Default Texport Two piece suit... opinions??

Found this on ebay. I know its cheap but it sounds like it may be pretty decent for "starter" leathers until i can afford some more expensive ones. Anyone have experience with these or opinions? Thanks

sounds like a good deal for a starter set. and those are german tags and sizes. i saw quite a few guys wearing them when i was stationed over there (that brand but looked diff.) but never thought to ask about em. if they wear em on the autobahn they must be decent.

Possibly made in the Far East, Just like my A Stars gloves........made in VIETNAM.
Not that the quality is bad, cost of manufacture is so much cheaper there. I know a manufacturer in Pakistan who will make you a set of leathers (very good quality) for about the same price. (they also make 80% of the world's footballs, in Pakistan, believe it or not)
The Swiss hate the Germans because they keep beating them at football
