I recently spent over 100 pounds on this oversuit only to find it leaks and soaks up water when brand new.
Infact it is no better than my old daleswear one which is around 15 years old.Anyone got advice on whether it is possible to proof them??.
Thanks John.

It's unlikely that any effort to proof will be successful.  I only use my AD suit over a wetsuit now.

Serious over priced for the quality......

Aventure verticale, can't recommend them enough. Although they aren't waterproof

When I got mine it was described as lightweight and breathable, Very appropriate for warm caves, and caves where exertion is to do with speed and distance, rather than grovelling in foul narrow places...

Never expected it to be waterproof.
