You may take cheaper stuff. This seems to be the same we use on a boat
to fix the septic tank system, has to be very impermeable for gas.
Thsi is not needed for a dryer.
But remember that air containing water vapor has a lower density and
will go up. So without a blower it may be wise to hang the suit feet
down zip open.

Yeah, but its only a few quid and looks fun  :o\  Personally I just hang
mine from the boots and it's fine, but not as fun!

Are you not thinking of steam, which rises because it's hot rather than
because of the water vapour itself.  Could be wrong, but i'm sure moist air
would fall...

I've seen the math, was a bit surprised myself.

Another reason not to have a neoprine dry suit.
