If you decide on a Bare suit, the pocket that came installed on my ATR-HD is about useless for anything but wet notes. Get a pocket someplace else and install it or have it installed. The DUI bellows pocket is really nice.

I, like many others, have had a Typhoon and now dive a Bare Trilam ATR-HD. The Typhoon was a nice suit and lasted roughly 10 years before I upgraded. The Bare is pretty nice, but if I had unlimited funds, I think I would go with a DUI. If I were ordering the Bare again I would opt for turbo soles instead of the boots, and like I mentioned above I would skip the stock pocket and get larger ones. The boots don't give me trouble, but the fact that they are size 13+ becomes a bit of an issue when choosing fins.

I really like the neoprene neck seal too. A P-valve was a recent modification that I also recommend, but make sure you hook up the hose every time.
