I have the (formerly know as) Gates (now Hunter) Pro VSN 1100. Lurvely suit. The material is strechy, light and flexible.

No problems other than Latex seals needed to be replaces after 2 years (they hadn't even given way yet they just looked a bit shody) and my LDS sorted it out. I haven't dived the new seals yet so i'm hoping they will be bone(r) dry.

All seams and zip still in excellent working order.

I think the non neopreme are more flexible and mobile.

Also, the Gates is all black which was a major part in the purchase, you gotta lood dead cool on the pier.

[just kidding about the last part]

MTM is worth the money! Cordura is VERY nice Loads of choices around - mine is a Gryphon, can't fault it really.

Thumbs up

Otter Britanic. Good suits, good service, they do MTM and you can pretty much choose what valves, boots, zips, pockets etc you want and they are good value for money. Nuff said really and good luck with your choice
