Question Upgrade Bare SB Midlayer in Monterey to ??

[edgrimley]

Looking for a fresh experience from anyone who has upgraded the Bare SB Midlayer for Monterey, California (50F / 10C) diving. Been on the same midlayer for 10+ years and I think periodic washing and use (and age) has me ready to move up to something more modern that's warmer and thinner. My buddy has the 4E Arctic and likes it. My LDS likes it as well. He seems to get chilly after 45 min or so or temps below 50, as I do. I see the Halo ($$) Waterproof Meshtec and Santi mentioned often.

Anyone have experience upgrading from the SB at those temps?

Thanks!
Eric

I used to use a SB Midlayer, I now use a BZ400 and a heated vest.
