I have heard it is the equivalent of 2 mm neoprene because of the setup but I tend to doubt such claims. Whitewater paddlers have raved about it but they tend to be younger, warmer-blooded, etc. and usually are not in the water long. I have a pair of socks of the material...it seems fine in that application. ralph *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
