    Dacor trilaminate drysuits for $399.00

    at Scubatoys under "closeouts". I got the ML ( hope it fits) but they still have a S and a L.

    I think the ML is almost too snug on the height, the upper body seems good, and the lower-torso/hips is way baggy. I haven't dove it or any other drysuit yet and am debating wether to sell it or alter it. I'm 5'11 and 165# with a 30"-31" waist. I was able to zip myself in a couple of times. Otherwise, the boots fit great, it has suspenders, neck warmer, Sitech valves, and seems really sturdy. Except for the baggyness, its a handsome suit.

    too sung on the height and baggy on the hips sounds good for me since I'm female and at the short end of most sizing charts! Maybe I'll risk it, I need to check their returns policy on closeouts.

    I'll check out the bare ones too.

    I was worried about buying dacor because of the companyn seeming to be going under/ not existing anymore, but I guess that is only really an issue for regs, I don't think a dry suit would be that hard to service.

    Thanks for the info

    I think most people service them themselves or send them to a drysuit repair place. If you can get one that fits for 400 bucks, you can afford a lot of service. Mine did not come with an inflator hose.
