Cheers G @HappyG(rrr) Our daughter isn’t allergic, as such, but she’s always been hyper-sensitive to the "feel" of neoprene. She wears tech-type layers, leggings and (sometimes) waterproofs. Another friend of mine swears by Paramo gear for canoeing. I like merino base layers. Forgot to say thanks to S for info as well. Thanks! G

I thought they were a little shorter than the Mistral. Our local Lidl had had badly packaged Mistral on sale recently (but before the new ones hit the shelves) and I kind of wish I'd bought it as a spare now.
