I did some research on them and found out that they are fully made from scratch by nike themselves. i don't know why they don't use hurley - maybe cuz they suck.Quote:

As for buells, I should know what I'm talking about since i have a 3/2 and a 4/3. definitely the most comfortable suit i've ever had, and i've worn hyperflex, o'neill, billabong, hurley, body glove, and quiksilver. The 4/3 is actually more flexible than any 3/2 i've worn in the past. Warmth is there, never had a complaint. So far seams are good but i've only had it for 4 months so time will tell. the only downside is that it sometimes flushes, sometimes. Overall i'm stoked on 'em.
As for these suits, um no. Too many logos, flamboyant colors, and for a second i though they were buells with their logos on them.
1st: I'm not the owner
2nd: I don't receive any pay from them, only a fan
3rd: The suits are made by buell, it's on their page, private labels
4th: Everyone that buy this suits says that a 3/2 it's warmer than a 4/3 from other labels
5th: Of course that if the suit isn't warmer and flexible I will be frozen stiff guy on water :D
Maybe a posted the most bizarre models, the all neon are for kids, maybe with this kind of color we can see them in the water ;)
But the red/white RVLT model and black/white Indigent (ok, the name could be other...) and don't find extravagant.
the word is written in russian...it translates to "independent."
Let's talk reality. I hear that buel suits are sweet but flush around the neck. I also hear every wetsuit maker say that their 3/2 is like everyone else's 4/3. I also think that every company makes an all black suit. I do know that all companies fit is different. When it comes to wetsuits for me fit is high on the list. That said I want to try the Japanese custom made suits by Axxe and some of the other Japanese companies like dove. I hear they are awesome. I know a lot of west coast shops have the Japanese rep come measure you and in 5 weeks you get a custom fit suit. Too bad I'm stuck here in NC, but going home to Cali for a visit soon and in need of a 3/2 thats not warmer than a 4/3(that's because I have a 4/3 and I wear the 3/2 because it's too hot, duh).
Marketing... You almost can't trust yourself, it's that good!
Dont dig the colors, guess im just old school
Nah you are just a racialist.Quote:
