Will they keep lower body warm in 54 degree water?

NO! They are way too thin for that. They will help, and will keep the wind off, but anything cooler than 65 and you will be cold. You CAN use them as a layer. It takes a little work, but under my 3/2 they work fine.

It depends. I got this for my daughter yet water managed to get in through the neck area yet she was still warmer then with a regular bathing suit.

Not at all! I have never had a problem. My water tank is set for 145 degrees. These gloves are of a heavier quality but are not bulky whatsoever .

The temp setting will go down to freezing, so 50 degrees should be no problem.

For me, probably not. I'd wear them down to maybe 15F, but even then my hands got cold.

I have not used them in an area colder than 50F, but being an LED light, these should work fine well below zero.

They aren't made for really cold weather but they'll do the trick. Anything under 45 to 50 degrees would be too cold

No it won't keep you warm in cold water the fabric isn't that thick. It's better for sun protection.

Depends on how cold you're talking about. The material is slightly thicker than most of the other hiking pants I own and does keep heat in a little better but I wouldn't wear it for sub-zero temperatures hiking either without a base layer. The legs will have room for a base layer but both pairs I had were tight around the crotch region so if you are thinking of cotton long johns or smart wool that's not cut well, it may ride up a bit. Compression shorts/leggings will probably work ok though.

Yes, if you're source water temperature is warm enough. In colder climate areas you'll need the next size up.

You will survive at the listed rating, but your comfort will be in question. I was ever so slightly chilled wearing thermal underwear in a 27 degree night on a wooden platform in an Adirondack cabin. Using additional insulation below and above you might help make it work below 5 degrees, but we are planning to get different bags for camping in those conditions.

If you mean 20 below, no way will these work. If you mean 20 degrees, you may be ok if your activity level is high since they're rubber on the outside with a thin layer of fleece on the inside and they will keep the heat in. They have a good grip and are completely waterproof. Small containers may be an issue depending on what the container is like. Hard to say about that. My husband uses them for shoveling snow in those temps and was fine. Hope that helps.

Although, I have not used these extensively at that temperature. I have walked outside with these pants on in the mornings around 40F and have felt fine. Hope that helps.

I would say no. I bought it for water aerobics at the 'Y'. It's OK for that, but I wouldn't expect it to make me warm in very cold water. Hope that helps.

They did not keep my feet warm in 45 degree water. I bought a pair for surfing and my feet were freezing. The seams are not glued so water moves through them freely. In my opinion, they must be for protective wear such as for diving in warm water.

no your skin will be wet but it will keep you warmer then if you were just wearing a bathing suit.

I would think so but they don't have much in the way of insulation. Unless you got a bigger size where you could wear thick socks I would think your feet would get cold.
