Race Suits - Leather COLORS

[newbiker]

Anyone knows what's with Big name brands - Dainese and Alpinestars, why they keep making boring colors?

Anyone knows how the Berik or RST, Axio, etc. name brands are in terms of quality? Seems they have better color schemes.

I've got many friends who custom made their suits with Mass Customs Suits.
I'm seriously thinking about getting one as well.
My last suit was custom made and got trashed on my last crash
Check them out on FaceBook

I remember the end of last year season, their were having a promotion from $600 - $800 for the custom suits... I should have got me one then... oh well...

Because they sell.

I've always wanted to have a one piece that was tailored to look like a business suit.

OP, 2-3 cans of spray and I'll make your all-white 1-piece look unique, bespoke. I'll even throw parts and labour, and come to your place for free. Just say when. :laughing

I have an RST with a pink/scarlet/rose/salmon/coral sort of color. It's better than some Alpinestars and Dainese stuff I have had. Not a lot of padding, but hard outer parts like A*s. My bet is that it will survive a serious slide. Which is why I bought it. :ride

Sure! I suspect the dried paint will crack and fall off. The chemicals will alter the integrity. So thanks, but no thanks... arty

I got a custom fitted D-air suit a few years back, and it’s well worth the money. They have tons of different color to choose from and they can put custom logos and graphics on when they build it.
There’s a configuration tool on their site to help you get an idea of what you want before your appointment, so you’re not paralyzed with all the choices: https://www.dainese.com/us/en/customworks.html
Typically they Come through once a year for fitting appointments, and they’re going to be in S.F. On the 29th of October.

last 2 full-suits I got blue/white/black, & green/white/black. I absolutely love the green/white Vanson suit (see avatar to left), I think there's a need for more green suits. Too many blue/red suits/bikes out there....:x

For some strange reason, cagers seem to notice the green suit more than any suit I've ever had. Thus, it seems "safer" on the street. I know not why...?
