Henri Lloyd vintage sailing drysuit in orange:
I got this around 30 years old sailing drysuit by Henry Lloyd made in England by an mid-old Sailor. He is to big to fit in anymore. He had to drive to Munich to buy this in his apprenticeship. The orange is faded a lot and got heavy abrasions marks all over but I guess it´s still waterproof (90 %) I hope. I will put it into test soon on my first regatta. Let´s see how it does.
Let us know if its still waterproof after all these years! If it’s not then it might just need re-waterproofing to make it as good as new again.

The suit looks superb for it´s age and I was for sure not be treated kindly by it´s owner, there is a small hole on one leg from a motorcycle accident but apart from that I could not find any damages right now after all this years.
I just bought the (maybe a little younger?) brother of this suit right now in ebay for not even 30EUR. Has yours been still waterproof?
