Quality Issues with Bare Wetsuits

[_anak_pulau_]

GREETINGS!

Has anyone come across or heard of issues with Bare wetsuit quality. No doubt it is extremely warm, comfortable and easy to don and doff, but within the first day of using it (for 2 boat dives), there were scuff marks around the back (around the sacrum/tail bone area, as well as armpits. After a second double boat dive, new scuff marks continue to form. This is quite disappointing considering how much a Bare wetsuit actually cost.

Happened to my buddy who contacted Bare and Bare couldn't give any less ****, calling it "wear and tear". Definitely would not recommend, in fact, would strongly discourage anyone to get a Bare, if this is supposedly the "norm".

I noticed this as well and the scuff marks appear but they don't seem to actually get worse. I had the same thought of being really disappointed but then 40 dives+travel later yeah I can see the first scuff marks but the wetsuit itself hasn't lost any integrity and I haven't seen new marks form or the marks get any worse.
