Most wet suits are made of closed cell neoprene foam rubber faced with lycra on the inside and nylon on the outside. Dry suits may also be made with closed cell neoprene foam rubber but there are also suits made from solid plastic and rubber. A popular and rugged dry suit material is called Trilam because it consists of three layers, the outer layer being durable nylon. Dry suit seals are made of latex. The seals prevent water from running up your sleeves and down your neck.

How the old diving suit or standard diving dress were made and what material were materials used?

The old diving suit, or standard diving dress, was typically made from heavy canvas or rubberized fabric to provide durability and waterproofing. The suit featured a helmet made of brass, which was bolted onto the suit and equipped with a glass faceplate for visibility. Inside, it had a weighted belt for stability underwater, while a supply of air was provided through a hose connected to the surface.
