I am hoping to make purchase within a day or two if I can find the heavier jacket...

I normally wear a large shirt, and was wondering if I should size up on the heavier model?...

Salt water edge has both models in now

Yahoo!...

I'm off and running tomorrow night!

Do the sizes run big? I'm 6'4'' 250 #...a buddy has the xl version and it was big on him...Just wondering if an xxl or xl would probably fit better.

Tbone, I'm 6-1 and about 235 or so and the XXL is the one I got, it is the lightwieght model.

I go an inch taller and 10 lbs lighter---mine is XXL too.

Strongly suggest trying them on rather than buying blind.

I'm getting them.....
 

Just placed an order for both the Hurricane and Evolution
So, I guess I'll have them up for sale soon...
I don't know prices yet but they will be competitive.

STOP STOCKING COOL STUFF JOE!!! I'M GOING BROKE AND THE MISSUS IS GONNA KILL ME! :D :laughs:

:happy: I'm taking all the WeeWee's money!
No pity...you guys from CT all have good jobs...everyone from Rhody works in the fish stix factory
Getting Aquaskinz hoods too....
I also just got in replacement studs for korkers and those studded felts made by Korkers that you glue on....
Studded felts are the best things going.....
After your wife dumps you, you can come and live under my porch...I'll yell down fishing tips through the cracks, "WeeWee, Block Island turned on this week."

Wow guys what have I been missing:eek:

Thanks so much for the positive feedback, i can't tell you guys how good it makes me feel to know the AquaSkinz are being enjoyed by you guys!! A special thanks to JohnR is in order as well, thank you John for putting us up on your front page!!

T.Lapinski, very happy to hear the Skinz served you well with Isabell....they served me well to...I was crazy enough to venture to Montauk and try fishing....I did stay dry though:D

Weewee, what are you nuts:smash: How did that happen?? I am guessing you are okay...since you are still posting.

Now, I have to make a few suggestions. first, the neck seal is snug but not overly tight. We were concerned with this too when we designed them...that is why we used the smooth skin seal rather than a laytex seal (laytex chokes you). I don't recommend cutting the neck seal (weewee we had a miscommunication :eek: ) If you find it is too tight for you pull the neck seal down to your comfort zone and turn the inside out, about a 1/4 inch...it will still form a seal...if not just make minor adjustment. The best is to leave it as is though.

The jackets are cut very differently. The Evolution is cut to be true to size as it was intended to be a spring to early fall jacket...but a lot of guys love it too much to put it away:D in the fall. I recommend going up 1 size if you plan on using late into the season so that you can layer. The draw string can be trimmed back, leave it loose, see where it is, pull it tight and trim back and tie a a knot (albright works great :laughs: )

The Hurricane is cut large and also has a wading belt included (sewn on) you should stick to your size...some guys actually went down 1 size (me included). There is plenty of room here folks...don't bump up in size.

Both jackets are stocked to 3XL so no worries. For all you Mass guys, ask your local shops why they don't have them yet?? They are missing the party!

Well I think I went overboard (but stayed dry with my Skinz;) Any questions please feel free to contact me.

Thansk again all and cath'em up, this is the time baby!!

Hey guys,,, real fisherman don't care about getting wet.

And cold, grumpy ones go home....... :D

:laughs: :laughs: :laughs:

When I'm not wearing a total wetsuit and down with the fishes, I'm toasty dry and warm wearing my AquaSkinz jacket.

Nobody understands hypothermia better than a diver. You loose body heat 25 times faster in water than in air. I suffer when I dive for protracted periods during the late fall and winter.

I DON'T WANT TO SUFFER when I'm surf fishing. I love my Skinz and they do a fantastic job of keeping me warm and DRY.

Going to have to lock mine up, Jr. took my AQUAZKINS tonight.........:smash:

Hello Fish-Eye, Can't agree with you more. Being a novice diver myself I know the feeling of being cold. Also, because I use a wet suit to fish the South Side of Montauk there is nothing worse than feeling like your body is giving out on you because of the cold. I wear my top over the wet suit as it is wind proof and does keep me very warm so that I can put in my desired time.

JohnH, I didn't know you and young lad were partners for the Skinz....;) We'll have to talk about this...:D

Hopefully we'll catch up next week....still working on putting together "Team AquaSkinz" for the charity tournament next week.

Tight Lines all!!

Kadir

Ha Ha:D
