Rental suits usually have a high concentration of urine in them!

(things that make you go hmmmmm!)
 
I had it happen to me everytime I wore my 2pc. 6.5mm (which diving deep in quarries, is a must) on my legs & thighs. However it did not happen when I dove in my 3mm. It may be differnt chemicals used in the manufacture of the suit, as the suits were made by different manufacturers. I don't know. I never did anything about it, just grinned, scratched & bore it.
 
I guess you weren't "lucky" enough to have a full body rash. Those itchy 'tender spots' were torture!

Trilam drysuit = good!
 
ha 2 students in 27 years with neoprene allergy - bad juju - see a doc to see if anything can be done; or buy a drysuit
