Review on NeoSport Wetsuits Premium Neoprene Full Suit by Jeff Bruno

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great wetsuit for the price. Thick enough for 50 degree water.

I recently purchased this wetsuit for use while abalone diving on the Northern California coastline. Having never been diving until recently, I wasn't interested in spending a ton of money on an expensive suit that I wasn't certain I would use very often.Based on the price and the decent reviews I went with the Neosport brand for the wetsuit, gloves, hood and boots. I couldn't be more pleased than I am with the products.The wetsuit is well constructed with sturdy seams. The zipper works very well and forms a nice tight seal. Fairly good fit around the neck, with just enough room to simultaneously wear a hood for added warmth. Foot and hand openings are snug, but gave little resistance while donning the suit. From start to finish it took me maybe 3 minutes to put the wet suit on.There is a very small amount of padding on the knees, although it is not nearly as much as on the more expensive suits. This hasn't turned out to be a big problem for me so far, as I haven't done much kneeling on them or crawling across many abrasive rocks.As to the thickness, I spent 90 minutes to two hours on consecutive days in 45-50 degree water with this suit without any problem. And this coming from a guy that hates cold water. I started to get cold at the end, but that is to be expected in water that cold for that long.In all, I am very happy with my Neosport wetsuit. it worked very well the first few times that I have used it and I have no reason to think that it won't last for many more.
