Hey All!
I recently had a latex sock on my NRS dry suit FAIL. Good news is that it was while changing clothes on dry land. I have noticed that other gaskets on this suit are showing their age also. This is the second failure of a gasket on this suit. I was able to repair the wrist gasket myself, not pretty but it keeps the water out! This suit will become my backup suit for future adventures.
Is there someplace in the Portland area where you have taken your suit for repair that you would recommend?
I would like to replace the latex socks with fabric socks, if that is something that could be done?
Or should I just send it back to NRS and have them do the work?
Any advice would be appreciated!

It's not in Portland, but Skin Diver Supply, in Eugene does a good job, for reasonable prices. You could probably send it to em.
A day without fishing probably wouldn't kill me,
but why risk it?

Probably give Next Adventure a ring and see if they do them, or can refer you to someone.
