Mares Dragon SLS redesigned with the new SLS weight pocket system gives you a positive visual locking system that is easily released. The Aircell is designed to slide around the diver when inflated to provide comfot and stability. Has dragon winglets on the air cell giving it a hybrid design that floats you in the best position under water and on the surface.
The Slide & Lock System (SLS) weight pockets have sturdy zipper closures and are easy to slide into the BCD even when wearing thick gloves. The SLS is the safest system available and come in weight capacities of 9 lbs. and 13 lbs. (4 kg and 6 kg) weight capacities. SLS weight pockets will work with block or soft pouch weights.
Smart D-ring position with large AISI 304 stainless steel rings, 2 bent: 1 upper and 2 lower that are positioned intelligently within your downward vision also functioning as leverage while inserting the weight pockets. Comfort is paramount with the Dragon elastic cummerbund secures the BCD in place and adjusts for wetsuit compression at depth. BCD comes standard with 3 Pull-Dump/Overpressure Relief Valves, one incorporated into the top of the Ergo Inflator; one located on the right shoulder and a third is located on the rear lower right.
With torso adjustable 2" (50 mm) swivel shoulder straps, adjustable chest and waist straps, all equipped with squeeze-style" side release buckles for easy donning and doffing. Two angled high capacity cargo zippered pockets with stretch panels, position of the corrugated hose retaining epaulette can be adjusted, shaped shoulder straps adapt better to alleviate pressure on the shoulders, safety whistle and personalize label on weight pockets all makes this one great BCD

Bought one on eBay - used, but I love my Mares Dragon SLS BCD! It’s very comfortable to dive in, easy to maintain proper trim in the water, and super convenient with plenty of d-rings and pockets. It is pretty bulky, so it may not be the best travel BCD out there, but I can fit it and all my other gear (fins, mask, regulator bag w/ regulator, gloves, wrist computer, full 3mm wetsuit, towel, shore tarp, and accessories) for a dive in the Mares Cruise Deluxe bag comfortably.
This BCD really checks all my boxes for a jacket-style BCD. The wings on the back that hug the cylinder make you extra streamline, help with horizontal trim, and makes perfect buoyancy a breeze. It also has trim weight pockets if you need it. The padding in the back makes it extra comfortable outside the water as well. I love the SLS weight pockets that slide in and out with ease and it’s easy to secure.
I would highly recommend the Mares Dragon SLS Jacket BCD to anyone looking for easy, intuitive, and EXTREMELY comfortable diving.
Thank you for the great feedback
