I love my tri-lam Whites Catalyst with the soft sole feet for drying. I turn it inside out and wipe it with a towel and it's good to go. (It gets damp from persperation not leaking).
My old suits, Whites neoprene and later a crushed neoprene had molded boots, a more comfortable fit, but any moisture would eventually find it's way to the feet, and the boot took a while to dry. That being said, my favorite suit was the crushed neoprene suit, pros: warmer, less underwear, more comfortable feet. Cons: needed at least 10lbs more weight, heavier all round, less flexibility on the surface. Why did I get rid of it? it was stolen! May a thousand sea urchins smeared with stinging jellyfish infest the underwear of the individual who stole my suit.
I am happy with the Whites tri-lam though. I've owned 5 dry suits in my time underwater, mostly Whites.
