Help me find a neoprene drysuit pocket!

Hi to all,

I am new to the diving world; a diving virgin you may say. I have recently purchased a neoprene typhoon drysuit which fits well and keeps me dry. The only problem is i dont have any storage on it. I wanted to glue a drysuit pocket but cant find a good one.

I was originally going to buy the Beaver Cargo Drysuit pocket but as far as im aware you can only buy the pocket fitted to a beaver drysuit!

I want a relatively big pocket with a velcro fastening if anyone has any ideas.

Thanx in advance!

Bowstone do a good one. They sometimes come up on eBay for as little as £12.50.

thankyou for the quick responses. i have gone ahead and ordered the beaver cargo one that was found.

Now comes the fun part. i've ordered a tin of dunlop glue. Never done it before but we'll see if it will stay on.

I don't know if this is the same as the one I saw, but I was once shown a Beaver pocket that had no back -you just glued the edges on to the suit and the leg material provided the "backing".

I fitted a couple of the Beaver ones, they work really well. My mate lent me a block that fitted inside the pocket to give it some shape.

Good luck

I have just had 2 Dive Xtras ones fitted to my Protec suit. They are nice and big, very good drainage holes, velcro holds them flat when empty (a nice touch) and the anchor points are secure for your bungee chord.

Basically everything I wished the original Protec pockets were...

I'm after some bellows-style pockets to fit to a neoprene suit!
