Held Slade II Costume en cuir de moto one piece

I bought this product I weigh 85kg and height is 179cm suits fits me perfect like a glove . I’ve also owned the full speed suit bought a 54 and was way to tight could hardly get it . These slade 2 are some of the nicest leathers I’ve worn and fc moto top class service

I have not ridden this suit yet but wearing it around the house for few hours give me enough info to know this suit. It may seem immature to rate a suit without ridden with it. I own more than a dozen suits and one of them is custom made.

5'7" 140 lbs. 41 in chest and 30 in inseam. My other suits are size 50 and 52 EURO, range from Skype, Alpinestar, Dainese, Spidi, Revit, Ixon, Texport and Z-Leather. My weight went from 145 to 185 and now down to 140 lbs. Needless to say, size 52 ones were when I was heavier. With my height, most would wear size 48 but my chest and thigh prevented me from choosing suit with size 48 with correct length but with very restricted movement. Example would the size 52 Alpinestars Athem 3. The local tailor added three inches in thigh and one inch in calve area. Even then, I had to wear the thinnes back protector, one from the original Dainese made in the 80s and no chest protetor.

Since I dropped 40 lbs., I purchased size 50 but 25 for this suit. It is to my surprise to see a short size suit is actually too short. Arm and leg length about few inches shorter than it should be or what I got used to. However, Knox Android gloves are long enough to protect wrists and race boots room Alpines, Sidi or Dainese would protect lower shin area.

I could give only 4 stars at first due to shorten length in arms and legs but material, workmanship, fitment and excellent pricing raised rating to 5 stars.

The suit is very light, comfortable, armors in all the right places and has no restriction in any area while squad or hanging about the bike standing still. I almost forgot the suit was on after about 15 minutes. The suit has a lot of ventilation, and it is too cold to ride in 20 to 40 F temperatures. It is the main reason I have not ridden on this suit yet.

The suit arrived within two weeks since I chose the cheapest shipping method for, I have no immediate need for this suit.

FCMOTO customer service is on par with others and pricing is excellent, especially during Holiday sales.

Quality of materials is, overall, very good. I would like to have seen better quality zippers throughout, especially on the zip-out liner, which appear to be a light duty zipper. Yes, less bulk but I wonder about how long these will last. The main front zipper is the only one that is adequate, but just.
Size is very close according to their size chart. I am 6' 1" or about 186cm, 165 lbs - 75kg and have long legs & arms. The size 102 fit very well, though not exact of course.

My measurements vs size 102 as stated by size chart (metric)
Height OA is 186.5 -- 184-189 stated and is consistently 2-3cm short in body, arms and legs.
Chest is 105 -- 102-105 stated and is very tight - had to take the back protector out & get a thinner one
Waist is 86 -- 91-95 stated and is a bit tight, so not very close
Hips are 103 -- 100-103 stated and is perfectly snug
Inside leg is 88 -- 85-87.5 stated and are at least 3cm too short

Knee sliders and velcro on suit line up well with lean position - important because there are several brands out there that aren't very close.
Elbow, forearm and shoulder armor are quality pads and are well placed based on suit size.
While the inner liner has 2 inside pockets, one is about the size of a larger cell phone like the Samsung S21U (my phone) but the other is tiny, useless and has already ripped out.
While the lower leg zippers are plenty long enough, I would have liked the forearm zips to be at least 2" or 5cm longer, if not more - they are quite short at only 5" or 13cm. This would be fine for a much smaller suit - 46 or 48. But a 102 is basically a 52 tall .... operative word being "TALL"
The race hump is well designed and seems to help with aerodynamics. However most of the more expensive suits have integrated hydration pacs, or the ability to add one. This would have been a nice addition.

Overall impression: All in all this is a very good quality suit in and out and well worth the investment.. Can you buy better? Yes, but at a much higher cost.
