Pros: NOTHING moves once you get into this. there's no way your armor will slide out of the way if you hit the tarmac. there's extra padding everywhere.
Cons: difficult to get into (i suspect it's that way with all suits, tho). oh, this is advertised as, "fully perforated". they must have forgotten my perforations, because there's only a few on the inside of your upper thigh on the pants. it seems that both the pants and the jacket are vented in a couple spots, tho. the zippers are the smaller kind. i'm sure they're tough, but they don't really look like they are. oh, and they're euro zippers, too (zipper tongue is on your left-hand side as you zip, like womens clothes) this will take a bit of getting-used-to. otherwise EXCELLENT construction throughout, this suit looks and feels like it will protect you pretty well...
Sizing Info: Other
Additional Sizing Notes: the pants seem to fit right or maybe slightly big and the jacket seems just the opposite; it's a little tight. if i had it to do over again, i would've picked a size 60 (euro) jacket and size 56 pants. that would have been a better fit for my size. i do admit, i need to shed an inch (or two) around by stomach, tho...
