(Putting my two cents in)
Rob, thinking outside of the box, I have seen Mo2vation in his Chuck Taylors in his DS, since you are moving toward your DS, you can start with the chuck taylors and neosocks and segue into dry diving.
BTW, Ken looks slickety cool in his Chucky T's

I am a huge fan of seasoft boots, they're more comfortable than my regular shoes, and they have a sturdy sole.

Another tip - before you buy, see that you're satisfied with how the boots fit in your fins.

Hey Robert,
When I got my drysuit I had to get bigger fins so I decided to upgrade to a hardsole boot for diving wet. They're seasoft and I love them. There was no way around upsizing my fins so keep that in mind when it comes to your future boot and or drysuit putchase. When I get home tonight I'll let you know what model and maybe take a pic of my boots, they're awesome!
Ken, great idea about the socks, you got a local spot to pick these up at?
Good luck!

I realize I forgot to mention in my original post that I'm going over to the dark side, DIR (jeeez dudes, there's nothing in the book about NOT using color!), and will be purchasing new, larger fins.
Thanks for the suggestions folks! Looks like the Seasoft has the most proponents here so now I just have to find a reasonably local dealer.
Cheers!

I got mine from Hollywood Divers, I can't remember what I paid for them, I know it was reasonable.
Robert, DIR? Not you too! I'm going to be the only sane diver left by years end. Hahaha, j/k, I wish you the best!

New socks are THE Secret weapon for diving wet.
1) makes getting into the suit a breeze
2) Keeps yo footies warmer ny a factor too large to measure
3) Enables you to stand on the cold street witout freezing the footies

These are the ones I use. I use them when Kayaking, I use them when wet wading for trout, I use them for warm water snorkling, I use them every time I'm not diving dry.
They completely rule.
Ask 'Chica. She's forgotten hers a time or two when we're buggin... and she was chillin without them.
On the SeaSoft thing - these guys are the real deal. In my opinion, they make the most durable, comfortable, finest wet gloves on the planet. I love them. Their mask strap - Love it. Their weights - Love them. Quality organization. I've never seen their boots, but I bet, judged on the other SS stuff I've owned, they're not cheap - but they are very high quality.

Thanks for the link Ken! I assume you use the 3mm? Are they stretchy?
