Subject: Polypropylen underwear

Guys, from various sources an underwear from polypropylene was recomended to
me as the right choice for dry suit bottom layer to be worn (e.g. under
thinsulate). According the information I've got it should transport water
(sweat) from your skin to upper layers.

I tried it and was a bit disapointed. May be it works well in open air but
in closed enviroment when it was a bit wet it actually transported water
under thinsulate and made more body surface wet and cold. What's your
experience with this type of underwear?

During those 4C dives which additional insulation do you use when yout
Thinsulate is not sufficient?

Best regards
