5mm wetsuit recommendations?

(1/2) > >>

We are in the market for 5mm wetsuits & of course want to make the best choice possible.  We really got stung with our Pinnacle Merino 3mms -- had to send them for seam repair after only a couple of years, & 3 dive trips later they are unravelling again (& we are careful divers who don't hit the coral!).  Price is not an issue if we can get really good quality.  We're looking for durability & stretchiness.  Any comments will be really appreciated!

I have a Bare Elastek 3MM and 5MM and love them both. Mine are only a year old but my husband has had his for 2.5 years. They've held up well and are extremely comfortable.

Thanks! I will check them out :-)

I am also in the market for a 5mm wetsuit.  I have had a 2 piece 3mm wetsuit from Atlan that latest for 12 years - approx 500 dives.  I am in email correspndance with Atlan now to learn more about their FT-5 wetsuit.  So you may want to take a look at what Atlan has to offer.

Thanks!  We're still looking, nowhere near a decision.  I hadn't heard of Atlan & will check them out!
