I think Scuba Toys sells Henderson's "Neo Sport" brand.

You can get one for about $80-$85.

At that price you can afford 3 suits in different thickness for the price of one up-scale Henderson.

I dive the Neo Sports and love them.

diver 85 - was it the shorty?

Also, just curious does anyone know the benefits of having a back zipper. It seems most suits are like that but it is more difficult than a front zipper. There must be a good reason why,


It was a shorty with back zipper........
 
Back zippers are FAR easier to get in and out of than front zippers. Think of it this way, it's easier to unzip and bend your body forward at the waist, hunching the shoulders to get the suit off your body than it is to unzip at the front and bend your back and shoulder backward.
 
Bare makes a less-expensive line that is good, I just bought a 3mil Akona that I am very impressed with and I dive with guys who wear the NeoSports. All are good suits if you find one that fits. Be sure that if you buy it online that the seller will allow you to exchange it for a different size.
