Add to cart and estimate shipping to where you are. It’ll take off VAT and show you USD price. If you’ve done that already that may be your USD price.

Simple neck is fine but could be troublesome if you plan to tuck your hood between the seal and the warm neck. All of that looks like a good suit. I'm not a fan of built in boots because I primarily shore dive. I'd rather a hole in the external boot and my neo sock stays intact than a hole in the built in boot and my foot now gets wet. Add in a coupons extra neck seals since they're dirt cheap from seaskin and you need 1 or 2 (all replaceable seals) in your save-a-dive kit. That price is in euros. Google the conversion.

I use a non bibbed hood with Drysuit and the simple neck doesn’t get in the way a bibbed hood just doesn’t go well with a dry suit at all IMO.

OK. The hood I now have is bibbed. Could someone provide a link to a non bibbed hood suitable for Dry Suit please.

I have a waterproof 7/5 and 5/3. They make a thicker one I think too. K01 makes good ones as well.

I don't like their web site. It won't quote me in USD and it won't allow me to go back and add more options unless I redo the whole order. They are not big on making changes or edits.

There are many wrist seals to choose from. Which one should I get as an extra ? I believe I know which neck seal to get. the HD Latex neck Seal.

I like silicone seals, but it's personal preference.

I prefer silicone seals on neck and wrist but that’s up to you.
