    What's the cost for you lot to get a full bespoke suit made? I'm talking a pro-level suit. I'm curious.

    A pro level suit would have to include an air bag.

    I was wondering along the lines of a specialty shop, a complete one-off.

    Picking up the new suit this weekend. It's been in the works for a few months and is finally ready. The airbag vest isn't here yet since I changed the option at the last minute. I cannot wait to get this suit! Riding with it this weekend to break it in. We have a skill competition/end of season party at one of the schools I teach at and I'm showing up in race trim..lol. Should be good for a laugh during the "slow race"

    Looking good. Think Marcel Irnie wears heroic leathers?

    How do you find the x spirit 3? I had the previous model before switching to arai. Quite like the shape of the 3.

    Marcel Irnie does wear Heroic, I was riding with him on track a few weeks ago. He does some of his his one on one clinics at the track (NYST) where I ride. Heroic is a local company (to me) here on Long Island in New York. The owner, Todd, is a friend. The suit was $1650. Airbag vest not included.

    Wozza, I have all manner of Dainese gear, just not a fan of their suits in stock form, bespoke was the way to go for me and knowing the guy who makes them is always a plus!

    Absolutely love it! Such stability at speed, comfortable and incredible airflow.
