    Smile Ixon clothing

    I just purchased a one piece Ixon suit and I am going to get a jacket for my lady.

    Great style and fit and I got a good deal way better than what I paid for my Spidi suit.

    Seems like most of the big stores in Auckland stock a range and its worth checking out.

    I havn`t seen it in Christchurch yet.

    Heard of comparing apples with oranges?
    Ixon's good, but it's not in Spidis league.

    I went and had a look at the Ixon gear at AMPS, loooked, felt really good, had all the right features you should look for but obviously its not as good as some of the Spidi stuff, but hey, its not the price of spidi stuff.

    the price is right, I reckon there is nothing as good in its price range - haven't seen any leather Ixon gear yet, all textlie. It looks good, and stylie, would be good around town, not for touring though.

    Ixon have a very good name for themselves in europe, it might be inexpensive but it ain't cheap.

    How come you get a full set and your lady only gets a jacket?

    Lou,

    you may work at AMPS and have a commercial agenda to promote Spidi but I have found my Ixon gear to work well.

    My suit got tested at a track day and my textile gear is warm and keeps the water out.

    Simon.

    You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be quoted out of context, then used against you.

    You were saying about agendas?

    I imagine, like most things you get what you pay for. But not everyone always wants the best and greatest, sometimes cheap and cheerful does the trick.

    There's room for everyone, folks.

    Ixon gear is okay, Spidi is great but only if you want to pay multi Margins and pay for a name that someone on the otherside of the world owns.
    Come talk to me for a better performing set at half the price.....with my name on it

    Hows that for a sales speeell

    Great sales pitch,might just take you up on that one of these days.I'm an awkward size though being long and thin and all,how will I get the right fit? Like your leather pants,not so keen on the jackets designs though.Can you get them in different colours?

    I think I should avoid wearing Ixion clothing, least I get a knife in the back.
