Yep i have the same disability... was bloody lucky to find a pair of Dainese pants off the rack. A suit would be near impossible.
But i'm fkn comfortable on a plane

Sweet, u wont regret it, thats not a bad price mate, for custom made leathers.
they have come down in price, used to be a lot more than that, but a lot of good cheap stuff around these days. so they got to compete.
and u can choice ur colour scheme, i gather u have had a look at the web site?
Good fitting leathers make a big diffence when u are out there.
