Is it exzema, or something to do with sweat? I know neoprene doesn't breath at all so it might be something cause by not allowing the sweat to dissipate?
It is definitely eczema. I get heat rash and while it's really annoying, it's nothing like this (pretty awful) eczema..
When I was younger I used to get a rash on my chest from those foam float/board things you get in swimming pools, no idea why but I had to wear tshirts to stop it!
Which give me an idea - why not try a thin silk liner to keep the neoprene off his skin?
I've never heard of pool floats causing a rash before! Swimming lessons must have been WAY more fun wearing a tshirt.
I'll get him to try silk liners, I have a couple of pairs so I'll lend him my less minging ones.
It might be a yeast issue.
I have to use an anti yeast shampoo on my chest/back as i get lots of little red dots from the sweat. the sweat increse growth of yeast on the skin so using the shampoo kills it off. I was recommeneded this by a dermatologist and it works great.
I'll say it again, defeet woolie boolies are amazing. In the drizzle today and hand's didn't get wet at all and stayed warm in 2 degrees. Such great performance for a thin glove.
I googled anti-yeast shampoo and got loads of dog shampoos! I'll order a human one and see if that helps.
I ordered some defeet gloves as well as neoprene ones, based on the rave reviews on this thread. WEAR ALL THE GLOVES.
