Hurley Gear - Satisfied?

Thank ye good sir

I might have to try this, but I'll give you credit to whoever is there with me.

 

I bought a Hurley 3/2 this past fall. I took it out of the box and when I put it on and went to pull it up the neoprene ripped. It was the thinnest and most fragile neoprene that I have ever felt. Super stretchy but totally at the cost of durability. Hurley board shorts are awesome but I would stray away from their wetsuits.

 

I have a fusion 3/2 and its super warm and damn stretchy! it has a few places where its kinda falling apart but if you know how to take care of a wetsuit properly ie ( washing it out after every session, not leaving it in sun or hot car) etc it will last. I bought it around a month ago and I surf around 5-6 days a week for sometime six or seven hours so its a true durability test! also the sizes run a tad big. most likely gonna buy a 2 mill s/s comp suit. not to mention they do look pretty dope. I have the green and orange colors

 

I have the same exact colors but in the Fusion 3/2.

 

I bought the 1mil jacket...feels great! And was cheap with that special.

Just bought some lost shorts from Marshall's. They had Hurley, oniel, billabong. All below 20. I have short inseam and hate 20" and longer trunks. Those lost's were a perfect fit.

 

Ummm to me "kinda falling apart" after 1 month / 20 uses doesn't sound very durable??? I've got an O'neill that I have probably used 90+ times over the past year and left out in the sun, never rinse, frequently abuse etc and it isn't "kinda falling apart"..

 

I had a hurley suit a while ago that was the worst wetsuit ive ever owned. heavy, stiff, ill-fitting, with a lousy entry system, and neoprene that felt like a bicycle tire. Winter suits were stiffer back then but that Hurley was a straight jacket.

 

Good advice on the Rip Curl baggies. I love my Hurley's but would like a faster drying thinner fabric. It be hot and humid in the south durin the summah

 

A couple months back I picked up a Fusion 202 spring suit on sale. So far I really like it as it fits me well and is super lightweight....so much so it feels like I'm not wearing anything. The only complaint I have is that the neck goes up too high for a spring suit. Other than that I don't own too much from Hurley except maybe a couple T-shirts.

 

Everything I ordered came in and feel great! Thanks again for sharing your knowledge...
