I noticed you didn't get a response from the forum regarding Carapace Custom Wetsuits. Full disclosure I am with 7TILL8 wetsuits, previously known as Carapace. We recently changed our brand name to 7TILL8. Our new website is www.7till8.com. Please allow me to answer your question for you.

We're doing things differently with our wetsuits by really emphasizing fit. It's the most important element in a wetsuit so even if you have a wetsuit with the best materials in the world, it won't do much good if it does not fit right. Although we source the best materials and use the best techniques to build our wetsuits, we are different than the other brands because we developed an algorithm that builds patterns precisely to your measurements. We're focused on each customer and build the wetsuit according to the customer's needs. This is what sets us apart and we price our wetsuits competitively with high-end styles in surf shops.

We've been hand building custom wetsuits for 5 years now and are making improvements with each wetsuit we build. Feel free to email us with more questions at [email protected] and i'll be happy to share with you some styles and information on our custom wetsuits.
