HOG Predator Drysuit - Material?

[Scuba_Kim]

Does anyone know what the HOG Predator drysuit is made out of? I know it's a bilaminate, but I was wondering if this includes neoprene. My husband is allergic to neoprene so he needs to avoid it.

Also, is this suit unisex?

Bump I'm curious too.

You might post this, or have a Mod move it, over in the EDGE-HOG manufacturer forum. Chris and Jack from EDGE-HOG answer questions there on a regular basis. What I can tell you is that it is made from the same "HOGSTRETCH" material that they use for the EDGE suit. The material was just released for use this past summer and is supposed to be very flexible and durable.

If I'm not mistaken unless something has changed the HOG Predator is basically a re-branded USIA Techniflex (which is an awesome suit).

I dont know if USIA did any other custom modifications for HOG. It's urethane inside. The neck warmer on mine is neoprene I believe but you can get it without that.

May also want to try contacting USIA to ask more about the materials it's made out of.

Nope, no neoprene It is a 4 way stretch material that really is comfy!!

Not neoprene from what I understand. pm cavemd. he has extensive knowledge of the hog drysuit. he has been diving one for quite some time and keeps in touch with Chris.
