Ok so I am in the market for a new pressure suit.
I currently have one of these:http://www.crfsonly.com/catalog/images/661-06-pressure.jpg
But I want something a little bit more flexible and or breathable.
I was looking at this:http://sixsixone.com/Catalog_661Bike.aspx?id=1045284f-9660-47ab-839d-e5406dcc47b8&product=73c7aa18-b7c8-45c3-a878-e971d4274cee
I like how it is more breathable, and I have read it is more flexible and form fitting on other threads and forums, I also appreciate the fact that is has a wider spine guard.
I am just wondering, is it worth $200 of improvement when I already have one?
I decided not to go with dainese (too pricey) or something like a fox launch suit (lacks sternum protection and doesn't look like the pads are as strong as the 661). I guess I am open to suggestions to rock gardn.
Next on the plate is knee/shin guards.

They are worn out and beat down, it is time for new ones. They were slipping but I got the slip overs that prevent slipping.
I am looking at these 2 options, after reading other threads:

So I am unsure what is the best choice between the two.
Thanks guys for your help in advance. I am sorry to serve up so many questions.
