Thermoprene wetsuits

Does anyone have a Henderson Thermoprene wetsuit? I'm shopping for a wetsuit for my hubby for xmas, and was thinking about getting him the Neosport until I saw that ST has the Thermoprene on sale. We only dive once a year, so I wasn't planning to get him a top-of-the-line suit, just something to call his own so he won't have to rent them anymore.
Is the Thermoprene a lot nicer than the Neosport? Also, it looks like it comes in the blue & black as pictured, and also in black. Anyone know what the black one looks like? I don't know if I love the blue & black for him.
Thanks!!

My wife has a Thermoprene suit and really likes it a lot. I'll ask her to post here her thoughts as well. I remember her saying the the stretch was a lot nicer than some of the others.

My wife loved hers. I'm going to purchase a pair of 7 mm from ST because they are cheap now.

I have the Neosport 3m shorty and the Thermoprene 3m full. I haven't had any quality issues with either and would recomend both brands as good medium duty suits.

Did you order yours? I placed an order for one of these yesterday (after an enjoyable chat with a ST person) and I am anxiously waiting for it to arrive!!! I just know that I should have asked for 2 day shipping !!!!

My 7mil arrived last week, looks like a nicely made suit. Have to wait for awhile (-6 degrees outside) for the water to open up before I can try it.

do you think

that this suit ( in size xxxl ) would fit a 6'4'' 300 pound guy ?? Or would i be better off going for a dive skin which would probable stretch a bit more ?

I love mine-very comfortable and plenty warm. The Thermoprene is much more forgiving than the regular neoprene.
