What is your buget look like? That would make the difference in material, Cowhide or kanagroo leather....
I personaly purchased an all black Alpine Star for my first 2 piece. Not really into colors anymore. Fits nice. But weighs twice as much as my friends roo suit.

You can go all kinds crazy looking for a good suit. Suits are like tennis shoes and every manufacture is different. I'm 6 ft and 250, the best suit the I found for me was Teknic, which I'm saving for. I tried Astar and Frank Thomas, couldn't find a Dianese or motogp to even try on. You can also go really expensive with Vanson, they will measure you out and custom make your suit. So, the best bet is to go to a local shop and try some on.

If I really want somthing budget is not a problem, I can always put in like 80 hours of overtime in a month if I want to push myself and the just go hog wild. I know most of you guys wont believe this but my wife dosent care about money, Shes French not a California girl, and in over 17 years of marriage she has never been pushy for anything except making sure our son gets the best education possible other than that I have to force her to spend on herself. She has wanted an Audi TT for years but wont let me buy the new one , Can you believe a woman turning down a $45,000 car , so now I'm trying to find her an 05 on a lease return for her Birthday. Offer me a new Sports car... ANYONE? I didnt think so. :D

Now back to the Leathers I'm about 6-3 and 200 to 220 pounds depending on exercise and eating habits, I want the best protection or close to it but it needs to be comfortable and I would like it to match both the Triumph and the Repsol. Can you guys suggest Manufacturers and Websites.
Thanks in Advance.

I am 6'3 250lbs lean, I bought a size 64 Alpinestar, fits great. Used it on the track for the first time this weekend. No problems. Very comfortable to move around in.
