Probably none of us have had the opportunity to test drive all the different types of suits and style of veil/hood available.
Back in the heady days of May when I was adopted by a swarm (un-planned) I had to quickly get hold of gear. An ex-demo all-in-one suit from Fragile Planet at reduced price was what I got at short notice. I suspect it may have been tugged about a bit as people checked it's quality at shows. Not necessarily a reflection on the suit but the result is that having put it through the wash one seam has failed. It's been patched but will become the 'interested visitors' suit.
I hope this doesn't breach the 'no advertising' rule? - Mark?
My questions:
"What suit do you wear? Having used it for a period would you still have bought it? What veil / hood format do you favour? Suit colour favoured - non-white seems rather more practical? Of the suits on the market (with things like vent pads etc) what would you buy now?"
