When you think Body Glove, you immediately think Missouri, right? Although the South Bay region of Los Angeles is actually considered the home of Body Glove, the long story of the company actually traces back to a farm near Booneville, Missouri. It was there that founders Bob and Bill Meistrell taught themselves to swim and by age twelve had used their imagination to rig a makeshift diving bell out of a tin can and descended into the depth of the farm pond. This love for the water eventually lured the brothers to Manhattan Beach as teenagers in the 40s.

Bob and Bill instantly took to the ocean, joining other pioneers of California surfing including the legendary Dale Velzy and Greg Noll to form the Manhattan Beach Surf Club. Cementing their credentials as true watermen, Bob and Bill became L.A. County Lifeguards, then scuba divers, then vital participants in the First Los Angeles County Underwater Instructors Course (UICC) - joining the first group in the world to become certified scuba instructors.

Together, they borrowed 1800 dollars and bought out Hap Jacobs to become partners with Bev Morgan in 1953 and develop Dive N´ Surf into southern California´s premiere retail store dedicated to surfing and diving, while continuing to surf every day, lifeguard, and operate a commercial diving business. They eventually, classes and apparel at multiple locations and thereby create a southern California retail institution.

Reviewer: Mary Beth Murphy on 1/16/2007

Thank you notes from my nephews in Rocklin CA - Ryan (Age 10) Dear Murphy family: Thank you so much for the swimming shirt(Body Glove Lycra Long Sleeve Skin)for Christmas.

Body Glove 6oz. Basic Lycra Short Sleeve Shirt Reviews

Reviewer: Eliza F. on 7/30/2007

This was just what I was looking for - Being fair-skinned and planning on spending all of the 4th of July on the beach in San Diego, this top was perfect. Its light weight, a light color that doesnt heat up in the sun and it looked great on me. But it also gives a little bit of warmth in the chilly ocean water. I slipped it on once I felt my upper body getting burned and it kept me comfortable and crisp-free the rest of the day. The sizing chart on line insured a terrific fit and the cap sleeves kept my shoulders from burning without giving me that "Farmers tan" line above my elbows (or the back of my neck). I didnt have to feel slick from applying sunscreen several times each day. This was exactly the top I needed. And a great... View Full Review

Body Glove 0.5mm Bali Diver Jumpsuit Reviews

Reviewer: Jean L. on 12/9/2008

Body Glove wet suit - 1mm - Nice suit, light enough for Tropical diving but also works great under a 7mm suit for colder diving. I live in the northern climates so it works good as additional protection and makes it easier to get the 7mm suit on. I was recently certified for open water diving and the water was very cold here in September and October - wish I had this suit then. I did one other dive after certification, before I left for vacation and this suit made a big difference, especailly since the rental suits were old and ill fitting. On vacation this suit was easy to get on and off and also worked good when snorkeling. The suit came in as a 12 or extra large - I do not normally wear a 12 but something... View Full Review

Reviewer: Alexander N. on 9/19/2008

Great Booties - These body glove booties are going to keep me surfing through the winter. Surfing NYC beaches in the winter is no joke, and its not only the cold that these booties will be protecting me from. Ill be nice and encapsulated from head to toe and wont have to worry about jellies, medical waste, or any other instrument of bodily harm. That security will allow me to really enjoy the ride. I got the booties from the "used" section but they might as well be new. They definitely havent been used by anyone before. Perhaps they were sitting in some shop for display. Overall its been a great deal. Delivery straight to my office, great price, and the product is as good as youre going to get... View Full Review

Body Glove 3mm Barrier Front Zip Vest Reviews

Reviewer: Sandra F. on 11/16/2008

Simply Perfect For Tropical Diving - I bought this as a replacement for the same Body Glove vest, which I had been wearing for at least 10 years (the neoprene was getting compressed from many, many hours underwater). When I shopped for a new one, I looked at other brands, but couldnt beat the pricing, styling, and fit of the Body Glove (who needs fancy gold linings for a zip-front vest?). Its easy on, easy off, dries quickly, and it keeps me warm without the hassle or buoyancy of a full wetsuit. Its also well designed to fit a womans figure. I wear it as a layering piece, under a polar fleece or polypro suit - or its great over a Lycra skin. For some extra warmth on those hour plus tropical dives, this vest is simply.......

Body Glove 1.5mm Power Paddle 2 Tip-Less Webbed Gloves Reviews

Reviewer: gregory nenson on 7/20/2008

the good and bad parts - I use these swimmers gloves for surfing and they are a great asset for paddleing out and catching waves, but the velcro that keeps the gloves tight to your wrist doesnt stay together very well, which fills the glove with water and adds weight to your hands. If it were not for this one flaw these gloves would be perfect.

Body Glove 3mm Flipper High-Top Socks Reviews

Reviewer: David Selwyn on 9/29/2008

Every bit as good as represented - I bought these to either wear alone with fins in warm waters. I hope to try them this way next January in Belize. But also to beef up the warmth of my Body Glove Booties for cold waters around the San Juan Islands in Washington. I sized the socks one size smaller than the booties (from the same company). The fit turned out perfect. The socks slide on and off surprisingly well and swimming in a local lake with both, my feet were plenty warm. The socks have just enough "sole" material to give you just a bit of shape but not so much that they cant still be called a sock. Im happy with them and SCUBA.com was great as always getting the items to me quickly.

Body Glvoe 6 oz Deluze Lycra Long Sleeve Skin - Loved the product - Used it in Newport, Rhode Island where the waves are big. Glove felt great. Was worried it would be hot, but it wasnt. It kept me protected from the sun. I stayed at the beach over 6 hours and did not get burned. Great product.
