Natasha & I both have Kokatats - new enough that warranty hasn't been an issue. My assessment, after long & thoroughly anal pre-purchase research, was that Kokatat charge a premium but are second-to-none on both quality and customer service. A friend in Connecticut has just had a Kokatat suit replaced free, after sending it in for well-deserved repair. Just my two cents and YMMMV. Don't even think of not getting the integral feet and the pee-zips for any day-on-the-water-activity. Perhaps, if your paddles will be very short (ie: 1 hour rolling sessions), you could save the $; but you may still regret not having them both.
