Hating on Neoprene



Dear Details,

With regards to your recent post about the technical wonderment that is neoprene, please note that you omitted one crucial fact about the fabric.

IT DOESN'T BREATHE!

Sure I oohed and aahed at the thought of neoprene until I tried it on. The damn thing is stiff and provides no air whatsoever to circulate around your body. It was like being inside a hot pocket snack.

YES
Maybe I judged it too quickly and need to try another version that has ventilation designed into the piece to allow your skin to breathe. Until then, I'm not a fan.

NO
Just because the fabric was developed for surfers, I advise that you don't wear this to go in the water. Most surfers aren't the brightest light bulbs on the Christmas tree.

MAYBE 
You're one of those guys who thinks it looks cool to wear your winter coat open. Then, this is for you. This also applies for any guy who has some kinky secret basement with props. You can add this as your high-fashion piece in your gimp collection.
