My Axiom that I purchased last spring lasted only about a year. Two of my coworkers got it was well, and the zipper failed on both of theirs. I sent mine into NRS to get the very leaky feet repaired, and they sent it back just as leaky as ever. This is only after one season of use. Heavy use, to be fair. Then I sent it into Fluid Strokes, where they did a pressure test and found major de-lamination occurring on the back, advised me that it wasn't worth fixing. Just purchased an IR drysuit that I'm really looking forward to, would not recommend this drysuit to anyone. I do like the bright colors though. Made me feel safe.
For the same price as a Kokatat why not get a Kokatat, proven durability and quality vrs NRS which is proven to be sub par / poor quality and never lasts more than a season, (two if you are lucky).
TH-cam showed me your review after watching Wade's. Thanks for the great review. Been going back and forth with the Jackl, Axiom and Meridian.

Good review 👍
Very timely.
Thanks!
What size do you have, and how does it fit you?
I have the 15M, 18M, 20M, and 23M. They all fit me fine but I like the 15M the most because I barely notice it.
@@GearGarageTV Are those Millenium Falcon sizes?
There is only one Millenium Falcon size. I've been using the 18M a bit more lately and think I like it more.
"obnoxious branding bothers me", says the guy with the GIANT millennium falcon on his t shirt.
Those are blueprints for a bad ass starship

There are some people who have been disappointed with Kokatat's quality and customer service recently
What about the new NRS GORE-TEX suits? Their older other suits are not Gore-tex, from what I've read.
Please is it possible to get an update, how is the suit holding up. At the minute I’m torn between the NRS Axiom and a Kokatat Meridian.
