I like the idea of a 4/3 (which is what I have now), with the idea being a bit warmer than a 3mil, but still easy to get on and off. I hate trying to drag a 5mm sleeve up my arm or leg. Wears me out just putting the suit on.

With a good fitting suit, even a 7mm is easy to doff/don.    My custom suit from 1998 is still easy.    Unfortunately wear is starting to take a toll on the back, and I don't think that vendor is still in operation.   I may have to venture into the market soon.  I just don't dive enough in cold cold water now to hurry  - would rather repair the existing.
