Mares Introduces: SHE DIVES! Inspired by Women - Designed by Women - Dedicated to Women

Mares announces the introduction of a new collection of diving products specifically designed for women. SHE DIVES offers a complete range of products for the women's segment of the market.

Mares assembled an international team of women divers/designers to create a collection of products that are both better to dive with and beautiful to look at. SHE DIVES utilizes materials and designs that accommodate the many possibilities of a woman's figure. SHE DIVES allows women to dive more comfortably and more fashionably.

"We have listened to the many requests/demands from female consumers and dive shop owners," states Phil Mintz, Director of Sales and Marketing, Mares Diving Division of Head USA. "They consistently tell us that most diving equipment is designed for men, by men. SHE DIVES makes perfect sense considering the large percentage of female divers throughout the world."

Debbie Knight of KNIGHT DIVER AQUATIC CENTER, Edgewood Maryland states "Finally a manufacturer is catering to the woman diver."

The SHE DIVES Collection contains Suits, BC, Fins, Rash Guards, Masks and Snorkels. Additional products will be added later in 2006. The Mares District Sales Managers are out in the market place presenting the SHE DIVES collection now, for both Preview and Spring 2006 delivery.
