Generally if its <10c im cold after 25 mins or so no matter what i wear

(Its an Extreme not an Extreme Plus).

Although i do tend to run my suit fairly squeezed for comfort reasons.



Correct - i also wear dry gloves and hate the cold. Although that photos is in a river which was 19c. The reason for the dry gloves was mainly for potential infection reasons not cold

In the carribean im freezing after 2 x 1hr dives in a 3mm full suit.
i was in my extreme on sat/mon last week in my 2.5 o'three the water was about 6/7 had around 45min to 1h each time with 3mm gloves on and i was ok but i think gary {warmwaterdiver} was cold well it was snowing
diving free speech :: View topic - stoney in the snow

i use to dive the severn /team and lug a fair bit the water was always warm
i used to use amara gloves from Poseidon they where good you could feel for the old cod bottles in the mud without getting cut
