I have owned both, I had the socks for my old Pro 80's and the suitz for my new 410's... or I guess I should say old 410's
since somebody stole them!!!
the socks faded out pretty bad though like others have pointed out where the suits have not...
my only problem with the suitz is that they can actually collect water in them like a balloon making it a little tricky to get them off without dowsing myself or the boat.
