You know, just that fact that you sniffed it, makes my last post completely worth while.

I'm sure all of you remove those gay Dainese devils and lame MotoGp eyes off of your gear, right?

China has better technology available, and more money.

Pakistan has worse and less.

Plus, nobody ever says, "Hey, let's pickup some Pakistani on the way home".

Shoot, you ain't never had no Tandoori chicken? Heck, curry chicken is just as much Pakistani as it is Indian.

Hmmm... who makes a better leather riding suit, USA or Italy? besides, you know that the best leather suits are made by hand. Hand cut, a person at the sewing machine, etc. Technology be damned. For better or worse, these gloves fit better and have zero easily visible mistakes. Something I could not say for the last pair of A* GpTech gloves I bought.

Suit looks decent for 350 bones. Looks a tad big in areas, but it isn't a custom.

I've had my current $1200 Z-Custom Leather suit for 7 years now and I've never owned any other suit. The thing is starting to rip everywhere, so a new suit is on the horizon. Thinking about getting a custom Pilot Suit for about 1400.

Custom is the way to go if you do alot of riding in the suit.

Yea true! I did some measurements and emailed them. The main thing they did for me was to make the suit a bit "taller" every US48 I've ever tried on was too short for me. They are willing to completely make the suit to your exact specs but you'd better be spot on! I like my suit a bit large because I'm on the street. If it were a track suit, I'm sure I'd want it "painted on" like all of the racers.
