I've got both a set of lloyd ocean racer and gill key west, both are gore-tex and while the pricetag is as much as some people spend on all their fishing gear, both sets will last ~5-10 years (esp. the ocean racer stuff... it dosen't see much use, but when it does, its ABSOLUTELY necessary)

The lloyd dinghy smock w/ the watertight seals is just as rugged as the aquaskins top.

Team1's prices are definitely a little steep, easier to pick stuff like that up at the boat show or out of Defender during the (northern hemisphere) off season.
