Gloves

Well I finally bought a drysuit, Whites Catalyst. My question is with gloves. Which is better and why, dry gloves or wet gloves? Also, what are some good dry gloves to go with the catalyst?

This is a matter of personal taste. As a rule wet gloves fit more snugly and you retain more agility and sense of touch in your fingers. Dry gloves are warmer but it can take a long time to adjust to wearing them because your sense of touch can be severely impaired.

I can't really answer this part of your qustion. I'm a little out of touch with what's on the market at the moment and generally I 'roll my own' dry gloves and use an after market ring system to put them on my suit.
