SANTI Men’s Drysuit Size Guide — cm
Size guide based on Santi sizing information.
All body measurements in centimetres (cm).
Santi men’s drysuit and undersuit body measurements for the E.Lite+ men’s cut.
How to measure for your Santi or Avatar drysuit
All body measurements in centimetres (cm). Use this measuring reference with the correct manufacturer table for your model and cut.
Before you start
Ask another person to measure you while you stand upright and look ahead. Wear thin, close-fitting clothing and use a soft tape marked in centimetres. Hold the tape against the body without compressing it. Record the actual body measurements; do not add extra room for an undersuit. Measure twice and resolve any difference before choosing a size.
Body measurements
- Height
- Barefoot, floor to the top of your head.
- Chest / bust
- Around the fullest part. Record breathing out and in.
- Waist
- For the men’s method, measure around navel level. For the women’s method, mark the natural waist with a narrow belt. Use the same marked line for back and side lengths.
- Hips
- Around the widest part of your seat and hips.
- Body trunk
- Start at the centre of the front neck base, take the tape down the front, between the legs through the crotch, and up the back to the prominent bone at the base of the neck. Follow the body contours. If measured in two sections, add them together.
- Inner arm
- With the arm extended straight out, measure along the underside from armpit to wrist. This is the inner-arm field in the size table.
- Bicep
- Measure around the widest relaxed upper arm. Tell your fitter if muscle flexion changes the measurement substantially.
- Forearm
- Around the widest part of your forearm.
- Inner leg
- Crotch to floor while standing barefoot.
- Thigh
- Around the thigh, 5 cm below the crotch.
- Calf
- Measure around the widest calf point. Keep this separate from calf height or the additional circumference taken 20 cm above the floor.
Additional fitting measurements
- Shoulder width
- Measure between the shoulder points across the back.
- Outer arm
- With the arm extended, measure from the back-neck bone across the shoulder to the wrist.
- Back length
- Measure from the back-neck bone down to the marked waist.
- Bust height and side length
- For fields on the women’s form: front neck base to bust point, and armpit to marked waist. Record these separately.
- Foot length
- Measure heel to longest toe while standing. Check both feet and record each in cm. Confirm footwear fit with the thermal socks you intend to use.
Check the fit with your diving layers
Try the suit with your intended undersuit and thermal socks. Check comfortable breathing, overhead reach, a shoulder hug and kneeling. Have your fitter check restriction, excess fabric, footwear and seals.
Avatar: choose from the model’s standard sizes. Santi: use the model’s size table; any modified or made-to-measure order needs the current manufacturer form and a dealer fitting. Measurements taken at home are a useful starting point, rather than a final custom-order specification.

SANTI E.Lite Plus Men's Drysuit
Base price: $5,480 AUD for the standard configuration. This drysuit is custom made to order. Optional extras cost additional and will be added separately. All sizes are currently out of stock.
The SANTI Elite Plus (E.Lite+) combines flexible ripstop trilaminate with tougher fabric in areas exposed to wear. Its telescopic torso, front entry and reinforced knees suit divers who want freedom to reach their equipment while carrying the pockets and fittings needed for recreational or technical diving.
Features and Details
- Flexible ripstop fabric through the upper body and selected leg panels, with heavier E.Lite fabric protecting high-wear areas.
- Trilaminate construction with a waterproof membrane between protective fabric layers.
- Telescopic torso and shaped cut help you bend, kneel and reach valves when the suit is correctly fitted.
- Front dry zip with an additional protective cover.
- Two thigh cargo pockets with internal retention points, plus internal suspenders with a small pocket.
- Kevlar knee protection. Seals, wrist rings and footwear are confirmed with your individual order.
- Inflation and exhaust valve selection is confirmed with your individual order.
- 75 cm medium-pressure inflation hose and a drysuit travel bag; confirm the complete order specification before manufacture.
How the Features Help
The lighter panels allow the suit to move with you, while the heavier panels protect areas that regularly contact equipment or the environment. The butylene layer forms the waterproof barrier; thermal comfort comes mainly from the undersuit and base layers you choose.
The zip cover helps protect the dry zip from contact and debris. Cargo-pocket retention points keep clipped accessories organised, and the telescopic torso provides room for movement without relying only on excess suit length.

Fit and Use
Compare your measurements with the model’s size guide and check the fit wearing the intended base layers, insulation and footwear. Reach overhead, bend and adopt your normal diving position without pulling tightly across the shoulders or crotch. Select the complete insulation system for your conditions, duration and personal needs; use a drysuit with appropriate training and the supplied instructions.
Materials and Order Options
Ripstop refers to the reinforcing weave in the fabric. The E.Lite+ uses different fabric weights across the suit to balance movement with resistance to wear. The weights above follow SANTI’s current model specification. Production details and fittings can vary, so we confirm the complete specification for your individual order.
Before manufacture, confirm the dry zip, valve selection, neck and wrist seals, hood, footwear and pocket arrangement. The displayed price covers the base configuration. Alternative seals, dry-glove systems, P-valves and other optional extras cost additional and are not automatically included. Your drysuit and undersuit should be fitted together.
Gear Care and Washing
Rinse the suit’s exterior with fresh water after each dive, paying attention to the zip, valve exteriors and areas that collect salt or sand. Clean the seals and wash the suit only using the method and cleaner approved by the suit manufacturer.
If the inside needs cleaning or has become wet, follow the manual for internal rinsing and drying. Dry the inside and outside completely in a shaded, ventilated place, supporting the suit on a suitable wide drysuit hanger.
Keep the dry zip clean and use only the zip maker’s specified lubricant and application points. Follow its required open or closed position for drying and storage, and avoid bending the zip sharply. Maintain latex, silicone or neoprene seals using the instructions for that exact material.
Do not machine wash, iron, tumble dry or use solvents or strong detergents. Store cool and dry away from sunlight, heaters and ozone sources. Inspect seals, seams, zip and valves before diving and follow the manufacturer’s service schedule.
