If you want to save a bunch of bucks, consider buying a dry suit made in the UK. I bought my trilaminate from Polar Bears in Launceston, Cornwall. Total cost with shipping $700.00 They sent it to me as a "repair" to avoid the VAT and import tax. Suits in the UK are more competetively priced because almost all their diving is dry suit diving and there are many companies in competition. Even DUI suits are much less than here in the US.
