Summer undergarments for trilam drysuit

[Sbiriguda]

Hello everybody, I got a Seaskin trilam drysuit and the heavy winter undergarments also from Seaskin. I would like to buy also some summer light undergarments to dive in the sea. What do you use when the water temperature is warm? Thanks

What is "warm"?

Between 16 and 20 celsius degrees (Mediterranean sea in summer)

A good wicking layer and a medium insulation layer , no cotton but you probably already have stuff that will work fine with a good base, the same thing you would wear outdoors in early spring should work, adjust as needed.

A moisture wicking base layer and a thin merino wool top and bottom.

I use a Santi flex190, plus some baselayers. Above 16°C, I start removing baselayers.

Expansive solution, you may find something cheaper.

EDIT: as a matter of fact, at 16°C I use quite a bit of baselayer - I could actually use thicker undergarments if it wasn't for the outside temperature. However, from 16 to above, as I said, I start feeling comfortable and I start removing baselayers...

Exposure protection is very personal. I would choose to wear my ageing Fourth Element Artics at those temperatures.

I just wear a thin merino top and bottom during the summer weather.

I use a thin undergarment for 2 dives in that if the air is also warm. I have a pinnacle one I like.

If the air is chilly I stay with my artics.
