Questions like this rarely will get you the information you seek,but personal testimonials. The reason why is most drysuit owners have't used many different brands for comparison,and when someone puts down 1k to 2k rarely will they say they have a piece of junk. I have owned or used 6 different dry suits,and that being said the best advice is talk to the people who repair drysuits for a living. They will see all the suits at their worst,and see how they are constructed. I have known Steve Gamble (gamblescuba.com) for over 10 years and asked him the question what was the best suit out there and he was pretty poingnant with some great observations. I asked him about the worst,and he showed me 3 racks of suits for repair,and I noticed several of the same manufacturer.
Of course, that might mean that that particular manufacturer's suits are more popular, so there are just more of them out thereI asked him about the worst,and he showed me 3 racks of suits for repair,and I noticed several of the same manufacturer.
