Abstract: A dry diving suit has a protective piece which extends completely around each leg, the underlying material of the leg and the protective piece being united longitudinally only at the inseam. A two-layer leg is thus provided with but one longitudinal seam. Each leg is glued at its lower edge to a latex sock. The protective piece is seamed circumferentially to the leg above the glue line of the sock. The inseam extends vertically down only to the circumferential seam of the protective piece.
