Zusammenfassung:A diver's suit (10), survival suit, or a suit worn to protect a worker from hazardous materials is provided with releasable water-tight seals (20) around the wrists, ankles and/or neck. Each releasable water-tight seal includes first (48) and second (52) complementary shaped annular interlocking seal members preferably extruded from a first polymeric material. Gaskets (48d,52d) made of a second softer polymeric material may be co-extruded with the first polymeric material and are compressed when the seal members (48,52) are mated in order to enhance the impermeability of the resulting seal to liquids or gases.
