Back in the 60s folks used suits with smooth skin out, then they found the suit life could be greatly extended by adding an outer nylon coat/cover to it as well. (before that, it was skin/skin, something that'd tear way too easily).
You'll cut down on drag a little having a skin out suit, but you'll sacrifice durability.
The cut "should" be pretty decent, if you're an off the rack size.
It's a trade off, & it's also your call.
I'll stick with nylon 2 sides, as it better suits my style of diving.
Your mileage may vary.

What do you think of vulkanized drysuits then?

I do not really like the trilam suits they look bulky and awkward - but the vulkanized ones look more streamlined and more stretchy for free movement.

What do you think - not much difference in prece !
