I, personally, have always had great luck with Simpson, they have withstood my abuse and I enjoy the fit that they provide. Desire Burkle has been great to work with and very timely, couldnt be happier

Hinchman is the only one. They are a sponsor and advertiser of this site. Dont see any other suit makers helping our favorite site

Desire either ;-)

I've been with Simpson since 1996 and have used their safety equipment from the very start in 1993. There is no better in quality and durability! I am still wearing one of my particular suits from 2000! The other I wear was new in 2002, and still looks like new. The Hinchmen guy was at Lawrenceburg one night last year and he couldn't believe how well it held up!
On top of that, now they have a shop in the Brownsburg/Indy area again, you can easily go and get face to face customer service.

Hinchman. I've been dealing with them since 1971.

I like Simpson. They are very good to work with and make a really good product.

Look into Design 500 racing suits. They're somewhat expensive, but their quality, comfort, and looks can't be beat!
If not them, Simpson also makes great suits...
