1) DUI Thinsulate 400
2) DUI Thinsulate 200

Yep. But I dive a High Tide compressed neoprene, so my undergarment needs are quite different. Sorry I can't help.

What do you use? I think CF200 is also compressed/crushed neoprene.

cf200 is crushed neoprene and doesn't really offer a significant advantage in warmth over a compressed neoprene suit. Basically a crushed cf200 is kinda like a 2mm full wet suit thickness wise. Pretty cool technology though IMHO.

That said, I personally would go with the 400g as I get cold all the time. I used to use a 300g thinsulate AND 300 g of fleece undies at the same time with my tls 350 and i was cold after 20 minutes below 60 degrees but that is just me. Do you have room in your dry suit for all those undies?
