I am planning to order a tailor made wetsuit from Elios. I've been talking to them via email, and for a first timers wetsuit and trying not to get too expensive I decided to get a nylon elastic outside with either titanium coating inside or regular thermic plush inside. The titanium would cost 25-30 dollars more.
My question is for anyone who has used these types of insides - I am willing to pay the extra money if the titanium is more comfortable on the skin and I know it is more warm. However I do not want it if it is significantly more fragile than the thermic plush. The outside is nylon so it will be protected, but will the titanium wear out very soon? When it starts wearing off will it leave the neoprene open cell, therefore requiring lube to get into?
I am just looking for a decent suit that will last me the next two summers?
Any comments would help, thanks.
