Help identifying a wetsuit manufacturer

[seahunter49]

Hi all, this is my first post. My name is Dan, I'm a spearfisher living in Fort Lauderdale. I need your help identifying a wetsuit maker.

I purchased this wetsuit used while traveling. I have no idea who the manufacturer is and internet search has yielded no results. The suit is very well made and has a few details that I really like. The inside is not open cell but a kind of nylon that I've never seen. It effectively stops water circulation making this a very warm suit for its thickness which is around 3mm. Another unique feature is separate sleeves. Other than that it is a full suit with a zipper on the back. The outside is open cell which leads me to believe it is a suit marketed to freedivers. The stretch and durability of the neoprene is better than anything I've seen. I've had this suit for 5 years but it is probably older than that.

The only identifying marks on it are a logo and the word mission. Because of where I bought it I think it is probably a European manufacturer. I'd like to find out the manufacturer to buy another one like it. Thanks in advance for any help.

It's not a freediving suit, its an open-water swimming or triathlon suit. Can't help with the manufacturer though.

Welcome to DB Seahunter good to see you here too! I think the suit is made in Hialeah, "Trajes Apnea de Yeya" originally sold as Mision Inposible (in spanish), since the first ones were quite difficult for her to sew, she's still behind the Gustavo Machado Dealership, next to the panaderia&torta stand...rofl

Thanks Tone, I was really hoping somebody would know here about the wetsuit. I think the tip on it being a triathlon suit was right on, thanks chrismar. Yeya sends her love and told me to ask you when you'll be back for more "palo rumba"
