diving suit
Deep-sea outfit
A diving suit is a waterproof garment that allows a person to work underwater.
Traditional diving suits cover the entire body and connect to a surface air supply through a hose; the diver wears a helmet with viewing ports.
Modern variants include wetsuits and drysuits for scuba diving.
Specialized suits can withstand extreme depths: The crew recovered the wreck using atmospheric diving suits.
