Is Geoprene just a marketing term or does it actually make a difference?

• Geoprene (Limestone Geoprene) is a game-changer in wetsuit technology. Its revolutionary closed-cell structure makes it 98% water impermeable, keeping you dry and warm. Enhanced with a titanium-alloy solution, it retains heat exceptionally well, even in cold waters. Geoprene's remarkable stretchability (up to 350% of its original size) and elastic memory provide unmatched flexibility without sacrificing shape, lasts exceptionally long and are sustainably made.

I am in between sizes, what should I pick?

• In general you should size up.
