I received my Boost last week and it agree, it is awesome. The neoprene neck is pretty long but I read to fold it down inward (opposite of a turtle neck) and that made a good difference in comfort. After I burped the suit I did a few head first dives into my pool and swam around for about 30 minutes. When I got out only a tiny bit of water was on the collar of my undershirt. I was amazed it worked so well. Otherwise I was completely dry and warm.

I thought about the attached booties too but then I figured its just another point that could get damaged if I step on something sharp or somehow rip it. So I opted for these 5mm neoprene hi-tops instead and they are super comfortable and easily keep my feet warm. Plus they offer some protection when lifting in the foothold and are very grippy.

I just wear a size bigger of the slippery boots over the bootys, once your feet get cold and wet, It's not fun!

If I lived in Michigan I would do the same...As for the southern states, the 5mm boots will stay plenty warm in 50 degree water. I was looking hard at the Adrenaline Drysuit with the built-in booties but I changed my mind after further research and decided on going a different route. I bet your custom Boost drysuit rocks though. The boost is awesome for sure.
