Warrmer Longjohns

   If of any interest, what works well for me are surfing steamers, one cheaper and one more expensive for winter. 
I like them because they always seem to have nice thick leg material which helps for wading and knock protection and thinner flexible shoulders (surfers like this for paddling out) for easy reaching around the boat but a bit more warmth and flush protection than a Long John. I do always massacre them though, even the expensive one by cutting the arms off and refinishing just above the elbow. Loosing the forearm makes getting on and off a lot easier, feels freer and eliminates risk of a tight sleeve restricting blood circulation leading to cramp or cold hands. Spray top over if wet n windy.
