White's Drysuit

Anybody know anything about these? I've seen divers in them at Haigh Quarry but haven't seen much else about them

I owned one, but it only lasted two years. By the end of the first winter I had to replace one wrist seal and spot glue the other. By the end of the second winter I had leaking wrist seals, neck seal and would have to replace the zipper. I had about 40 dives on the suit. I recommend DUI. Yes, they are more expensive. My first one lasted 12 years, then I had the Whites because of the deal the dive shop owner gave me. The second DUI suit I have had for two years now. The zip seals are fantastic.

I tried a catalyst 360 and like it. The suit appeared very durable but the price was just a little more than I was looking to spend. I think Whites is a good suit and but there are equal suits out there slightly cheaper. I ended up going with USIA and have no second thoughts on my decision.

I have the Aqua Pro. Now I'm not a 40 dive a year diver, but I've put a good 40 dives in 2 years. never had any problems and have just added dry gloves.
I love the suit and would get another.
