However, with so many manufacturers employing subtly different designs and features, what you&#8217;re getting or not getting at any one price point isn&#8217;t always immediately obvious. Despite the fact that all wetsuits serve essentially the same purpose, the materials, build specificities, and amount of protection tend to&nbsp;vary from model to model. When choosing a wetsuit, taking these aspects into consideration will ensure you get the most comfortable and safe diving experience possible. We&#8217;ve taken a close look at some <a href=\"https:\/\/diving-info.com\/4-3-vs-3-2-wetsuit-the-complete-comparison\/\">wetsuits available on the market from competing manufacturers and listed their pros and cons for the sake of comparison<\/a>, with a specific focus on the NeoSport Premium Wetsuit model.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>What Is the NeoSport Premium Wetsuit?<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/diving-info.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/pexels-photo-887826.jpeg\" alt=\"man scuba diving\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" data-id=\"80875\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u200bThe NeoSport Premium Wetsuit is a cold water suit designed to maximize wearer safety and comfort while maximizing durability and versatility for an ideal fit.

It sports an anatomically cut design with one-piece construction and features a uniform material thickness throughout the suit for maximized core warmth without sacrificing mobility in the joints and extremities.&nbsp;&nbsp;All seams are glued and sewn, and the collar is adjustable with velcro seals along with lycra trimmed seals on the wrists and ankles. A #10 YKK zipper is positioned on the back. For additional flexibility and durability at joints, thermally bonded knee-pads are incorporated to both prevent wear and tear and facilitate smooth movement. One feature unique to this suit is an internal zipper pocket, good for storing additional gear or accessories in a place guarded from the elements. Available sizes include X Small, Small, Medium, Large, X Large, XX Large, and 3X Large. This suit&#8217;s affordable price and consistent overall material thickness make it a versatile choice for hobbyists or beginner divers.<\/p>\n<h2>Pricing<\/h2>\n<p>The dive suits outlined in this list range in price from around $60 to $180.

It features a full back zipper, and flatlock seams to assure water tightness, comfort, and durability with a reduced amount of irritation and increased mobility underwater. The cut of the wet suit is anatomically informed, allowing it to fit without creasing or tearing around the body. Unique to this model are chill breaker mech skin panels, which trap additional heat to the body. &nbsp;Kneepads for increased durability at the most often flexed points of the suit as well as effortless mobility give this suit an extended usage timeframe. The collar is fully adjustable with velcro for the easy addition of a hood as well as the prevention of cold water flushing. This suit is available in X SMall, Small, Medium, Large, X Large, XX Large, and 3X Large, allowing for an increased amount of accessibility and comfort for users of any shape or size, including children.

Some manufacturers don&#8217;t offer warranties at price grades below $100, while more renowned manufacturers making more expensive products almost always do, which is an important consideration for gear that endures constant use and carries with it the potential to fail due to manufacturing errors.<\/p>\n<p>However, at this price grade, those simply looking for a barrier between themselves and the water as they engage in ocean, river, or lake centric athletics will do good with a model that costs less but covers the essentials.
