I got a TLS350SP last spring, with rock boots.  They would not have been my
choice, but the factory rep talked me into them, saying if I tried them and
hated them, he would change them for free. 

Turns out, I love them.  They are very slightly negative and then allow
almost no air around your feet.  I don't use ankle weights with them. 
Downside is - less air, less insulation.  The feet in the suit are neoprene.
 Be sure the boots are big enough ( they will help you allow for this) to
wear a pair or 2 of wool socks under them for very cold water.  Also, I had
to get larger fins.  Mares Avanti Quattro Pro fins fit the boots nicely. 
They're great if you shore dive.  I find them easy to swim with as well.  

Go for it.
