Mako stuff seemed to have a following at a good price point. Would be curious to hear any further reviews.

If farmer johns are found to be cumbersome for swimming/fit/build, I recall hearing that some will cut off the the shoulder straps and/or mid-upper portion for better mobility/torso expansion.

I got the Stohlquist Men's Rapid Farmer John Wetsuit from Claveys' in Petaluma

nice fit, nice price, nice relief zipper

I'm happy.  I am a long time NRS fan though - can't go wrong with NRS - good stuff.

Yay Yamamoto neoprene

Bought the Isurus 4/3 front zip yesterday and after swimming 2 hours off of pleasure point was almost too warm on the swim in Peeled the suit and a lot of the interior was still dry

Still not what my old straight skin neoprene was but no more winter chill
