Repalcement pockets Kaila XXS

[mksmith713]

My wife has a Mares Kaila in size XXS.
Her weight pockets went missing and I really want to replace them for her.
I have no idea where to buy replacement pockets.
I did find one place but the only size they had was small.
Will small MRS pockets fit an XXS Kaila BC?

it looks as if there are only 2 sizes of mrs plus pockets the small(9lbs) and large(13lbs) those are the only two mentioned in the mares catalog. hope that helps.

The small pocket is what you need. Any authorized Mares dealer should be able to assist you.

Best,

It's sad that no one from mares was willing to help me when I shared with them my plight, which seems to be common with the MRS system.
My wifes pockets fell free from her BCD while doing her first dives in her brand new Mares Kaila.
She lost both pockets on a two tank trip.
She didn't have weights in them because she was diving steel tanks and she's slightly overweighted with them.
Now we were left with a brand new BCD with NO WEIGHT POCKETS.
The one person who did respond from Mares said I should go buy another set.
I'm still frustrated that I just bought this BCD and within 2 dives I have to spend another $50.00 to buy new pockets which will probably fall out again.
The only reason she needs the pockets is for travel when we're forced to use the local AL 80's

Is there a fix for this?
Not just the structural issue of the pockets falling out but replacing the pockets?
Is the issue the pockets themselves or the BCD?
I'm ready to return this thing for a refund as well as her new wetsuit, She Dives Bags and X-Vision mask.
Getting a bad taste in my mouth.
