I wish I could find that old article.... it tested a* and dainese off the rack top dollar suits, a couple mid range 700-900 suits, a couple lower end 500-600 suits, and a couple custom suits.

The customs and the mids and one of the lowers were the ones that held up the best.

Customs won't be any more money than the a* or dainese suits you're talking about. Plus if you go custom like vanson or whatever, you're helping an american leather business that makes their products here...

There are some other great ones too. Other people may chime in.

Those custom suits look gay though. Astars are tight, SON!

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.
