I dive the NeoSport farmer John when not dry suit diving in waters from the low 50's. I'm a cold water wimp, but I'm comfortable enough diving this suit. I doubt I'd be as comfortable doing 2 or 3 dives off a boat in cold weather though.

Iirc, I got it from Leisure Pro for less than $200.

I was looking at those because the $120 price is looking pretty sweet to me. Tho adding additional lead is not something I would look forward to as I already have a heavy setup.
 
if you are an odd size, a used fusion drysuit might be a workable option since they fit a larger range. the design is annoying to some though as the inner bag has excess material.
 
I have been using the neosport 3mm for years and definitely happy with the quality for the price. Collar seems to get beat up first. I have had a 7mm henderson gold core for years. God I hate getting in and out of that sucker, but its warm for sure! For that price I'd give the neosport a go and maybe even toss in a vest for a little extra protection.
 
I have just ordered a 7mm night dive full wetsuit from TommyDsports in Florida. have a look at their website. As I have not received it yet I have no idea of the quality. I ordered from USA because large or thick wetsuits are getting harder to get in the UK, many are switching to drysuits.

I use the Xcel and love it also have it in a 3mm. My wife and son have the Pinnacle and both really like theirs.
