Salvimar suits vs Yamamoto suits
Looking for some input from anyone who has experience with both. I'm looking into a salvimar NAT suit but I know it isn't yamamoto rubber. How do their suits compare to those that use yamamoto? I'd like to know how durable they are and how the comfort compares.

If you have Yamamoto on a pedestal ...you are drinking THERE cool aid!

Re: Salvimar suits vs Yamamoto suits
The salvimar people would be well advised to say what material they use... we are not all looking for the same thing.
I use yamamoto mostly but I also need a compression resistant suit, so no yamamoto 39 or 45 (worse). There were yamamoto 20 suits from Picasso long ago. I now wonder how they would compare to Sheiko's compression resistant stuff or Heiwa SK... Life is full of needless mysteries... |

I had a NAT 3mm and it's the worst neoprene I have owned. It fit me like a glove when new, but after just a week doing 60-80ft dives in HI it got deformed and thin, then the leg cuffs got all shredded. It's sitting in my basement now, I should feed it to the sharks.
