In the late 1970’s, marine biologist Jeremiah Sullivan developed a flexible suit of armor for divers to wear while working around sharks. The suit has been referred to as the Metal Mesh Shark Suit, Chain Mail Anti-Shark Suit, Steel Mesh Shark Suit, etc. Its actual name is the NEPTUNIC SHARKSUIT. The technology Jeremiah developed and continues to advance is known around the world and has been instrumental in the development of the global shark diving industry.
His pioneering work with anti-sharkbite technology has set an unrivaled standard among those who must work and play under hazardous circumstances. For the past 30 years, Neptunic has participated in over 45 television and film projects, as well as museum and technology exhibits including the Museum of National History, the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Vitra Design Museum in Essen, Germany.
The next chapter of the Neptunic Sharksuits Brand Legacy has begun with the release of our new Watermen Collection and first non-sharksuit technical products. It is our mission to continue delivering products that can extend survivability while keeping YOUR style intact.
