"this is my choice of protective clothing, it is lighter than the roit gear, but jusst as safe, and can also come with hoods. another venue to look into is the personal faraday cage. it is strong, because it is 25% metal, and lighter than most comprable armours. canvas and such would not stand a chance"

"Ok, I really hope you mean a shark-suit and not a wetsuit, because they are completly different things. A wetsuit is a layer of neoprene rubber made to hold a thin layer of water next to your body. Anyone who plans on using one of these on land will soon die of heat stroke and/or be developing and appetite for brains. You will sweat very hard, and then, if you are in a hot climate, you will be unable to shed bodyheat and will die of overheating. In a cold climate the sweat will freeze, you will be unable to regain heat, and you will die of hypothermia. These suits also hamper your movement and probably would do very little to stop a determined zombie.

However, if I am mistaken and you mean a shark suit, it is still not the best idea. They will stop zed bites, but your bones will be crushed inside the suit. Also the suit is (as said above), rather heavy and noisy ot move in (not to mention somewhat hard to obtain) It would be feasable however if you only armored your arms.

And in reference to the farraday cage, they are lighter than most armor because they are only meant to block static electricty, not knives, bullets, or zack

"@Borathian: Thanks, I aim to please :)
But in reality, unless you wore another layer underneath the shark suit (for anyone who doesn't know a shark suit is basicly a suit of chain mail worn by divers dealing with sharks as a partial protection from bites) the mail itself would grind your skin off leaving an easy path for infection, as the mail of a shark suit is far from waterproof.
"

"Sorry, I was aiming that at the original post, should have made it more clear"

"OK I know were your going with this, but by "regardless of any infection stopping qualities they may posses" I was not referring to chainmail only but any non rigid protection that someone may consider that would stop an infection from the teeth bitting into flesh. so a shark suits liquid resistance or lack there of is irreverent as no one would be wearing just a shark suit with no buffer underneath."

"What kind of suit is best? A full suit, or several pieces put together?"

"I'm not quite sure what you mean. Are you asking about if a suit matches or not? because you can put peaces together to create a full suit."

"ok fine f&%$ the shark suit. but don't deny me that a full body suit with a hood made of metal woven into it would be a good idea. 25% metal is light, (10 lbs) and effective against TEETH and NAILS, not bullets or knives (as suggested in one reply above) there is no armour designed against zombies because no-one has fought wars without weapons for thousands of years. so the faraday cage suit, which is 25% metal woven together, would be perfect.
p.s. the jaw lacks the strength to break any bon thicker than your thumb bones when it is protected by a faraday cage suit and cushioned by cloth and flesh, which said suit protects from infection."
