Gee, I don't know.
The compressed neoprene takes forever to dry and weighs a ton (not the
travelers choice), but wears well. The tls is lightweight more comfortable,
dries in an hour does not have the abrasion resistance of the compressed
neoprene. Gates rubber in England has some interesting Trilaminates that wear
much like the compressed neoprene but of course dry faster. 
One of the things that I used to hate about my DUI's was the big fat seem that
runs right down the middle of the boot. (I have a size 45 foot and dive XL
jets)..:-( The Gates boots were a f*cking dream come true! 
Speaking of comfort (or lake of) has anybody got stuck with a set of those
convoluted rock boots imported from China that DUI has been pushing? He He He!!
I'll have to get a pair to go with my split fins...:-)
