Täyspuvut

Täyspuvut, known in English as full suits or drysuits, are a type of specialized clothing designed to keep the wearer completely dry. They are typically made from waterproof materials such as neoprene, trilaminate, or vulcanized rubber. Täyspuvut are characterized by their airtight seals at the neck, wrists, and ankles, preventing any water from entering the suit. Some täyspuvut also incorporate built-in boots or allow for separate boots to be attached.

The primary function of a täyspuku is to provide thermal insulation and protection from the environment while maintaining dryness. This makes them essential for activities in cold or wet conditions where hypothermia is a risk. Täyspuvut are commonly used in a variety of water sports and professional applications. Divers, particularly in cold water environments, rely heavily on täyspuvut to stay warm and safe. They are also used by kayakers, surfers, sailors, and rescue personnel. In industrial settings, täyspuvut can offer protection against hazardous substances or extreme temperatures. The design of a täyspuku often includes features like zippers for entry and exit, relief zippers for personal needs, and pockets for carrying equipment. Proper maintenance, including cleaning and checking seals, is crucial for ensuring the longevity and effectiveness of a täyspuku.
