Tractioncontrol, let me try to offer some useful comments as a change of pace to this thread. First I recommend you do invest in a prescription mask. Perhaps two. It makes a HUGE difference in your diving comfort as well as enjoyment. Next, don't limit your shopping to on line. There are many advantages to buying from a lkocal shop, including on site servicing and repairs, opportunity to try gear ( in some cases) before making a purchase, and possible discounts if you take any classes or travel with the same dive center. Next, don't go cheap on equipment on which you life, to say nothing of enjoying a dive, will depend. Finally, rtemeber you are buying diving equipment, not a halloween costume. I prefer black to bright colors, but function trumps fashion. Now, do you own shopping, talk to some local dive shops, take everyone else's input for what it is - a biased personal opinion, and good luck!
