True, a* suits look nice for sure.

The custom ones look gay on the websites... they do have nice looking ones though. And I have seen a lot in person and they look great. Especially vanson and syed... they've got some really slick designs.

Well, I've wore my new suit once since I bought it. It'll be a while before I get another one.

I can vouch for the Syed:
  • My fully custom suit was under $1k
  • The fit is amazing - as it should be with a custom suit
  • The customer service was above and beyond - they knew me by name from ordering ONE suit. And it was at the beginning of race season so they had to have been busy!
  • Crash tested several times now - saved my hide, literally. Low side at about 40, just a few scuffs. Low side at 120, only a few scuffs. (I SHOULD have shattered my elbow on that one - I lowsided but landed on my elbow pretty damn hard). Armor great, stitching holding up wonderfully, suit is still in top condition, only cosmetic damage.

That's good to hear... I've heard a lot of 's on the Syeds... I'll either be going with them or vanson when the time comes.... aka when I have some money.
