This may have been on the old board
I am in process of replacing my chesties and would like some comments on comparing neoprene against rubber/nylon.

neoprene are the ones for me-nice and tough and very warm while still breathable

I found Neoprene ok, but they do let the water in eventually, prefer rubber, last longer, take more abuse from the rocks

cant go wrong with a set of oceans ,best ive used ,neoprene are lighter and warm ,rubber are more hard wearing ,the choice is entirely up to you .
mate had snowbees but the soles split on them ,my pal jim has diawa neoprene and they have lasted very well for the last 3 years
