I am one of those unfortunate folks who cannot buy off the rack. I have a fat neck for my fat head, broad chest, and gangly monkey arms that just defy what most tailors think is a good fit.
So, a while ago I began a search for 1pc knowing full well that it would have to be custom. Times being what they are, I really didnt want to spend $2k+ on a set of tailored leathers...and then I came across Tilt Customs.
I spoke with the owner Daniel and after some debate, picked out a style in colors that suited me and matched my helmet/bike. $490 for the whole suit and was told 6-8 weeks. I could have gotten it a LOT more customized but was happy with one of the basic designs after a few tweaks. I added perforation and changed some of the colors around and sat back to wait.
Exactly 1 month after ordering (2-4 weeks early) it arrived on my doorstep and all I can say is that I am incredibly impressed. This suit is worth easily 4x the price. The quality of the leather is fantastic (I did some leatherworking in my earlier years so I know a good hide when I see one), the stitching is double/tripe stitched and flawless, and the fit is exactly what I ordered.
There is CE approved armor in all the right spots, I even had to remove the back armor (which conveniently slides in and out of a pocket) to make way for my Knox back protector.
Time will tell how it wears, but so far my initial reviews are nothing short of amazing.
FYI I have seen crash reviews of these suits and they all held up well.
