Body Glove is an American brand of watersports apparel and accessories that was founded in 1953 by twin brothers Bill and Bob Meistrell.

They now make wetsuits, swimsuits, clothing, shoes, life vests, sunglasses, wakeboards, paddle boards, towables, backpacks, phone cases and snorkeling equipment.

Body Glove was started by identical twins Bill and Bob Meistrell in Redondo Beach, CA.

They were always interested in the water and even crafted a rudimentary diving helmet out of an oil can, tar, glass and a bicycle pump so that they could explore a pond on their family farm.

In 1953, Bill Meistrell went to Bedford, Virginia, where he found the insulation used in the back of refrigerators, neoprene, and the first practical wetsuit was born.
