Just say no, and get a real drysuit.  If you are talking about the original
Oceanic Flex, I and many friends had them.  They leak, the boots leak, the
crotch leaks, the seams leak.  Something to do with using the wrong glue.
Mine lasted 80 dives before the zipper was about to blow out and one boot
was worn through.  The seals are not very durable nor do they seal
particularly well.

I have seen a new Oceanic drysuit that was much heavily put together, but if
you're talking about the one which appears as a plain nylon trilaminate, all
black, or black with a blue or purple area, just say no.
