That's like saying you're not sure why a car made in Japan is better than a car made in Mexico or France. It just is.

Thanks!

BTW I know that shit was fucking funny!!! To tell the truth that's one of the reasons that I don't normally wear a full suit. You look like an idiot (imho)if and when you get off the bike. Not to mention that they aren't exactly designed for walking around.

Exactly. You look like an even bigger idiot when your leathers don't fit you all that well... (I couldn't resist since they were cheap and needed a 1pc.)

Looks like it's a size too big to me.

Nah, I had them go a bit wide in certain areas, I want to be able to wear a sweat shirt or whatever under neath and I want air to be able to move around easily in the Summer. I don't know, maybe I'll get my shit together, now that I'm healthy, exercise, lose some weight and buy another suit.

Yea, mine are pretty good in that respect, which is important to me. I tried on several suits in the $400-500 range and either they were too short or they were too fat. They make these suits to order, they will modify the color, size, etc. I almost went with Clover actually for the same reason. The truth is, I'm not sure that I'll be able to wear any off the rack suit, regardless of price.

That is the part that sucks for being a female. The cheapest suit I found was around $500+, too damn much for a couple track days a year. Maybe I was looking in the wrong places,
I looked at mens, but very few manufacturers make a size 38. I settled for a 40, so it's a bit baggy. But I wasn't going to complain since it is an AGV and only paid $125. It works.

What? "Chinese leather goods are better than Pakistani leather goods" is hardly common knowledge... Shit, this is honestly the very first time I've heard someone defend Chinese goods against another country. BTW if you drive an American car, it's very likely that a great number of your parts were made in Mexico. Just like if you drive a Japanese car, it's likely that a great many of the parts were made in Taiwan or Korea.
