Are these HeatGear Compression products good for water (i.e diving, swimming, etc.). I can't tell how they compare to nylon/spandex rash guards

These are to wear under a bullet proof vest to keep you dry or for working out

I would buy the covers just for swimming. These don't work very good. I just saw plastic covers by the swim stuff at Target.

Are you wearing it under water? Maybe sweat proof but, not water proof. They run great but, they don't last. These things are a dime a dozen, like most of them. Start out great but, kick out when you really need them. And, it doesn't matter how much you spend. I've spent anywhere from 30.00 to 150.00. I still got the same amount of life span out of each. Not one said water proof.

I am a certified diver and no, they do not fit well enough for snorkeling. You need booties, their great for tube float fishing and wearing over waders. They are extremely light weight and great for the right sport.

I cannot directly answer your question but I can assure you that these are waterproof. They are made of the material that dry suits are (not to be confused with wet suits).

Hi Julie, this is a fantastic swim mask, but it would be terrible for snorkeling. I completly agree with the other answers.Good luck.

i did 50mins on my exercise bike, sweat was trapped underneath.. it's quite funny, i could see a bubble of water(sweat) so i think if the seal is good, you should be ok swimming

Patti, hi,No.DO NOT USE THEM.FOR SWIMMING!! I got them.for jogging, dancing and indoor gym workout. I tried them once at the beach and poof... they went dead. so had to get a new pair. but for swimming my friend got me JLAB they work perfectly for swimming and somewhat like earplugs in the water. so for swimming buy JLAB check right here on Amazon. have fun Patti.

Hmm, I know it has kept me plenty dry, warm, and not sweaty and I have given it plenty of action, including violent swims. The neck gasket does leak a tiny bit, which happened a couple of weeks ago at Kilchis River on the SHORE when I got wave after wave of heavy rain dumped on me for a good half hour. Get one of those LL Bean fleece fishing jumpsuits for $50-60 to wear under it, and a sweatshirt to wear between it and the drysuit if it's cold outside, and you will be fine.

It is as easy (or difficult) as other rash guard. I prefer to wear a very tight shirt beacuse I do not want that water get in while I am swimming. The fabric is great and it is easy to put on if you compare it with a neoprene one.

I'm not a diver,and have only used this product on water filter O-Rings, but I can't imagine there being a better or cheaper product to preserve/lubricate/ rubber that is exposed to water......and a little bit goes a looooong way. I would recommend trying it, and at worst you'd have a less expense product for maintenance and storage of your gear...I believe it'd make an excellent seal though......and regarding deterioration of the rubber/silicone mask, silicone grease should be the lesser of other petroleum evils.

I would NOT recommend swimming. These will absorb water which is probably what you would like to avoid. (I tried it! ) I think Amazon has some pretty decent swimming plugs. Hope this helps! :o)

It is watertight, but unlike nylon it is breathable. I use this product for fishing, sport events, and cold weather (snow blowing in snow storms). In each situation it repels water and wind keeping me dry and warm, yet allows air to flow. I used to wear bulky coveralls for snow blowing, no more, a pair of togg pants over my jeans and jacket over long john shirt and hoodie and im goood to go. Cold wind cut thru coveralls, put a pant or jacket over them and youll feel the difference. Lightweight too!

They are fairly waterproof, but I was only using them to keep a surgical wound dry in the shower. A lot of movement, such as swimming, would probably cause it to loosen. Hope this helps.

I don't know . I use those for my swim goggles only . I noticed however that my goggles will get foggy ( despite the Artificial spit) if i will shower with hot water before entering the pool ( simulating the body heat scenario). It is a good idea - I may try it in the winter.

They did not keep my feet warm in 45 degree water. I bought a pair for surfing and my feet were freezing. The seams are not glued so water moves through them freely. In my opinion, they must be for protective wear such as for diving in warm water.

My husband and I wear ours daily in our pool. If we "should" I can't answer. However, I will say they do fine with our water exposure.
