I'm so stoked to get mine in the mail. I'm such a kayak fishing nerd. :P

Derek mentioned you ordered one while I was there, and that you were excited.


That's what my new one has, and I love it.  Be sure to pull really tight at the end!

I noticed that. I thought I had it closed earlier but it wasn't all the way there.

Here you go RR! Works great! Hit up Willamette Park this evening, nice and warm. I got my ff working correctly and tried out the new drysuit. It worked great!

Got my Hydrus today. Of course, I had to try it out in my living room. Even in my 73 degree house I was feeling comfy in it. I'm amazed at the breathable technology and how well made the suit is made. I'm anxious to get it wet and slimy. :)

They do make nice lounge-wear. . . I think you should be able to add a tie and call it formal.  I love my Hydrus and you will soon love yours!!

these dry suits are fantastic, they make you feel invincible out on the water, I was in my T3 for at least 6hours yesterday and very comfortable, when I got back from a solid 5 hours on the water, washed everything down and put it all away before I even bothered to change out of the suit....these zippers work great...

to protect the drysuit socks, I am just using a slightly large pair of aquasocks, cheap and comfortable..cheers, roger

Roger I've been rocking a 5 dollar pair of aqua socks for quite a while when I was in my drytop and waders. I've worn completely through the soles. Haha
I bought a pair of new NRS Titanium drysuit booties from micahgee. I couldn't use them until now because the material in the feet of my waders was too thick for them. The thin/strong material in the feet of the Hydrus make it easy to get in and out of the NRS booties. And boy are they comfy.
It's this shoe, only not as tall. They don't go to the knee. They're mid/low calf length.
