Abstract
A wetsuit comprised of two layers of laminated rubber sponge material which may or may not be fabric coated. A stuffing material of variable thickness is located in selected areas between the two rubber sponges referred to herein as Air Chambers. The two layers of laminated rubber sponges are glued together along their adjacent surfaces except in selected areas where their common borders of the sponges are left unglued and form a watertight construction, i.e., the 'Air Chamber'. The stuffing material is a light material with a density of 0.02.about.0.05 mg/cm.sup.3 and typically formed of multi-layered fiber structure and the like. The Air Chamber can be located at any part of the wetsuit to provide the person who wears the wetsuit the function of heat retaining/thermal insulation and impact protection. In an additional embodiment, the stuffing material is secured within another thin plastic enclosure within the air chamber. This enclosure may be provided as a single pocket or as a plurality of contiguous pockets.
