| View Cart ⇗ | Info

“The first sensation in descending under water in a suit of armor is the sudden, bursting roar in the ears, cause by the air driven into the helmet from the air-pump. The flexible air-hose has to be strong enough to bear the pressure of twenty-five to fifth pounds to the square inch.” -Lupton
