It's a membrane.

I'm sure you'll love it.

What's wrong with the neo suits anyway?

Err, I never said I was wrong!

My epiphany came when I tried Di's suit over the weekend. I was warm enough (albeit I had three layers of 4th Element on) but most important I could do shutdowns and I liked the front loading zip. To be honest, if I could have got a telescopic compressed neo in a front loader made by a manufacturer I wanted, I would have gone for that. Richard was reluctant to do a front-load neo and I had decided a front-loader was what I wanted.

The extras I went for are: two bellows pockets, valve comfort patch, warm neck, extra zip cover, neo boots and reflective tape.

Well done.

Are you having neo seals? I can highly recommend them for their sturdiness and warmth. I looked at mine at the weekend and realised that I would have needed at least 3 new neck seals in the last couple of years if mine had been latex.

Still... it is now all blackwitched up and good for another year

Nah, I toyed with the idea but went for latex in the end. It's bad enough I lose half my hair with a latex neck seal. I'd probably end up bald with a neo!

wish I'd gone for the warm neck option and I only had one pocket plus a shears pouch but other than very similar, great suits and great service.
