We all could use a little love like that. Reminds me of the 14K heart with love on it I found a year or two ago.

I wear a 7mm farmer john - with a 3mm dive jacket - under that is a sweatshirt - sweatshirt gets saturated and body warms that water =eventually = got to bear the initial chill for a little while - unless you bring a jug of warm water to pour into suit
I usually get tired before I get cold - can usually last about 3 hrs - if Im digging
7mm gloves - 7mm dive boots - with thermal socks underneath those
taken some yrs to get things the way I like - have other suit configurations that I have tried and use too

now that' is a honker! Nice find. How thicks suit ? Hh gl -Joe

It takes a lot of LOVE of this hobby to get into 45 degree waters! A real beauty there! :occasion14:

I did 53 degrees with a 5 mm suit. I lasted 3 hours. Was a bit chilly. I need a new frog suit so no water yet for me. A band like that makes it all worth it though. Hh gl -Joe

I wear under armour under my wetsuit in the water during the winter and early spring.
