You'll not regret buying a weezle... I think a lot of people
here will second that. I've had mine 5 years now and it's
still warm as toast :)

There is a massive following for the Weezle Extreme here. If you were to
turn up to Icebreakers you would think it was an outing of the "Weezle
Wearers Convention"...

I love mine, it keeps me warm, if its too cold I have a set of their
thermals too!

I've had a leaky dump valve for a while now and usually end up with a damp
arm - the Weezle still keeps it warm though.

And Paul and Hillary sometimes stop by here and say hello (never met them
but spoken by email- nice people) from time to time.

I use a Weezle Compact under my compressed neoprene, dived a week in
Norwegian Fjords in <6 deg and was fine, even when my dump valve started
leaking.
