Dainese 2pc - can't remember what exactly tho'!  Twas comfiest I tried tho' (from The Bike Stop in Stevenage).

Wish they zipped together more thoroughly tho.

Alpinestars MX-1 piece. Very very comfortable.

Have to say, I'm not a massive fan of Dainese kit. The zip tabs keep breaking on them, I've got textile kit from them and ALL the zips have gone on them (after 4 years daily use mind you)

For textiles, has to be Hein Gericke Gore-tex. Bullet proof.

Still have my old two piece black belstaff leathers, comfy as Fu*k  :headbang:

But have to admit as they seem to walk away themselves now I tried on some new Alpinestars stuff and the fit for me was atrocious, there was that much extra length on the legs the knee armour was on my shins!!!  [naughty] and i am of average build and height! 6'1, 14st (well i am average everyone else are fat gits  [rofl])

Berik 2 piece, good quality kit, although with it being Italian....and most Italians generally being wimps it is very tight around my arms and chest (bizarrely the pants fit OK lol).

If you do any gym work - you may need to go up a couple of chest sizes on what you think you may need
