    Hey guys,
    I've been surfing for years but never ventured out into the cold surf. this year I decided to buy a wetsuit and extend the season.
    I purchase a billabong SG5 4:3 suit with 5mm gloves and Booties.

    Upond turning my booties inside out I discovered what appears to be seems that are not totally sealed. they are sealed from the outside but the inside looks like it had its glue seem pulled. These are brand new and never used.
    Is this an issue? would you recommend returning it.
    the other boot is perfectly sealed seems.
    thanks
    Mike
