SYED has saved my but twice. They are located in Florida. Very easy to measure & you can design your own. Great quality & fast turn around on repairs too. The leather is doubled in the a$$ so no problems w/my right cheek.

I had a 60 mph lowside & a 110 mph highside in this suit. Yes they were $1400, but wouldn't your hospital bill be more?

Yup Vanson #1 in my book. Last year I was looking for a full suit for drag racing and I checked the Vanson website. I decided to drive up to Fall River,Ma. They were having an open house that weekend and had special pricing for custom suits. I spoke with Matt and he set me up and got me measured and in 4 weeks I had my suit. It was originally a $1500 suit ,with the discounts it was just under $1300. Now take into account I am 6'3" and 375 pounds you can imagine how much leather was used.

If it makes you feel any better you can look at the facts.
Leather is from cows that have gone to the butcher shop to feed us. So they are using every part possible much like the great people that inhabited this land before us did with the buffallo. Now fur garments like mink, fox and what have you are slaughtered for just that purpose, there fur.

So leather is not a bad thing.
