Arvind Nair –
The material is very comfortable and fits snugly without feeling too tight. I wore it for two dives in Tioman, and it dried quickly between sessions, which I appreciated. The stitching feels solid, and there was no chafing even after hours in the water.

Thank you for your detailed feedback, Arvind. We’re delighted to hear the Subgear Daemon Short Sleeve performed well during your trip and provided you with comfort and durability throughout your dives.
Chia Wei Ling –
May I know if the S size would stretch enough to fit if I usually wear size M for other shirts? I’m concerned about fit for layering under my wetsuit.

Thank you for your question, Wei Ling. The Subgear Daemon Short Sleeve features a stretch fabric designed for a snug fit, but if you normally wear size M, we generally recommend choosing your usual size for comfort, especially if you plan to use it as a base layer.
Tan Jia Hao –
After six months of regular use in both saltwater and pools, the shirt still looks new and hasn’t lost its elasticity. The high-visibility logo makes it easy for my dive buddy to spot me.
