I sure love my Grey Suit, I would encourage anyone to pick one up.
I've got the itch... No, not that one. It's the good kind.
It's pronounced "fay-len" (the x's are silent)

Is that grey suit a sweaty mess when you get working? I am going to buy myself an ice armor suit for this year and I am deciding between the grey and blue. It get WICKED cold here, but I usually just stay home when it gets below -15F. I do 90% of my fishing from an ATV or snowmobile, and sometimes I travel miles across big water to my spot. I am leaning toward the grey suit because of this.

As an owner of one, what do you think?

I have a grey suit and have never been cold in it even at 25-35 below.If you only fish in 10 or above I imagine the blue suit would be fine with quality under wear.The only reason I bought the grey suit is because it was on sale for 180$ at beans.You do tend to overheat when the temps get in the 20's with the grey suit.

I would say go for it. If you get a big too steamy you can always unzip and it let's a nice breeze blow through. Another possibility is to just have an insulated flannel handy that you can put on over the bib after you've removed the jacket, and that works great too.
