I am pleased with this brand which has 70-80% jel lining. Just all in the right places -- and much less than the other brands. It slips on easily. Worked well in 84-85 temp waters, surface temps 85-90 on deck. I was never too warm on deck, nor cold during or after diving in Coz or Cayman. Some divers in simple swim suits were obviously cold after first dive and severely shivering after second dive. Black and gold.
 
On the third week of diving (27 dives in 6 days on a liveaboard) and 35 total dives, the lining is peeling at ankles, shoulders, and axilla even though I am tall and thin.
It is easiest to put on over lycra skin, although it is not too difficult over bare chest and arms because I am 6'1' and 183#.
For $109-119 range it is ok, and comfortable in 78-84 F.
Rating: Good for a 3mm, but lining may last only a season.
