Leg Pockets on Drysuit
My drysuit has a large bellows pocket on the front of the thigh. It is not a whole lot of use really, as if i put anything bulky in there the velcro will not hold or i catch it on the wreck while ferreting and will either open the pocket or rip the suit! I can put my tables in there, but i want some more storage pockets as i dont fancy the christmas tree look.

I do need a new suit, but unless i have a considerable pay rise, this aint going to happen any time soon.

I was thinking about a DIY pocket, glued to the left thigh but on the outside of the leg, not the front.

Has anyone used a DIY pocket? Do they stay stuck over the seam in the suit leg, and deal with any flexing?

Or would you reccomend a pocket (such as the Narked@60 ones) to attach to the harness and bin the drysuit pocket idea?
