Just talked to Fish307 on the phone to ask about color choices and he will be adding a drop-down box for that purpose today.
He told me it looks like they are going to be sold out before the order comes in, in two weeks; so you guys (or gals) that holding on to your money better get on line and pre-order soon.
Also, if you have the ability to do local pick up, he said that would be doable also, saving on the shipping.

while you're answering Jay's question...what about the whole one-piece suit vs. two?  In the event of falling through, wouldn't all kinds of water come in?  I mean, yes, you're going to float, but...wouln't you end up a lot wetter than with a one piece?  Curious to hear your thoughts, folks.

from what I can tell the difference between Arctic Armour and Arctic armour plus is the lining. without getting too technical i guess I'd just say the Plus is a little warmer?

as far as getting wet, it isn't gonna matter if you have a one peice suit or if your wrapped in saran wrap, the water is gonna come in fast if you are in it. the IDI suits will keep you afloat so you can try to get yourself to safety but hypothermia is the real killer in cold water submersion situations. there are other suits that offer protection against hypothermia Such as Mustang survival suits.

                                                     hypothermia is a real scare but first you have to get by the gasp affect!!! which is when u go through and gasp from the cold shock which is often the cause of winter drowndings

Zeke,
   You'll want a large coat and large bibs for your size.   I called IDI and gave them your dimensions and that's what they said.  Those sizes you see in the chart are stretched out sizes to show you the max measurement.

I bought the red coat last year, I never got cold wearing it down to -15* with high winds. I did have a problem with the plastic zipper getting stuck in the material near the top by the the stormflap. It got so stuck in fact that I broke three teeth of of the zipper trying to pry it loose and wrecked the whole zipper dealybob to the point it would not zip anymore! The cheep undersized snaps also proved to be just as useless
 as the cheep plastic zipper.  Instead of calling IDI gear and complaining, I took matters into my own hands and found a tailor up in White bear Lake. And a zipper company in NYC NY http://www.zipperstop.com  And I had a YKK # 5 "2-Way" Brass zipper
installed and had them sew a heavy duty Velcro strip right over the snaps. I should have got the YKK # 10 "2-Way" Brass Separating zipper instead of the #5 because it would have been easier to zip up with gloves on (oh well) The heavy duty Velcro strip  works so good , that I hardly ever use the zipper anyway. I only wish IDI gear would have installed the full length Velcro strip in the first place, At least on the red and green coat I could see the need for the snaps on the camouflage to keep it more stealthy.

The hand warmer pockets are awesome they actually warm up cold hands due to the unique insulation.  I was impressed enough with this product that even bought stock in the company  http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=ivdn.ob  and plan to buy more of it while it's at these low share price levels.

I have waited until this year to get the bibs and plan on buying them soon.

Just picked up my suit at fish307 yesterday.  This was after ordering it on-line when this thread was started.  They did not list the green (plus) suit at that time so I called them and they said to go ahead and order it, just specify the green suit.  Well, great guys that they are, they didn't know at the time there was a price difference, and they stood by the original price!  Very nice guys there at fish307.  They sold 4 of those suits in the 30 min. that I was in the store browsing.
I love the suit - excellent (no, more than excellent) workmanship.  This suit is going to be awesome.  I like the tricott (treeco) lining.  It is "sticky" going on over cotton-like fabrics, but I wear synthetics as my layers of clothing when fishing.  I won't need nearly as many layers this year, I'm sure.  Great product from a great supporter of IS.  :) 8) :P ;D

Thanks IceShanty for setting this deal up this is a great site.

So I have the unfortunate situation, that my parents want to get me an IDI suit as a Christmas/Birthday combined present...

I'm 6'3" tall weight about 210 and I normally wear Large Tall shirts and coats.  Pants of size Large usually fit just fine, I don't have supper long legs.

What size should I have my Mom order...oh and can she order it through Ice shanty without being a member?  And can I get the patch???  ;)

thanks,

Neptune, I'd get the Large coat and Large bibs for your size. You'll still have plenty of room for layering underneath.
