UK-based Hammond Drysuits now offers its customers the ability to stand out from the crowd and personalise their drysuit.

Customers can now have their name or chosen text embroidered directly onto a new drysuit, onto a pocket of a new suit or a pocket of one in for repair. This is a new service now available from Hammond Drysuits.

“The initial concept of embroidering came from looking into personalising the pockets on our diving range of drysuits,” explains Chris Hammond, managing director at Hammond Drysuits. “We have further carried out some research and we are now able to embroider directly onto the material we manufacture all our types of new drysuits, reaching a wider audience with this new service.”

Names are available in bold or a script font and the embroidery costs are as follows: 

Embroider your name on a pocket – £22.00 
Embroider you name on your Drysuit – £27.00

To have you name/text embroidered on your drysuit contact Hammond Drysuits by visiting www.hammond-drysuits.co.uk, email chris@hammond-drysuits.co.uk or call 01474 704123.

Jeff Goodman

In this exclusive Zoom interview, Jeff Goodman, Scubaverse Editor-at-Large, chats to Jill Heinerth.

Jill is one of the world’s premier underwater explorers, and the first person to dive inside iceberg caves. According to filmmaker James Cameron, “More people have walked on the moon than have been to some of the places Jill Heinerth has gone right here on earth.”

An acclaimed polar explorer, cave diver, author, speaker, filmmaker, and climate advocate, Jill is the first Explorer-in-Residence of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. She is the inaugural recipient of the Sir Christopher Ondaatje Medal for Exploration and Canada’s Polar Medal.

Jill leads expeditions into extreme environments to advance scientific and geographic knowledge. Her projects have been broadcast on the CBC, BBC, PBS, Discovery Channel, and television networks worldwide. Jill was announced as the recipient of the William Beebe Award from the Explorer’s Club and was inducted into the International Scuba Divers Hall of Fame in fall 2020.

Her bestselling book INTO THE PLANET – My Life as a Cave Diver has drawn acclaim from the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, NPR, and O Magazine. Heinerth details her journey into the extreme world of underwater cave exploration, where she has had to overcome fear in order to go where no one has gone before.
