Lake City, FL - April 07, 2008 - Dive Rite is launching a new line of harness accessory pockets that build upon daisy chain technology from the backpacking industry. Daisy chains are small webbing loops sewn to form a chain and mounted onto backpacks for attaching carabineers and accessories. Dive Rite has taken this concept one step further by developing unique sheaths for Z Knives and Trauma Shears that will clip into daisy chain loops located on the outside of the pockets.

But that's not all. Inside each new pocket is a 36-inch looped lanyard to clip reels, lights, slates and line markers into. No more fumbling for the right tool, simply pull out the lanyard and select the tool needed, then replace the loaded lanyard. Tools remain secure and cannot mistakenly fall out of the pocket.

Coordinating with our daisy chain pockets are new cutting device sheaths for Z Knives, Cold Water Z Knives and Trauma Shears. Using heavy-duty Annex clips, each sheath simply snaps through the daisy chain loops and holds the sheath in place. Sheaths can be worn vertically or horizontally and will also attach to cylinder hose retainers, wrist straps or a chest strap. A quick-release Velcro lanyard attached to the tool and sheath keep tools from slipping.

Dive Rite's new pocket line up includes two vertical, waist-mount Bellows Pockets, one with Velcro closure, the other with a zipper closure; a horizontal Bellows Pocket with two zipper compartments and a redesigned Thigh Pocket with proprietary leg band material that grips the exposure suit and eliminates slippage.

All pockets and sheaths are made in the U.S.A.
