Mares Sniper 5mm Black

Mares Sniper 5mm Black - A Warm, Durable Spearfishing Wetsuit Built for Real NZ Conditions

The Mares Sniper 5mm Black is a no‑nonsense spearfishing wetsuit designed for divers who want warmth, protection, and a reliable fit without the price tag of high‑end open‑cell suits. Its streamlined one‑piece design and anatomical cut give you natural movement in the water, making it a solid choice for both new and experienced spearos.

Warmth and Flexibility You Can Feel

The Sniper uses soft, flexible neoprene that moulds comfortably to the body, helping reduce water flow and keep you warmer during long sessions. The full nylon lining makes the suit easier to get on and off than traditional open‑cell suits, while still offering dependable thermal performance in cooler New Zealand waters.

Built‑In Protection for Spearfishing

This suit is designed around the realities of spearfishing—kneeling on rocks, loading guns, and moving through rough terrain.

• Reinforced knee panels for durability and comfort
• Chest loading pad for easier, safer speargun loading
• Glued and blind‑stitched seams to minimise water entry
• Wrist and neck seals to help reduce flushing

These features work together to keep you warm, protected, and comfortable throughout the dive.

Easy to Wear, Easy to Remove

The Sniper’s pre‑shaped cut improves mobility, helping you move naturally while diving or stalking fish. An easy‑off system makes getting out of the suit far simpler than many spearfishing wetsuits—especially handy at the end of a long day in the water.
