I bought one of these too, they are a fantastic bargain. I had the latex feet
fitted at a dive shop.  Very comfortable, brand new and (at the time) $90 US.


Non-breathable diving drysuits won't work very well.  Last fall I ran
across a person listing Canadian military surplus drysuits on ebay.
They are breathable (Goretex) and are in good condition.  They don't
come with booties or ankle gaskets so I purchase latex booties and
adhesive from OS Systems.  I used the suit all this winter and have
been very happy with it.  I just checked and they have several more
listed:

Usual disclaimers: I have no relationship with either the ebay seller
or with OS Systems --- just a satisified customer.
