I bought the Akona 7mm in 2006 for relatively infrequent cold water diving when visiting San Diego. I wear it with a 5/3mm hooded vest, 5mm booties, and 5mm gloves. The glideskin seals work well (a little soapy water helps with donning), the cut fits me very well. I have about 30 dives with the suit and I'm quite comfortable at the usual water temp of 52 degrees or a little greater. I've dived a couple of times at 48-49 degrees and got a bit cold by the end of the dive. I'm happy with the suit, especially at what I paid for it. The older model is available widely for less than $200, a newer model appears to be about $100 more. Good luck
