Racewear

A question for all you lucky racers...

Looking at finding good value racewear, but I am more than happy to pay what I need to to get a quality, safe product.

What would everyone reccomend for gloves, suit and boots?

I've got the fireproof undies already!

I've seen some relatively cheap alpinestars Alpinestars SP Size 54 White FIA Race Rally Suit Fire Proof Nomex | eBay

But how does it compare to something such as this? PROBAN OVERALL RACE SUIT FIRE RESISTANT - BLACK - MEDIUM - NEW | eBay

I will be going for a HANS device too, so has anyone had experience with the cheaper plastic ones?

Thanks in advance!

I have the Stand21 Clubmans Hans Device - excellent value and wouldnt be in the car without it. Try Merlin Motorsport @ Castle Combe and barter if you get your race gear there as well (best done in person) for about 10% off.
