Subject: Re: constricting one-piece DUI drysuit underwear
Two piece underwear works under the condition that the shirt is tucked 
into the pants so donning the suit does not push it up and the shirt is 
long enough that stretching does not pull it out of the pants.  One piece 
underwear just makes things easier.
IMHO
