Mares Star Liquidskin Low Volume Mask

Quick answer: The Mares Star Liquidskin is a low-volume mask for freediving, spearfishing and scuba, with Mares' patented bi-silicone Liquidskin skirt for comfort, durability and light weight. It comes in all black.

Why it's worth a look

Low volume means very little air to equalize and clear, which matters most on breath-hold dives and still makes scuba easier. The Liquidskin skirt uses two grades of silicone: a firmer part that holds the mask's shape and a softer part where it touches your face. That gives you a gentler seal without a bulky skirt. Low-volume masks sit close to the face, so fit varies more from person to person than with larger masks. If you have a wide face or a prominent nose, try it on before you count on it.

Fit check before you dive

Hold it to your face without the strap and inhale gently through your nose. It should seal without pressing at your temples or the bridge of your nose. Read How to Fit a Dive Mask. More options: Wide-Fit Scuba Masks for Larger Faces.
