If your looking at the 5mm suits we have at OEX PL forget about paddling in them. First off your going to be too restrictive and 2nd youll overheat no matter how cold it is. These are Freedive Suits and a very tight fit and very warm.

Go Mysterioso and splash gear over that. You wont regret it.

Eastport paddle pants and top with warm clothes under. I have found with the neoprene and velcro straps tightened at my ankles the water keeps out of my legs, add a pair off bootie and I'm off.

I wore 3mm wetsuit bottoms for the past few winters and regret it. I just bought some breathable Hodgemans at Sports Authority for $75. The wetsuit bottoms always kept me warm but they were so damn uncomfortable after a couple hours. No more itchy wet legs for me. Being dry makes a world of difference and now I'm warm and comfy all day. I don't recommend itchy wet legs and especially not a full suit.
