Differance Mares Instinct Open cell/ Mares Instinct Sport

[tim_a]

I'm going to buy me a new wetsuit for freediving. In the scubastore i've found that mares has some suits who aren't too expensive. But what's difference between the Mares Instinct Open cell and the Mares Instinct Sport? To me they really look pretty much the same...

Open cell: Mares - Pure Instinct

Sport: Mares - Pure Instinct

Sport version has nylon lining inside. So not as warm as open cell.

EDIT: And which one would you recommend for waters from 10°C-20°C?

As I see it, there's is no good reason for using suit with inner linig, since thinner suit with open cell provides same thermal insulation. Thinner suit is always more comfortable and flexible.

For waters 10C - 20C, I would use 5mm open cell (or coating) rather than any other suit. So go for open cell.
