible to choose a colour of the thread

The models for hourglass shaped women (Marilyn Monroe’s shape) are marked with MM*. For them, the line marked as ‘chest MM*’ applies. To distinguish women’s sizes from unisex clothing, women’s sizes are labeled as fashion numbers: 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46. women’s clothing size chart .

The unisex and women’s size charts differ not only in hips, chest and waist proportions. If you look carefully at the different dimensions, you will notice that the height in larger women’s sizes is lower than in the corresponding unisex chart. In small sizes the difference between the charts is less noticeable. However, the contrast becomes much more significant in larger sizes. It is worth to take time and accurately measure yourself in order to find the right size. Kwark’s clothes last many years so it is important that they are well-fitted. Good fit is crucial in case of the Power Stretch clothes, especially if you want to take full advantage of the fabric properties. Power Stretch clothes should be closely-fitted but without squeezing the body. It is a very flexible fabric so do not compare your body size or other clothing with flatly laid Power Stretch clothes. The dimensions will not be the same. Please trust our experience in this matter. We have been working with such flexible fabrics (like Power Stretch) for many years and we have already dressed thousands of users. The dimensions given in the table represent body measurements, not clothing. It is important to accurately measure the body.
