Fourth Element was founded in 1999 by Jim Standing and Paul Strike after they set out to improve cold-water diving gear. The UK-based brand began with thermal diving apparel and has since grown into a respected name in water sports.
The company is known for both its gear and its environmental focus. Their product line includes the Seeker mask, tech fins, neoprene gloves, boots, hoods, and tech shorts. Many of these items incorporate recycled materials like ECONYL® yarn and REPREVE® polyester, and all packaging is either compostable or recyclable.
The Fourth Element mask collection, including the popular Seeker, offers precise optical clarity without unnecessary bulk. Their gloves and boots handle cold-water exposure with purpose-built thermal protection. GRITR Outdoors is proud to offer a wide selection of their products.
