The Technic Chicane 2pc Race Suit was the right price at the right time. At $275 in the New Enough Closeout section it was about 50% of the cost of most suits out there. Happily, the suit is very well made and is everything that I needed for my 1st ever track day at VIR. The only thing that really differentiates this suit from higher end stuff is the stiffness of the leather out of the box - but, of course, the leather will break in soon enough. Sizing is a bit difficult for me so I just ordered the closest two, per NewEnough.com phone support, and I kept the one that fit the best and sent the other back. The fit is based on a more "hefty" frame, but the lengths (torso, arms, legs, overall) are all quite good. Zippers are high quality, work well and are EVERYWHERE you'd want them. Bottom line, for $275, if you want a good, solid, albeit baisc, leather suit, you can't beat this deal. Ride safe!
