My custom Seals skirt cost less than $90 and is a perfect fit for my Guillemot. I couldn't have made a skirt for less than about $65 (neoprene + glue + shipping), and it wouldn't have been as good.

: Seals makes custom sized skirts too, best even if you're mail ordering a
: standard size skirt is to send them a tracing of the cockpit just to be
: sure. Just take a big piece of paper, tape so it won't move over the
: cockpit and draw the outside edge. Also mark how far from the back of the
: skirt you'll sit (make sure the backband is in place). This way there are
: no surprises.
