Flippers
Scuba divers do not wear heavy metal suits. Perhaps you are referring to the bulky looking Mark 5 dive gear with the large helmet and the breast plate that weighs 64 pounds. Suit weighs 25 lbs. Each shoe weighs 25 lbs. Oh, the weight belt the diver wears is 60 to 80 lbs. All this weight is needed to get the diver to sink from all the air inside the helmet.
Always wear flippers and a mask
Diver Suits
Scuba divers typically wear a wetsuit or drysuit to insulate and protect them from cold water, along with a buoyancy control device (BCD) that helps regulate their buoyancy. They also use a scuba tank for breathing compressed air, a regulator to control air flow, and a mask to improve visibility underwater. Additional gear may include fins for propulsion, a weight system for stability, and safety accessories like a dive computer or dive knife.
