Default Hypothermia/ neoprene waders?

I have both. Fished in 24 degree temp 34 degree water yesterday with
the breathables.
10 to 20 mph winds. Used the neoprenes the day before. It was much
warmer. 26 degrees.
I noticed no difference. The only thing that got cold was my hands. If
you layer the breathbles with under armor, then fleece, they are just
as warm as neoprene. I think the best
would be breathable with attached boots. Hard to find correct size for
me though.


I very much enjoyed reading all the post. Good test Pete, I believe you
summed it up for me.
