Im looking for a new cave suit for alpine caving and was wondering if anyone has experience with this cave suit. My PVC suit is trashed. I like the PVC in that it doesn't soak up water, mud easily wipes off and dries quick, and that I can glue on patches when needed. I was wondering if someone who owns this suit could answer a question or two.
1. Is this just a cordura style weave with a waterproof coating? It says polyamide fabric but i don't know how that feels.
2. Does the fabric soak up water? or is it more of a hydrophobic material?
3. Does the fabric have a texture that would soak up mud?
Ive heard the Landjoff PVC suits are kind of ill fitting, and since Meander doesn't make PVC suits anymore Im not sure of what to get now.
Thanks!
