Description
Cowhide in 2.5 ounce (1.4mm) thickness is the primary ingredient in
all suits, custom and ready to wear. All leather is drum dyed for
the richest and most durable colors.
The suits use a single ply leather in most areas with the exception
of parts that are prone to contact the ground. The knees, elbows,
shoulders, hips and butt all have a second layer of leather for
added durability and abrasion protection.
Kevlar- Genuine Schoeller Keprotec is used throughout all our
products for excellent flexibility, abrasion protection and
lightweight breathable panels. These panels are in the crotch,
behind the knees and running from the armpit to the wrist. Dont be
fooled by manufacturers using imitation Kevlar. If its not
Schoeller Keprotec, it is not a true Kevlar product. Pads- We use
medium density closed cell foam in 3/8 thickness in the knees,
elbows and back. These pads are pliable and protective while still
allowing maximum flexibility and aerodynamics.
Lining- All suits are lined with a nylon and polyester mesh which
wicks sweat and acts as a buffer between your skin and the porous
back of the leather.
Zippers- All our zippers are genuine YKK brass zippers with
locking, non-slip slides. These slides will not unzip by themselves
which allows us to not need a restraint snap or Velcro on our
zippers. If the zipper tab is down, it is not moving.
Fleece- The collar of all our suits utilizes non pill Polar Fleece.
It is soft and cool in the heat and insulates nicely when its
cold.
Additional Protector in Titanium at Elbows, Shoulders and Knees can
be ordered.
