 Not sure about pants but I have been very happy with Billabong 2mm reef booties that I bought in Hood River. You can get them direct at: Not sure about pants but I have been very happy with Billabong 2mm reef booties that I bought in Hood River. You can get them direct at:

-In fact I just ordered another pair because I left one in the Padden parking lot...  ​(Anyone find it?) They are pretty minimal for winter but excellent all other times. They also make a higher cuff version. I wasn't sure I would like the split toe but it turns out to be nice because it keeps them in place. I cut off all the straps too.\\+In fact I just ordered another pair because I left one in the Padden parking lot… (Anyone find it?) They are pretty minimal for winter but excellent all other times.

A quick look at the site shows great Clearance deals now. Check out the neoprene farmer john suits and tops and booties too. Solid stuff at a good price.

 I will give my recommendation for the Patagonia booties. I will give my recommendation for the Patagonia booties.
  
-I have gone through several others, Excel & ONeil, which I have repaired and patched. They were good while they lasted. Mainly ripping of the heel section. The main advantage to the Patagonia'​s is the lifetime guarantee. I've sent back stuff which came back as good as new including a totally ripped wetsuit, from being dragged along the Westport jetty, ​ another story. ​ Worth the extra bucks although comparable. They aren't bulky for a narrow foot well but the straps could use cutting off.\\ +I have gone through several others, Excel & ONeil, which I have repaired and patched.

-I highly recommend checking out Vaikobi paddling pants. ​ That's all I use in the winter on training paddles on the lake.  I've used most things on the market - for me this has been the best fit.  Always available at OCEANPADDLESPORTS.COM+**MARC ROBERTA WHITLOCK**
