XCS2 tech purchase

no it is not seamless. maybe in the sense that they are very well hidden, but how could you fashion a drysuit out of a single piece of neoprene.

As a matter of fact, we just got it back yesterday from BARE. They indeed found it was leaking through several of the seams. Hopefully the repairs took care of it all.

When using the word seams, it means a needle pinching 2 pieces of neoprene together.
They use a none stitching way to assemble the suit. So there are no hole where the water can come from.

potato, potahto. It is still a seam. A seam that is put together with neoprene adhesive and "seam taped" afterwards instead of needle and thread. Even the BARE people call them seams when referring to where the leaks where located.

Take a look at the stock photo, and the seams are evident http://www.baresports.com/en-us/Dive/Products/Drysuits/Neoprene/XCS2-TECH-DRY/Mens

Okay you win, but we agree that the seams are not stitched but hot welded together.

They call it none stitch technologies

(I mixed seams and stitching, English not my primary language)
