    Use UV Tech™ to protect & restore gaskets

    With exposure to sunlight, saltwater, and chlorine, synthetic gaskets degrade over time due to the loss of structural oils called plasticizers. Proper protection with UV Tech™ is essential for maximizing scuba gear life.

  • DWR Finish

    DWR Finish

    All rainwear is factory treated on the outside with a special water repellent spray called DWR (for “Durable Water Repellent”). Over time that treatment wears off causing fabrics to “wet out” – which reduces breathability and creates excess condensation, making you damp and cold. ReviveX water repellents are unique because they bond to both the fabric and any remaining factory DWR creating the most durable water repellent finish available.

    Stove Tip

    If your butane stove is struggling in cold weather, set it in a pot lid and add 3/4” (15mm) of cool water. The stove will roar to full power (the fuel is now at least 32˚ F, 0˚ C). Do not use hot water in the lid.
