How We Built the Sons of Triton Commercial Diver Rashguard

Engineered for the Deep. Designed for Divers

Commercial divers put their bodies through conditions most people will never experience—sharp barnacles scraping against your arms, chafing from harnesses, cold currents, long hours underwater, and the constant need for reliable protection. When we set out to create the Sons of Triton Commercial Diver Rashguard, we made one promise: Build something that can survive the same work we do.

Born From Real Commercial Diving Work

This wasn’t a product made on a computer screen. It was made underwater, through months of real commercial diving jobs—ship husbandry, barnacle cleaning, prop polishing, and hull inspections.

The rashguard uses a premium 82/18 nylon-spandex blend with UPF 50 protection, strong enough to resist abrasion while staying flexible for long hours underwater. During testing, we rubbed it against steel hulls, barnacles, and sharp edges. It didn’t tear. It didn’t stretch out. It didn’t lose shape.

After three full months of daily dives, the test piece still looks new.

Designed With Purpose, Not Just Style

Every feature on this rashguard solves a real problem commercial divers face.

1. Turtle Neck (Roll-Down Design)
Protects your neck from chafing caused by harness straps, wetsuit collars, hood seams, and marine irritants. It’s a rare feature in rashguards, but essential for divers who spend hours underwater.

2. Reinforced Wrist Cuffs
Prevents sand, silt, and irritants from entering your sleeves—especially useful for hull cleaners. It also protects your dive watch from rubbing and improves seal stability.

3. Boardshort Connector
Keeps your top from riding up during long dives, scooter work, or tank-less surface-supplied jobs. A small detail that changes everything.

4. Black With Yellow-Gold Print
A clean, professional colourway created for divers who work—not just pose. The design has already received praise from commercial divers who tested the final sample.

Made for All Divers—Commercial & Recreational

Although built specifically for commercial divers, this rashguard naturally benefits anyone who spends long hours in the water:

• Recreational divers who want neck and wrist protection.
• Swimmers who prefer a durable, long-lasting rashguard.
• Surfers and snorkellers who want UPF 50 sun protection.
• Commercial divers under overalls, wetsuits, or on its own in warm water.

It’s versatile—but always maintains the ruggedness required for professional work.

The Hardest Part? Getting It Perfect

Designing something for commercial divers is never simple. We went through multiple manufacturers, reworked stitching patterns, tuned the wrist diameter, adjusted the neck height, and tested different fabric densities.

The final result took time, mistakes, revisions, and real underwater punishment.
And that’s why we’re proud of it.

Built for Divers Who Need Their Gear to Last

Most rashguards on the market today are made for surfing or casual beach use—soft, thin, and not built for rough underwater work. Cheap ones lose shape, snag easily, or wear out at the neck and wrists.

The Sons of Triton Commercial Diver Rashguard is different:
• Engineered for durability, not fashion.
• Purpose-built for professional underwater work.
• Designed to protect, not just look good.
• Tested in real operations, not in a showroom.

This is the first turtle-neck commercial diving rashguard of its kind—created because divers like us needed something better.
