On the subject of gloves, I actually tried gluing spare latex wrist gaskets to a favorite pair of heavy-duty blue dishwashing gloves, to extend their usefulness later into the winter. I found that, though my hands remained dry (with polypro liners) the gaskets cut off so much circulation that my hands became cold and very numb. I'm now wondering if my regular drysuit gaskets are causing a similiar loss of circulation...I have fairly slow circulation and low blood pressure and tend to get cold extremities anyway. I'm stretching my gaskets, but I wonder...has anybody else had this problem? I'm looking into pogies...
