I was looking at various sites on the Internet and ran across "X-Shorts with pockets" on the retail sections of fifthd.com and zerogravity.com.mx.
On the surface of things, it looks like they would be handy if you were travelling and using different exposure suits for different climates. It seems that even though your suit may change, your placement of gear would remain identical.
What is the feeling about these X-Shorts with Pockets among DIR divers? What is the official stance from DIR about these shorts and do they fit in as part of the "holistic" philosophy?
I'm considering getting a pair, but thought it would be prudent to consult the collective wisdom board first. I'm planning on taking DIR-F, but need to get a few things done before then.
Also if you've used them, what are your impressions of them?
Thanks.
