Any one using the Pro One SFI 15 fire suit?
How does it compare to Sparco weight wise?
Any other good light weight options?
Thanks

I am pretty sure some of Pro 1 suits are from Alliance. If Jeff Hefler is putting his name on it, its a high quality suit. I personally will not buy another Sparco suit,I am already having issues with the zipper on my 1 year old -15 Sparco

The Sparco suits are nice but like another post said some functions do not hold up. Mine has a velcro waist band latch and it didn't last a year. Very disappointing.
I will be trying another brand next time for sure.

The Pro 1 Suits are NOT Alliance products.

Pro 1 suits ARE high quality. Hefler has built that reputation as you said.

I have used a PRO 1 15 suit for three years. I really like the suit. It is not a heavy suit. I had to get it altered for the length but that because of my short legs. I would definitely purchase another suit from them.

I just talked to Jeff and you are correct, he passed along some interesting info about Alliance too but I will keep it to myself.

I have several Pro-1 _5 suits and they are nice, light and comfortable. Bet the -15 is top notch to.

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.
