Hydroman — Frequently Asked Questions
How do I order the Hydroman?
Contact us via email or WhatsApp with the Hydroman model name. We'll guide you through material options, customization choices, and the measurement process. Every suit is built from scratch to your exact measurements.
What sizes does the Hydroman come in?
The Hydroman doesn't come in standard sizes. Every suit is custom-tailored to your exact body measurements. We provide a detailed measurement guide and can assist remotely or in person at our Hurghada location.
Can I customize the Hydroman?
Yes. Beyond the standard configuration, you can add upgrades like bronze zippers, silicone seals, QCS quick-change systems, P-valve installation, Kevlar reinforcements, custom stitching colors, and personalized embroidery.
How long does it take to receive my Hydroman?
Manufacturing takes 8-12 weeks from confirmed order. Each Hydroman is handmade in Italy by skilled artisans — there are no shortcuts in the production process. Shipping time to your location is additional and depends on your region.
How does the Hydroman compare to other Ugly Fish models?
The Hydroman is the foundation model — proven 360g Fothergill trilaminate with Cordura 1000 reinforcements. If you need more mobility, look at the Medusa. For maximum protection, the Stone (full Kevlar), Kryptonite (proprietary cut-resistant), or Ninja (dual-zone) are professional-grade options.
What seal types are available?
All suits come standard with latex wrist and neck seals. You can upgrade to neoprene seals for extra durability, silicone seals for longer lifespan and comfort, or a QCS (Quick-Change Seal) ring system that lets you swap seals yourself in the field without tools.
How do I care for and maintain my drysuit?
Rinse your suit with fresh water after every dive, especially in saltwater. Dry it fully before storage — inside and out. Wax the zipper regularly with the included zipper wax. Store the suit hanging up, away from direct sunlight and heat. Avoid folding for extended periods.
What warranty comes with the Hydroman?
The Hydroman comes with a manufacturer warranty from Ugly Fish covering defects in materials and workmanship. Sealachi provides full after-sales support including service, repairs, and warranty claims at our Hurghada service center.
