Aloha,
I am also in the market for a new 3mm full suit and have it down to HARVEY'S KOBALT PRO-FLEX SUIT or Henderson's Titanium Hyperstretch Aqua Suede, Henderson's Gold Core Neoprene or Henderson's Titanium Hyperstretch.
Read some descriptions on these suits and it seems the Henderson Hyperstretch is susceptible to runs, pulls and snags. The Henderson Hyperstretch Aqua Suede does not seem to have these problems probably because of the outer layer over the hyperstretch materia. At least that is the way I read it. Also the hyperstretch material is heat sensitive and you should always dry the suit in the shade and keep out of temperatures over 135 degrees F, so watch out placing them in a hot car or trunk.
One of my concerns with the hyperstretch material is just how much does it give. I see there is a post about altering a Henderson Hyperstretch suit by Garfish in this forum. Seems the arms are tight and the legs are long. My last suit bought was a Harveys 1mm. It is a little long but ok, I could have tried to get an XL Short but ran out of time before a trip. Harvey's does not say how much their Pro-flex suit stretches or if there is an outer layer to protect it from snags etc.
Would appreciate any and all input regarding personal recommendations of these 4 suits. I am leaning between the Harvey's Kobalt Pro-flex and the Henderson titanium hyperstretch aqua suede.
