Tech Shorts with Cargo Pockets by Apeks
Apeks Tech Shorts: The Storage Your Wetsuit is Missing
Wetsuits are great for warmth, but they are terrible for storage. If you are tired of clipping everything to your harness or stuffing things up your sleeve, the Apeks Tech Shorts are the upgrade you need. These tough neoprene shorts add the functionality of a drysuit to your wet diving rig, giving you a secure place to stash your essential tools.
Serious Cargo Capacity
These aren't just swim trunks; they are a gear management system. The large drysuit-style pockets provide ample room for your wetnotes, a backup mask, and spools. Inside those pockets, internal bungee loops allow you to clip off your equipment, so you don't accidentally pull out your slate and watch your backup light drift into the abyss. There is even a small zip pocket on the flap specifically for securing small spares like bolt snaps.
Built for Cold Hands and Rough Water
Opening pockets with thick neoprene gloves can be frustrating. Apeks solved this by adding integrated grip bars to the pocket flaps, making them easy to grab and open even with limited dexterity. When you are waiting on the surface, the protective rubber logo prints on the back provide extra grip, stopping you from sliding around on a wet RIB tube.
Durability and Comfort
Constructed from 3mm (approx. 0.12 in) compressed limestone neoprene, these shorts are built to take a beating while staying comfortable. The liquid fusion seams ensure the stitching holds up against the rigors of diving, preventing the unraveling common in lesser gear.
The Perfect Fit
Getting the right fit over different wetsuits is simple. The adjustable waistband uses two hook-and-loop flaps combined with an adjustable strap and a quick-release buckle. This allows you to cinch them down tight over a thin rash guard or loosen them up to fit over a thick exposure suit.
Pair them with a rash guard or wear them over your wetsuit for the ultimate storage solution. Order your Apeks Tech Shorts today!
