Hey Gregg, think I responded to you on NPMB too, but anyway here is to answer your questions. The suit is a 2010, red/black/grey so a newer model than the orange and grey with a few upgrades from that version of the suit. For me it was tight on the inseam (crouching down in a catchers stance it felt taught on the knees/crotch) and a bit on the shoulders (I suited up in all my gear in the basement and got into some roll positions). I don't think the suit is heavy but I don't have all that much experience with many other suits to compare and to be honest in the northeast its not like I'm doing hike-ins or anything, I'm more concerned about cold water/being warm than overheating and sweating. Seems to breath pretty well, I had the older model (orange and grey) and felt that was pretty ideal. I purchased a replacement, exact suit, slightly more used just a size large.
