Hummm….
Belutti usually offers stuff that is about
average to above average in terms of durability. In terms of speed, the same
applies. The problem is that these materials vary from lot to lot and year to
year. Getting consistent materials is an ongoing battle for the team. What was
fast and durable last year might not necessarily be fast and durable this year.
Sorry I’m not really answering your
question here.
Have you considered sliding in chain mail?

We ordered the XR31 offering; it has SpeedTex2 as the material.
Gordy, you saying that a suit I wear would be subject to
“hits” ?

Hi Jim –
Actually, you might be surprised how durable yet fast the new
fabrics are. When you get a chance, let me know which fabric you ordered and I
can ask around to see how well it can take a hit.
Take care,

Jim,
I am interested.
Please send me details.
I really like my
nationals racing suit from Belutti and am trying to find out if it will be like
them.
What will they
look like?

I'm putting together an order for Belutti racing suits.
These are high-quality race suits (they supply suits to World Cup
teams), and we're refining a "Team ADK" color/logo scheme.
If you're interested in buying one, drop me an e-mail in the next
week. They are starting up their production in prep for the 2008
season and the window to order will be short.
One word of warning... these won't be cheap. These suits are about 220
Euro's each, plus shipping. I don't recommend them for practice suits,
as you don't want to wear any holes in them ;-)
Interested folks, drom me an email at jim_murphy (at) verizon.net
