Shane Jones addresses the assumption that all major wetsuit are made in the same factory, the economics behind manufacturing, and why handmade custom wetsuits are superior.
Hate to say it, but scale of production isn't directly related to quality. In fact its a lot more likely that a mass produced product will be more refined because of its greater consumer exposure.
as a dad with 2 kids just taking up the sport... mass produced suits or we cant afford to surf.... they are £80, last one year and they grow out of it before its destroyed.... its gets handed down the the younger kid and then i sell them for £30 to put towards the next one..... so £25 per suit per year per kid..... sorry its a no brainer !!!! as for being green..... whatever lets you sleep at night dude !!!!!
