    Abstract: A wetsuit is provided having a torso portion arranged to be secured about a torso of a person. The torso portion includes a neck opening, a pair of upper limb openings and a pair of lower limb openings. A limb extension can be attached to each of the limb openings for covering a respective limb of the person. Each limb extension comprises an elongate tubular member extending longitudinally between an inner end arranged to be secured to the torso portion and an outer free end. The limb extensions can thus be added and removed as desired such that a single wetsuit can be modified for use in varying dive conditions. The use of a single adjustable suit is considerably less costly as compared to purchasing several different types of suits while being convenient enough to adjust to different dive conditions without the need to even remove the torso portion of the suit.
