my 0.02; I have the original black Skinz that I got from a friend about midway through the season. I fish pretty hard and had ZERO problem on it, and I'm not all that anal about care of my gear. I use dry suits alot at work, I guess I'm used to putting on the neck seal and crist cuffs etc.., but I have no splitting or damage; granted I dont have ogre wrists like Nebe, but I'm not a small guy either...
just my 0.02; however the simms do come in better colors which is very important to some of you to match your waders

Actually Brian I wanted a stealthy black top like the one you have - not the sky blue/turquoise whatever color my Simms Top is - but Simms doesn't make one. I would have it dyed if I was not afraid it would get ruined.

Joe, try layering a pima cotton sweatervest over the Simms top. It will achieve the sleek styling you're after, but won't impeed breathability or freedom of movement.
If the neckline is cut low enough, you'll even be able to reach your waterproof pocket

That I'd like to see....
Like the old stories of the block; where the locals painted their trucks flat black so you couldnt see where they parked...
Maybe I'll go Cammo green...
or strip my racks off and cover it with bumper stickers so I look like one of the party kids parked at XXXXXX

Go with camo green--it breaks up the outline better than solid black. Black stands out too much against a dark background
