Designed for free-diving and spearfishing, the Nano mask uses Cressi's new Integrated Frame Design in which the two-piece frame is recessed into the mask's skirt. The dual-lens mask is made to fit very close to the face, allowing divers to move through the water and maneuver in tight spaces with minimal hydro drag.

The MP206 Chameleon mask from IST Sports is made from a liquid-injected, hypoallergenic silicone that is soft and supple, resulting in a skirt that offers comfort as well as a watertight fit. Its raked inverted-teardrop dual-lens design delivers a wide field of view. To enhance the underwater view, the mask is fitted with a new type of ultra clear lens that allows for increased light transmission.

IST’s MP204 Spear mask, with its low-volume dual-lens design, provides an expansive view of the underwater world.

Cressi’s frameless mask is lightweight, low volume and offers a compact profile. Its flared single window lens provides good field of view, including over the bridge of the nose. The silicone skirt’s double seal system is effective in blocking water entry. Strap buckles attach directly to the skirt, allowing for lots of lateral movement, plus lets the mask fold flat for packing. The mask comes with a black or white skirt.

Dive Gear reviews from our recent equipment test at The Devil's Den in Williston, Florida.

It’s no fun diving with a mask that keeps filling with water every few seconds. So the first consideration when buying a mask is how well its skirt seals against your face. Despite claims to the contrary, no one mask fits all.
