I need to consider many aspects before I can determine the thoroughness of my examination. Can you confirm that Mares Pure Vision Mask is really capable of reducing water disturbance in your field of vision? One more thing, do you have to spend more to get the skirt size to be better right?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for choosing the Mares Pure Vision Mask. I’m happy to help you with your questions. The Pure Vision mask has been designed to reduce water disturbance in your field of vision, allowing for a clearer view while diving. The mask features a patented lens that minimizes the effects of the face seal on the field of vision, giving divers an unobstructed view. However, the effectiveness of the mask in reducing water disturbance can vary depending on the individual’s face shape and size. As for the skirt size, you can actually get a custom-fit skirt attachment for an additional cost. This allows you to get a better seal and reduce any leaks. But, I recommend checking our website or visiting a local dive shop to get a better understanding of the prices and options available.

I’ve been using this mask for a while now and I’m really happy with its performance. The crystal-clear vision is amazing and the buckles are super convenient. Would highly recommend!
Kevin Choo –
Really has been great so far. Like many underwater divers, the quality leaves some room for improvement, but I don’t see it being a problem at the moment. Perhaps can work on the better seal at the edge of the mask.
Sophia Tay –
I used this mask for my last few dives and I must say it was a huge improvement from my previous mask. The EZ adjust buckles made it so easy to get a comfortable fit every time. The standard size skirt was a bit loose on me, but overall it doesn’t bother me too much.
Dominic Koh –
Been looking at masks for weeks but couldn’t find anything remotely close to this guy. Great purchase did exactly what I wanted. Made my snorkeling trip a blast. The built by Mares is beautiful. Comfortable too. Not affected while diving. Would like to try other gear of theirs.
Kevin Tan –
Overall, I would say that this mask is a solid choice for scuba diving. The only thing that’s keeping me from giving it 5 stars is that it can be a bit pricey
Jordan Leong –
Amazing underwater experience recently with the Mares Pure Vision Mask. The quality just surpasses everything else we tried. Not even a minor regret on the purchase.
Allyson Tan –
I’ve been using this underwater mask for a month now and it’s been fantastic. Best thing about it is the super-clear vision which is perfect for a beginner like me. EZ adjust buckles were very convenient to use. The only thing I’m still adjusting to is the mouth dryness issue. Definitely going to get more comfortable with it.

Is the standard size skirt available in different sizes? I’ve got a pretty wide face and I want to make sure it fits properly.
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for reaching out to us about your concerns with the Standard Size Skirt of our Mares Pure Vision Mask. The Standard Size Skirt is designed to fit a majority of divers, but we understand that facial structures can vary. While it’s not an adjustable skirt, we do offer a skirt upgrade to a “Microskirt” which provides a more customizable fit. Would you like more information about this skirt upgrade?
Ethan Wong –
Is this mask suitable for long dives? I’ve heard it can fog up if the water is cold.
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for taking the time to consider the Mares Pure Vision Mask for your long dives. Regarding fogging, you’re right that it can be an issue in cold water. However, our mask is designed with Anti-Fog Coating on the lenses, which helps to reduce fogging. Additionally, the EZ adjust buckles make it easy to adjust the fit to your face, minimizing the risk of water entering and causing fogging. If you’re planning to dive in cold water frequently, we recommend trying the mask in a pool or calm water to ensure a proper fit. Have you considered using any anti-fog agents or wipes to help keep your mask clear?
Stephan Wong –
Overall, this mask is decent. It’s useful for me while snorkeling on my trip to Malta. Minor annoyances about the metal corroding. Not too complicated to assemble and disassemble but we could improve the manufacturing to fix that. Not expensive for what you are getting and I appreciate that.
Emily Low –
What’s the difference between this mask and the previous model? Has there been any significant changes?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for taking the time to review our Mares Pure Vision Mask, Emily. The main difference between this mask and the previous model is the introduction of EZ adjust buckles, which provide a more secure and adjustable fit. Additionally, the standard size skirt has been optimized for improved comfort and reduced water entry. While there haven’t been any significant changes that impact the overall performance, these updates aim to enhance the user experience. If you have any further questions or would like to know more about the mask’s features, please don’t hesitate to ask. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to hearing from you!
