| Re: Komodo leathers Got them in today, really fast shipping IMO.
They look better in person than they do in the pics. Getting them on is a PITA, probably due to me rather than the leathers. The suit look like a well made suit, even down to the stitching and even around the ankle is a heavy duty fabric it just look cleaner. The suit has plenty armor in it, the hip pads are some of the thickest I have seen, but is comfortable after wearing it for a bit as it is memory foam with a hard armor over it. The knees obviously have hard armor in them. But the only place I think there should be hard armor that it is not is in the shoulder area, which is really no big deal as I can send it to Barniclle Bill and have him install armor where i want it. I guess so far the only bitch I have about the suit is it did notcome with pucks. WTF is up with that. |
