Undergarments for fat people

[UnixMarine]

I currently use some bare 3xl undergarments, but they are just slightly too small. I would love an all in one as well as two piece, but it doesn't seem like anyone makes them for the fat divers. I guess we only dive in the warm stuff normally?

Not sure what type of diving you have in mind - but I bought some fleece tops and bottoms from K/Walmart and have used them successfully in Arctic diving. I also had Bare/Viking/other one-piece suits and while they are nice in that you step into them - just find it easier to use two pieces (lazy) which can accommodate different sizes better. The rub is when the two pieces crawl in different directions with the drysuit shell.

meander over to REI and check out their Polartec options, should have something that fits. Polartec is Polartec, so the dedicated dive undergarments are generally only slight construction changes that if you're halfway handy with a sewing machine can do yourself *thumb loops and stirrups usually, sometimes an elastic crotch strap but not always. You can check LL Bean out for union suits as well for one piece designs.

Some brands make made to measure undersuits.

Or this is not what you are talking about? Were you looking for base layers?

You could have a look at the whites fusion undergarment, big sizes and lots of stretch. Until that came out I used polar tec from an outdoors outfitter.

A lot of folks use Lavacore, they have suits up to 4xl

I currently use a White's Fusion undergarment. While I could make it fit me when I weighed 260#, it was a serious pain getting into. Now that I'm down under 225# I get into it a lot easier.

When I was heavier, my favorite undergarment of all was the Weezle Extreme.

DUI can make their one piece undergarments (150, 300, 450) made to measure
