This is a workhorse suit built for the kind of abuse that shreds lesser neoprene. While it prioritizes rugged protection and thermal retention over sleek aesthetics, the reinforced panels and clever zipper placement make it the ultimate choice for anyone who spends more time scraping against canyon walls than posing on a beach.
