I've got a Polar Dry suit that's been great the last 4 years but the knee pads are startting to peel off the suit leading to a deep rip in the underlying material.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this, (rubber cement), or shops in RI/Mass area that may be able to repair?

The rip is not all the way through but I'd like to nip this in the bud fast.

Funny you should mention it. Does this look similar? I'm sure that the adhesive used also eats up the neoprene. I sent mine back to the factory after 4 uses. They gave it a "cat llick", but it has returned.

Hi Dan:

I've been happy with a Promotion Storm 3/2 for about 4 years. I didn't know they work of other Mfg's. gear. If that's the case, I might ship mine out for the month(s) of Jan and Feb.

Thanks for the tip.

They didn't as of a few years ago. Check their website.
