Slipped on the bank last year on a muddy bank on the Swale last year in the summertime and ended up in the river. I know exactly what he meant about cold water shock, luckily it was only waist deep but the panic is unreal.
I got the Snugpak Salopettes, warm as toast and breathable. I need the XXL due to my "fuller" figure, slightly long in the leg but very happy with them.
